Top Notch Episode of "Public Defender"!
FloridaFred17 May 2023
Lots of intrigue, action, and suspense in this story. Plot lines include street thugs robbing and mugging pedestrians, a young hoodlum who refuses to cooperate with the Public Defender, and a gangster's complicated relationship with a popular news broadcaster.

This show features an outstanding lineup of guest stars, including John Doucette, Glen Lanagan ("The Amazing Colossal Man"), and a brief appearance by John Larch.

Per the plot summary, the local street thugs have been "organized" by somebody. The teenage criminals have become efficient, ruthless, and staunchly loyal to whoever is in charge.

Bart Matthews wants to defend his client (a teenager charged with assault with a deadly weapon), but he is more interested in exposing the person who is controlling the gangs. Working closely with Police Captain Lloyd Perry, Matthews is present at the climactic take-down.

I rate "Jackpot" 10 Stars.
