Lesley Ann Warren and Bruce Davison put in powerful performaces of a busy couple with two daughters, a teenager and i think a 10 year old Wendy. Carol the mom, must stay late at work one day and asks her older daughter Jill to pick up Wendy from school. Jill is late in picking her up. Wendy goes back inside the school and calls her mom, but before the call is completed, Frank, a janitor who Wendy has been friendly with, attacks,beats, and rapes her. Of course this the ultimate crime against the girl and family. Frank has beenin trouble with molestation charges in another state. The school only requires info about employees from a state wide view, so they had no knowledge of such charges. Things heat up when Franks charges against Wendy are dropped due to lack of evidence. Carol, the mom, in reaction to such news, spots a gun that becomes visible when she drops her purse and shoots Frank there in the court room who later dies in hospital. Quite a thriller!
