Eunice Pringle saw the man accused of sexually assaulting her, vaudeville and movie impressario Alexander Pantages, go to prison—and then Jerry Giesler jumped in and they had a retrial with a predominately male jury this time. Guess what? He was acquitted!

Along the way, Pantages' wife ends up convicted of a crime in the same courtroom, rumors swirl that Pringle died and left a deathbed confession admitting that Joseph P. Kennedy put her up to it, and Pringle releases one of the all-time great statements ever uttered when told that Pantages's conviction was overturned.

Jump in for another exhilarating ride through 100-year-old bad behavior that feels shockingly contemporary.
