Accused of Murder 1956 DVD - David Brian / Vera Ralston

When gangland lawyer Frank Hobart is murdered, two suspects emerge: Ilona Vance, a beautiful nightclub singer, and Stan, a hood hired by underworld boss Chad Bayliss. Attracted to Ilona, Lt. Detective Roy Hargis tries to protect her despite growing evidence and pressure from Sergeant Lackey. The case seems solved when Sandra Lamoreaux, a dance-hall girl who saw Stan at the scene, tries to blackmail him and is badly beaten. Sandra's story leads to Stan's capture and conviction—but he's not the real murderer. Now, it's up to Hargis to uncover the truth and determine Ilona's fate. Cast: - David Brian as Lt.
