Matlock S09E01 - The Accused

Matlock defends Ellen Barrett, a reporter who claims to have killed a mobster in self-defense. However, the police are not convinced by her story and neither is Matlock when some things don't add up.

Matlock questions a journalist's motive for confessing to a murder she didn't commit. Thanks to some detective work by Jerri Stone, Matlock can approach the Barrett case from a new angle.
