Winner of a 2001 Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature, MURDER ON A SUNDAY MORNING is a compelling account of a reopened murder case, featuring a potentially incorrect suspect, and shocking tales of police corruption. Brenton Butler is the suspect, a 15 year old African-American accused of murdering Mary Ann Stephens in Jacksonville, Florida. Condemed by everyone involved with the case, his only lifeline is his lawyer, Patrick McGuiness, who reopens the case and uncovers some shocking revelations, and a distinct lack of concrete evidence against Butler.
