"A Salute to the Law! To the men and women of the law, who uphold the law and protect the innocent. To the police, who fight crime and bring criminals to justice. To the lawyers, who defend the innocent and punish the guilty. To the judges, who interpret the law and dispense justice. To the juries, who weigh the evidence and render verdicts. To the people of America, who support the law and respect the rights of all citizens."
The show's episodes were typically 30 minutes long and featured a variety of crime stories, including murder, robbery, and assault. The show also featured stories about the law and how it is applied in everyday life.
