What is Darrow about?

1) Darrow gives a 12-hour closing speech pleading for mercy for Nathan Leopold and Richard Loeb, who were convicted of murder. 2) He argues that their upbringing and exposure to the brutality of World War I desensitized them to violence and that hanging them would not benefit society. 3) Darrow asks the judge to consider sparing the families of the defendants from lifelong shame and instead sentence the boys to life in prison so they have hope for eventual release.
