Nicest Fella You'd Ever Want to Meet

Richard Kimble fährt per Anhalter in die Kleinstadt Bixton. Dem örtlichen Marshal Sims erscheint er sofort verdächtig, worauf der ihn kurzerhand wegen Landstreicherei festnimmt. Nach außen wahrt Marshal Sims den Schein des freundlichen Gesetzeshüters, in Wirklichkeit behandelt er die Häftlinge grausam und brutal. Bald wird Kimble Zeuge von Sims Skrupellosigkeit und gerät dabei selbst in große Gefahr. (Text: Premiere)

While traveling though a small town in Arizona, Kimble is arrested by the brutal and sadistic Sheriff Jo Bob Sims whom has political ambitions. Sheriff Sims (unaware of Kimble's true identity) subjects him to slave labor with a group of other vagrants he arrests on a daily basis for no reason other than to torture or humiliate them. When Kimble witnesses Sims murder another prisoner and has the equally corrupt mayor and town council cover it up to look like an accident, Kimble becomes aware that his own life is in danger.
