About this film

In the first of the series, introduced by noted penologist Dr. Austin McCormack, Dr. Kelley establishes his definition of a criminal -- a person who endangers the life, liberty, or property of another. This thesis is the basis of the total approach to the problem in the whole series and is illustrated dramatically and humorously. (Description adapted from documents in the NET Microfiche)
