Murder. With all the picturesque glamour of the 1940s, The Pardon recounts the unIikely true story of Toni Jo Henry (Jaime King), a woman tried three times and executed in Louisiana, 1942.
Surviving a legacy of childhood abuse, which Iands her in the art deco brothels of the time, Toni Jo briefly discovers love and happiness when she marries the dashing boxer Cowboy Henry (Jason Lewis). Cowboy is soon after sent to prison, Ieaving the bereft Toni Jo to embark on an ilI-fated mission with Cowboy s sometime partner Arkie (John Hawkes). A grisIy murder and a series of sensational triaIs, where she pleads her innocence, instantIy makes the beautiful Toni Jo into a ceIebrity. Facing conviction after conviction, will she find true redemption in the face of the crimes for which she is accused?
