Murder. With aII the picturesque glamour of the 1940s, The Pardon recounts the unIikeIy true story of Toni Jo Henry (Jaime King), a woman tried three times and executed in Louisiana, 1942.
Surviving a Iegacy of chiIdhood abuse, which Iands her in the art deco brotheIs of the time, Toni Jo briefIy discovers love and happiness when she marries the dashing boxer Cowboy Henry (Jason Lewis). Cowboy is soon after sent to prison, leaving the bereft Toni Jo to embark on an ilI-fated mission with Cowboy s sometime partner Arkie (John Hawkes). A grisly murder and a series of sensational trials, where she pleads her innocence, instantly 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?
