MCBRIDE
Five-time Emmy® Award winner John Larroquette returns to the Hallmark Channel Mystery Movie as hard-headed defense attorney Mike McBride who may have to expose the personal failings of his friend and mentor to save the young man accused of his murder in McBride, “Fallen Idol,” premiering on Hallmark Channel March 2006. McBride also stars Marta DuBois (“L.A. Law”) as no-nonsense plainclothes police detective Sergeant Roberta Hansen and Matt Lutz (“Murder Without Conviction”) as McBride’s young investigative partner Phil Newberry.

* “Fallen Idol”
McBride is shocked when famed defense attorney John Franks is stabbed to death outside his home. Franks had encouraged him to become a trial lawyer, taught him the tricks of the trade and was a good friend. The police have arrested a young Latino caught pawning Franks’ stolen Rolex. The situation grows complicated for McBride: the teenage suspect’s sister was Phil’s childhood friend and she wants McBride to defend her brother. The accused claims he had found the watch alongside the road near the crime scene when he took a motorcycle he had been repairing for a test drive. The kid has a clean reputation and McBride thinks it unlikely that he would stab a man 16 times to steal a watch. As he digs deeper into the case, he finds out that Franks did not lead a spotless personal life. With the evidence against his client mounting, McBride realizes that to win his case he may have to expose the secrets not only of his idol but of several people who were close to him.
