About ’61st Street’ Season 2

In Season 1 of “61st Street” Franklin Roberts knew which side was right. He represented a young Black man mistaken for a gang member by a police force hell-bent on avenging the death of a fellow officer in a drug bust gone wrong. The case was incredibly difficult, but Roberts never once doubted that he was on the right side of the law, and of justice.

Season 2 will see Roberts equally convinced of his path, even if his community is not. He agrees to take the case of Officer Logan, a policeman who kills an innocent man. His goal is to expose and root out the deeper corruption lurking at the heart of Logan’s department, but observers, even his friends and family, quickly turn on Roberts for what they see as a betrayal.
