If you like police dramas you should like this one. Jesse Stone has been forced to retire early because the town council didn't like his policies concerning enforcement. In this film Jesse is out to find why a young friend of his (a girl named Cindy) has been found dead about a mile from his place. Supposedly she died from a drug over dose. His investigation leads him to several interesting finds. Turns out the rehab place she went to was just a semi sham. They let their patients go with drug prescriptions to replace (?) the addictions. One of the ex aides at the place used it to recruit drug addled girls as hookers. Cindy was one of them. Stone gets the scum bag in a hotel room stripped to his boxers. He is told to quit or die. Stone kills him when he breaks into Jesse's house armed to the teeth, I guess for revenge. This movie is also where Jesse's police chief replacement shows up. He is a real political tool, hired because of his relationship as the son in law of the head council member. Stone is again hired by the state to look into a murder case. Jesse investigates and finds out the guy is innocent of the murder charge but is guilty of a rape just a few minutes before the robbery/murder.
