At sixty-seven, Clarence Darrow faced a tarnished reputation but soon became embroiled in three high-profile trials that captivated the nation. He defended teenage murderers Nathan Leopold and Richard Loeb, participated in the landmark Scopes Monkey Trial regarding evolution versus creationism, and represented Ossian Sweet, an African American man charged with murder after defending his home from a white mob. Each case, labeled "the Trial of the Century," showcased Darrow's legal prowess and highlighted pressing social issues of the time.
