In Tulsa, Oklahoma, during the Great Depression, a young Phil Kennamer, the son of a prominent federal court judge, is lovesick for Virginia Wilcox, the teenage daughter of an oil millionaire. Phil is obsessed and will do anything to win her heart. But she has no interest in him. Phil learns of a plot to kidnap Virginia for ransom. He feels compelled to protect her and her family from harm. He intervenes with an unconventional plan to stop it. But the intervention goes awry. John Gorrell, the conspirator and son of a well known Tulsa physician, is killed in a wealthy neighborhood on Thanksgiving evening in 1934. The murder stuns the city. Phil confesses to the killing but declares it was in self-defense. Days later, Phil's friend, Sidney Born, is dead with a bullet to the head. Was his death a suicide? Or was it Gorrell's gang looking for revenge? Regardless, a key witness has been silenced. And Sidney's death sends the residents into a state of panic. Who will die next? A true story of a forgotten crime that made national headlines, Murder in the Name of Love: The Phil Kennamer Trial is full of intrigue and drama as Phil's attorneys battle to save his life. But will the jury believe that this teenager is a hero or see him as a cold-blooded murderer?
