New York City detectives Madigan and Bernaro routinely raided an apartment, raiding the apartment where the criminal Benesh lived. When the two detectives opened the door, they were stunned by the nudity of his girlfriend, giving him a chance to take away their guns and escape. Two detectives also found that this was no ordinary routine raid. Benesh was actually a wanted murderer. For their officer, Russell, Benesh was not the only problem. Russell was not only abandoned by his mistress, but also accused of abuse of violence and corruption. Madigan and Bernaro had 72 hours to stop Bennett from banging her again.
