Professor Moriarty (George Zucco) has at long last been brought to trial for murder. But the Napoleon of Crime is acquitted after the court finds a lack of sufficient evidence. Moments after the judge releases the defendant, Sherlock Holmes dashes into the courtroom with proof that will destroy Moriarty s alibi and send the professor to the gallows... or will it? (official distributor synopsis)
