If there's nothing wrong with him, why is he here? college freshman Tom Butterfield asks a doctor about an orphaned little boy. Rotten luck, is the reply. ]oeys mother and father were killed. The court couldn't find a foster home. They had to put him someplace. Someplace is the Missouri State Hospital, a facility for mentally ill men. Tom is appalled then outraged when joey is brutally raped by a patient. Tom and the doctor bend a few dozen rules to release joey into Toms care, an act of courage that starts Tom on a mission to provide hope and homes for more unwanted children. Fred Lehne (Lost) stars as Tom in this inspiring real-life story about the founding of Missouri's respected Butterfield Youth Ranches.
