Lone Star Hate

The film explores the tragic murder of Nicholas West, shot dead in Tyler, East Texas by a teenage gang … because he was gay. Gripping interviews on Death Row capture the twilight world in which the three killers lived as the film follows the trial of the youngest of them, David McMillan. A story that defines “Hate Crime”. With the DA asking for the Death Penalty, this critically acclaimed film uncovers the truth about what happened that fateful night, and the context in which it happened. Since the making of the film, two of the protagonists, Donald Aldrich and Henry Dunn, have been executed.
