Renowned for his wit and eloquence, American lawyer Clarence Seward Darrow became one of the foremost attorneys of early 20th century America and defended many of the most famous trials of that time. His clients included wealthy teenage students Leopold and Loeb who were found guilty of kidnapping and murdering fellow student Bobby Franks in 1924 and teacher John T. Scopes who was found guilty of violating Tennessee's Butler act which prohibited the teaching of evolution in public schools in 1925.
