A Town Called Justice...

A Town Called Justice…

The Short of It…
A neo-noir crime thriller based in the fictional city of Justice, California. Taking inspiration from the likes of The Wire, The Sopranos, Pulp Fiction and Sin City; my hopes are to create a universe of gritty crime which is both surreal and realistic. We would play characters which can range from criminals, cops, civilians, whatever you feel could fit into this new world. Their isn’t an overarching plot, the storyline more so circulates on creating this universe and is extremely character driven.

The Story So Far
It began with one man. Francis McKenna was born in a small town in Ireland and shortly after his third birthday, he and his family migrated to the USA eventually settling in New Jersey. Over the years, the McKenna family managed to earn a respectable wealth through honest work and hard labour. Young Francis however, was greedy and ambitious. In a fit of rage after being denied his inheritance, Frank killed his father and stole his fortune. On the run, Francis adopted the guise of a traveller and eventually found himself in a strange land, California. It was the middle of the gold rush and the intelligent young Irishman saw an opportunity. Using his ill gotten gains, Frank eventually wound up financially backing the entire town and in essence bought it for less than a dollar.

From that day forward, the town now called Justice began its exponential growth. At first the money came from the mines and to surplus his miners, Frank brought in foreign prostitutes. When the gold dried up, real estate became the big money and soon Justice expanded into a large city. At the turn of the century, the town became the go to place for bootleggers. This insurgence of new blood brought in new revenues and new enemies for McKenna. The Italians, the Jewish, the Latino’s, the list only got longer but also with them came new revenues for making money. Over the span of several bloody decades, Justice evolved into a gambling and entertainment mecca but it had also became the apex for American crime.

The 80’s saw Justice become the breeding ground for yuppie greed and brought with it the new breed of clever criminal. After the economic downturn of the nineties, Justice was hit with urban decay and much of the town fell to recession. Now in the 21st century, the town has been almost split in two. One side for the rich and another for the poor. The McKenna family still holds much power over the city but there are always those trying to steal it. Despite it’s high crime rate, Justice has been relatively peaceful the last few years but the murder of one of the McKenna’s will light the flame and start a war to end all wars…
