A Public Prosecutor and a Teacher (1948)

Falsely accused as the murderer of my own husband... Oh, the cruel machinations of fate!

A female teacher gives shelter to an escaped convict, but her husband, misconstruing her intentions, reacts violently and accidentally stabs himself to death in the process. The teacher is charged with her husband's murder, but fortunately the prosecutor on the case is a former student of hers, of whom she had taken painstaking care when she was working at an elementary school.
