The Sixth Day of Christmas - The Case For

The Sixth Day of Christmas - The Case For
Richie Buck returns to the correctional facility, only to discover that Santa’s arrest has turned the mailroom into a 24/7 operation, overwhelmed with letters from children who still believe. When he finally sits across from Santa, the jolly man drops the “ho, ho, ho” act and speaks like a regular person, revealing cracks of doubt, frustration, and fear beneath the persona the world expects him to uphold.
But Santa has bigger worries: his court-appointed attorney is a disaster. After a hilarious and deeply concerning encounter, Richie fires the public defender himself and replaces him with someone bold enough to take on the world’s most mythic client - a flashy, fearless, red-nosed (literally) defense attorney named Derek Rudolph. Equal parts showman and legal bulldog, Derek promises Santa will walk out “guilty free”… guaranteed.
Just as hope starts to rise, a mysterious caller summons Richie to a late-night meeting behind The Bacon Shack. There, a disguised informant delivers a bombshell: the blood on Santa’s sleigh wasn’t human at all. It belonged to a bird—an owl. If true, the entire case could unravel.
And then, as Richie’s mind reels, another message arrives. A green envelope. Block letters. No postage.
Inside, a summons to travel north. Far north.
Someone at the top of the world wants to see him.
With a new defense team, a shocking twist in the evidence, and a summons from the North Pole itself, Richie’s investigation is about to cross a line he can’t uncross.
It's like Santa Claus.
As a suspect.
On Dateline.
In the South.
