Synopsis
At some point in the near future (around 1993), law enforcement has become so ineffective that the only real hope for justice is an organization of bounty hunters known as C.O.P.S (Civilian Operated Police Systems) John Tucker (David Carradine), a Los Angeles bounty hunter sporting a metal arm piece capable of shooting lasers, is hired to protect a woman reporter (Anna Rapagna) from a gang of renegade cops. While Tucker is more interested in right defeating wrong than in payment for his services, he has become a bitter, washed up, drunken man due to all the corruption he has seen. The reporter has uncovered proof of the corruption and ineffectiveness of the police. Unfortunately, the bounty organization is run by a man who is also corrupt, and the C.O.P.S turn against the duo as well. Tucker does have an ally, Billy, who is a wheelchair bound computer genius.
