Billy, an orphaned child, is adored by the crew, but for unexplained reasons arouses the antagonism of John Claggart, who falsely accuses Billy of conspiracy to mutiny.
When Claggart brings his charges to the Captain, the Hon. Edward Fairfax “Starry” Vere, Vere summons both Claggart and Billy to his cabin for a private confrontation.
When, in Billy’s and Vere‘s presence, Claggart makes his false charges, Billy is unable to find the words to respond owing to a speech impediment(口吃).

Unable to express himself verbally, he strikes and accidentally kills Claggart.
Vere then convenes a court-martial. He acts as prosecutor, defense counsel and sole witness (except for Billy himself).
He then intervenes in the deliberations of the court-martial panel(全体陪审员) to argue them into convicting Billy, despite their and his belief in Billy's innocence before God. (As Vere says in the moments following Claggart's death, "Struck dead by an angel of God! Yet the angel must hang!")
Vere claims to be following the letter of the Mutiny Act and the Articles of War.
