  Speaker 5: she happened to find the body.
• 7:23
  Speaker 6: The bodies just as you found it, Missus Wilford. You
• 7:25

• 9:33
  Speaker 10: Of them, I know, for ten years it's been like this.
• 9:36
  Speaker 11: There were many of them, young women. Joseph didn't try
• 9:41
  Speaker 11: to hide it from me. I knew all about it.
• 9:43
  Speaker 5: And you continued to live with your husband all this time.
• 9:45
  Speaker 6: Man, I did.
• 9:47
  Speaker 10: He'd bring the girls to the shop here.
• 9:50
  Speaker 11: Sometimes when they'd come, I'd go away for a while.
• 9:55
  Speaker 11: After they were gone, I'd come back Joseph and I
• 9:57
  Speaker 11: would never talk about it.
• 9:59
  Speaker 9: You mean you never had any arguments with your husband
• 10:01
  Speaker 9: about the women.
• 10:03
  Speaker 11: No, he never lied to me about the girls he
• 10:06
  Speaker 11: had them, that's all. This was something he expected me
• 10:10
  Speaker 11: to understand.
• 10:11
  Speaker 6: I see you say you knew several of these women
• 10:13
  Speaker 6: your husband went out with. Could you give us their names?
• 10:15
  Speaker 5: Please?
• 10:16
  Speaker 11: Yes, there's an address book upstairs in Joseph's desk.
• 10:18
  Speaker 10: The names are in there.
• 10:19
  Speaker 5: I see.
• 10:20
  Speaker 9: Would you mind joining us that address book now?
• 10:22
  Speaker 5: Please?
• 10:22
  Speaker 10: Yes, we can go upstairs. I'll get it for you.
• 10:25
  Speaker 6: There's one question I'd like to ask you, Missus Wilfrid,
• 10:30
  Speaker 6: about your husband.
• 10:32
  Speaker 12: Ma'am.
• 10:33
  Speaker 11: I don't know, hurt very much at first, and then
• 10:39
  Speaker 11: by and by didn't hurt so much.
• 10:43
  Speaker 10: Time, I guess. Beg your pardon if you want.
• 10:49
  Speaker 11: To get used to anything, Yes, ma'am, even a man
• 10:53
  Speaker 11: who doesn't love you anymore.
• 11:01
  Speaker 5: We went upstairs to the housekeeping rooms, where Missus Wilfrid
• 11:04
  Speaker 5: gave us her husband's personal address book. She also gave
• 11:07
  Speaker 5: us a description of his wristwatch, which had been removed
• 11:09
  Speaker 5: from the body, along with the name of the jeweler
• 11:11
  Speaker 5: who'd sold her the watch. It was a Hamilton with
• 11:13
  Speaker 5: a diamond studded dial. The crime lab crew arrived downstairs
• 11:17
  Speaker 5: and began their routine investigation. We finished questioning the victim's wife,
• 11:21
  Speaker 5: and then we started checking the neighborhood. Only a few
• 11:23
  Speaker 5: of the stores in the area were still open. We
• 11:26
  Speaker 5: found only one possible witness, a newsboy who told us
• 11:29
  Speaker 5: that he'd seen an attractive, dark haired woman enter the
• 11:31
  Speaker 5: store earlier in the night, at about eight thirty p m.
• 11:34
  Speaker 5: His description of her was only sketchy. Another hour of
• 11:37
  Speaker 5: checking the neighborhood and we went back to the store.
• 11:40
  Speaker 5: Lieutenant Lee Jones and the crime lab crew finished checking
• 11:43
  Speaker 5: over the entire layout. They went back downtown to give
• 11:45
  Speaker 5: a thorough examination to what physical evidence that they'd found.
• 11:48
  Speaker 5: The deputy coroner arrived and removed the body. Together with
• 11:51
  Speaker 5: hubcun Forbes from Homicide, Ben and I spent most of
• 11:54
  Speaker 5: the next day checking with store owners in the immediate
• 11:56
  Speaker 5: neighborhood of Wilfrid's Haberdashery. They could tell us nothing we
• 11:59
  Speaker 5: had already found out. We got the description and serial
• 12:02
  Speaker 5: numbers of the victim's missing wristwatch, notified the pawn shop detail,
• 12:05
  Speaker 5: and got out a broadcast on it. Three forty five pm.
• 12:09
  Speaker 5: We checked with the office.
• 12:12
  Speaker 6: We've got a slow enough start on this thing. Huh.
• 12:14
  Speaker 6: Everybody tells it's the same story.
• 12:16
  Speaker 5: Yeah, seems to be pretty common know age. He had
• 12:18
  Speaker 5: a lot of girlfriends. I guess we better start checking
• 12:20
  Speaker 5: out the names of that address book. Huh.
• 12:22
  Speaker 6: Yeah, her beats all doesn't in jail?
• 12:26
  Speaker 5: What's that?
• 12:27
  Speaker 6: Missus will for ten years? Her husband's dating other women
• 12:29
  Speaker 6: right in front of her isn't normal? And see why
• 12:32
  Speaker 6: she didn't just pack up and leave.
• 12:34
  Speaker 5: It's kind of hard to figure that maybe she was
• 12:36
  Speaker 5: still in love with him. Wonder how Forbes and Hubco
• 12:38
  Speaker 5: made out.
• 12:38
  Speaker 6: I checked the books. If we got a call?
• 12:40
  Speaker 9: Yeah, see, no, no word from her?
• 12:45
  Speaker 6: No? Lee Jones called from the crime lab wants us
• 12:47
  Speaker 6: to check with him. I call him two six six
• 12:53
  Speaker 6: seventh please, that's right.
• 12:54
  Speaker 5: I guess we better check with the morgue too. Huh.
• 12:56
  Speaker 5: See if they got the body posted yet?
• 12:58
  Speaker 6: Yeah? I leave from maryl Oh, what was did you
• 13:03
  Speaker 6: get the name? I see? All right, I'm buy what
• 13:08
  Speaker 6: do you have? Lee talked to the corner already. Wilfred
• 13:10
  Speaker 6: died about nine o'clock because of death with strangulation.
• 13:13
  Speaker 9: How about those wounds in the head and on the neck.
• 13:15
  Speaker 6: That didn't do it. The cloth died around his neck
• 13:18
  Speaker 6: was a woman's slip for her?
• 13:19
  Speaker 9: Or did you pick up anything off at any laundry marks?
• 13:21
  Speaker 6: And he did better than that. Yeah, we got the
• 13:23
  Speaker 6: name of the laundry.
• 13:25
  Speaker 5: After checking for all stains and markings on the woman's slip,
• 13:28
  Speaker 5: which had been found knotted around the murder victim's neck,
• 13:31
  Speaker 5: Lee Jones had examined it under a special fluorescent light.
• 13:34
  Speaker 5: He found a type of marking used by only one
• 13:36
  Speaker 5: large laundry service in the city. We checked with the
• 13:38
  Speaker 5: managers of the laundry company and found that the slip
• 13:41
  Speaker 5: had been cleaned by them for a miss Elised Dressler.
• 13:44
  Speaker 5: She had a North Hudson Street address. We started checking
• 13:46
  Speaker 5: on her. The first lead came from the dead man's
• 13:49
  Speaker 5: personal address book. We found the name of Elisee Dressler
• 13:52
  Speaker 5: listed along with her address and telephone number. There was
• 13:55
  Speaker 5: a single word scribbled beside her name and enclosed with parentheses.
• 13:59
  Speaker 5: It said Max. That was all five forty two pm.
• 14:03
  Speaker 5: We drove out to the address, a Spanish style apartment
• 14:05
  Speaker 5: house on North Hudson. We rang but there was no answer.
• 14:08
  Speaker 5: The apartment manager told us Miss Dresler worked as a
• 14:11
  Speaker 5: dancer at the nightclub on West Seventh Street. Ben and
• 14:13
  Speaker 5: I drove to the club, a high price theater restaurant,
• 14:16
  Speaker 5: which was newly opened. We were told the least dressler
• 14:18
  Speaker 5: wasn't due there until nine pm. We had a couple
• 14:21
  Speaker 5: of ham and cheese sandwhich isn't some coffee at a
• 14:23
  Speaker 5: lunch cotter, and we checked back at the club a
• 14:24
  Speaker 5: few minutes past nine. The show was already started. We
• 14:28
  Speaker 5: located the dressler girl in her room backstage. She was
• 14:31
  Speaker 5: a tall, fairly attractive blonde. We started questioning.
• 14:34
  Speaker 6: Her, Can you tell us where you were last night? Miss?
• 14:36
  Speaker 12: Yeah?
• 14:37
  Speaker 13: All right here I work every night at Monday.
• 14:38
  Speaker 5: We closed in What time did you get here last night?
• 14:41
  Speaker 13: Just about eight o'clock. I had something to eat and
• 14:43
  Speaker 13: a change in my costume, went to work.
• 14:44
  Speaker 6: Do you know if mister and Wilfrid had any enemies? No,
• 14:47
  Speaker 6: maybe somebody was having trouble with No.
• 14:49
  Speaker 13: Oh, maybe that wife of his. Is none of my business.
• 14:51
  Speaker 13: I wouldn't know.
• 14:52
  Speaker 5: You can't think of anybody at all or might want
• 14:54
  Speaker 5: him out of the way.
• 14:55
  Speaker 14: No, I don't think so. He and Max Hollins had
• 14:57
  Speaker 14: some arguments. But that's only time I saw Joe mad
• 14:59
  Speaker 14: at anybody. This Max Hollins, he's the man who arranged
• 15:01
  Speaker 14: for me to come out from New York.
• 15:03
  Speaker 13: Joe Max been friends for a long time.
• 15:04
  Speaker 6: What were the arguments about Miss Tresler? Do you remember?
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 15:07
  Speaker 13: About me?
• 15:08
  Speaker 14: You see, Max brought me out here, and I suppose
• 15:09
  Speaker 14: at first he thought he owned me. He think I
• 15:11
  Speaker 14: should go out with any other men but him.
• 15:13
  Speaker 13: Max's Steven sometimes was so my I like Wilford, so
• 15:16
  Speaker 13: I went out with him. I went out with Max too.
• 15:18
  Speaker 5: Well, these arguments they had about you, would you say
• 15:20
  Speaker 5: that they were pretty mad at each other? Max and
• 15:22
  Speaker 5: this mister Wilfrid.
• 15:23
  Speaker 14: Well, last week Max was very angry with Joe, but
• 15:26
  Speaker 14: I think he got over it.
• 15:27
  Speaker 13: Could we talk together later. It's almost time for me
• 15:29
  Speaker 13: to go on.
• 15:29
  Speaker 10: I'm been to get outside.
• 15:30
  Speaker 5: Oh sure, excuse me, I'll get it. We'll wait backstage
• 15:34
  Speaker 5: here for you, Miss Tresler. Is that all right?
• 15:36
  Speaker 10: Yeah?
• 15:37
  Speaker 13: Fine? Oh that's all right. I still have a few minutes.
• 15:40
  Speaker 5: Well, how about the last time you were in Wilfrid's store,
• 15:42
  Speaker 5: Miss Tresler? Can you remember that?
• 15:44
  Speaker 14: Not exactly at least six months ago? I hardly ever
• 15:47
  Speaker 14: went to see Joe there.
• 15:47
  Speaker 6: Did you ever have any occasion to leave any clothing
• 15:50
  Speaker 6: with Wilfrid and his store? Maybe for cleaning alteration?
• 15:53
  Speaker 13: No, I never left him. Maybe it's possible they could
• 15:55
  Speaker 13: be there.
• 15:56
  Speaker 5: What do you mean?
• 15:57
  Speaker 13: I have some nice slips?
• 15:58
  Speaker 10: You know?
• 15:58
  Speaker 14: First I sent him out, but Joe saying you're a
• 16:00
  Speaker 14: very nice French laundry to do him? He come to
• 16:02
  Speaker 14: my place to pick him up and then take him
• 16:03
  Speaker 14: to the laundry. Maybe he could have left him in
• 16:05
  Speaker 14: his shop one day.
• 16:06
  Speaker 5: Well, would anybody besides yourself have access to the clothes
• 16:09
  Speaker 5: in your apartment? Maybe a roommate?
• 16:10
  Speaker 13: No, I live by myself.
• 16:12
  Speaker 14: I have the only key to the door except Max Hollands,
• 16:14
  Speaker 14: he's got one.
• 16:15
  Speaker 13: It is my apartment house see upstairs floor. Nobody else
• 16:18
  Speaker 13: had the key.
• 16:18
  Speaker 6: Could you send any clothing to the French laundry with
• 16:20
  Speaker 6: mister Wilfrid recently?
• 16:22
  Speaker 14: Yesterday I did two nice slips of mine. But Joe
• 16:24
  Speaker 14: Wilford didn't call him. I send him over with Max.
• 16:26
  Speaker 5: How'd that happen?
• 16:27
  Speaker 14: Max said he might as well take him. He was
• 16:29
  Speaker 14: going down that neighborhood by the habitash room and I
• 16:31
  Speaker 14: want to see Wilford anyway, Max that he wanted to
• 16:33
  Speaker 14: fix up their argument.
• 16:39
  Speaker 5: We continued questioning the Dressler girl after she finished her
• 16:42
  Speaker 5: first act at the theater restaurant. She told us that
• 16:44
  Speaker 5: she hadn't seen Max Hollands since early the day before.
• 16:47
  Speaker 5: She was taken downtown, where she gave us a full statement.
• 16:50
  Speaker 5: Further questioning got us the information that the argument between
• 16:52
  Speaker 5: the two men, Joseph Wilfrid and Max Hollins over the
• 16:55
  Speaker 5: affections of Elice Dressler, was far from settled. At their
• 16:58
  Speaker 5: last meeting. The girl admitted that it was a serious
• 17:01
  Speaker 5: argument and that it ended up in a fistfight between
• 17:03
  Speaker 5: the two men. She said Max Hollins was out of
• 17:05
  Speaker 5: town for the night, but that he'd return early the
• 17:07
  Speaker 5: next evening for work. He was employed as manager of
• 17:10
  Speaker 5: a room service department at a large downtown hotel. Eleven
• 17:14
  Speaker 5: thirty pm, Ben and I drove back to the apartment
• 17:17
  Speaker 5: house on North Hudson, and together with a building manager,
• 17:19
  Speaker 5: we checked Max Holland's apartment. We found nothing. The manager
• 17:22
  Speaker 5: told us Holland's car was parked in the apartment garage,
• 17:25
  Speaker 5: so we went down and gave it a routine check
• 17:27
  Speaker 5: under the front seat, we found a paper bag with
• 17:29
  Speaker 5: a pair of gloves in it. There were bloodstains on
• 17:31
  Speaker 5: both gloves. We dropped him off at the crime lab
• 17:34
  Speaker 5: for examination. At six o'clock the following night, Ben and
• 17:37
  Speaker 5: I went to the room service department of the Downtown
• 17:39
  Speaker 5: hotel where Hollins was employed.
• 17:42
  Speaker 15: Sorry, said mister Hollins is late, this seitting. It should
• 17:44
  Speaker 15: be here pretty soon.
• 17:45
  Speaker 6: You notify you had been late.
• 17:46
  Speaker 15: Well, he caught. Yes, probably be here in ten to
• 17:48
  Speaker 15: fifteen minutes. I'm his assistant, can help it.
• 17:50
  Speaker 5: No, it's all right, we'll wait, all right, pardon me,
• 17:53
  Speaker 5: I wonder if we could look at your wristwatch.
• 17:54
  Speaker 15: Please, surely it's just a few minutes past it.
• 17:56
  Speaker 5: We just wanted to look at the watch if we
• 17:58
  Speaker 5: call sure here, could you take it off, like, look
• 18:01
  Speaker 5: at the back of it if it's all right?
• 18:02
  Speaker 15: Sure, that's all right, Yeah, that's looking at it.
• 18:06
  Speaker 6: Just got it yesterday, that's all same. Engraving agonist to Joseph.
• 18:11
  Speaker 5: Where'd you get this watch? Sir? All right? What's the matter?
• 18:13
  Speaker 5: Where'd you get it?
• 18:14
  Speaker 15: Max Hollins? He sold it.
• 18:15
  Speaker 4: Tommy, You are listening to Dragnet. Actual stories from official
• 18:30
  Speaker 4: police files.
• 18:39
  Speaker 5: February twenty first, Friday, six thirty pm, we called the
• 18:43
  Speaker 5: office and notified them that we'd located the wristwatch taken
• 18:45
  Speaker 5: from the body of the murder victim, Joseph Wilfrid. A
• 18:48
  Speaker 5: stakeout was placed on the North Hudson Street department house.
• 18:51
  Speaker 5: Ben and I stayed on at the hotel waiting the
• 18:53
  Speaker 5: return of the murder suspect, Max Hollands. We talked to
• 18:56
  Speaker 5: his assistant and found out that Hollins had a room
• 18:58
  Speaker 5: in the hotel where he could sleep whenever he was
• 19:00
  Speaker 5: called on to work. Late at night, six fifty five pm,
• 19:04
  Speaker 5: we called the office back and asked for a couple
• 19:06
  Speaker 5: of men to be sent over to check the suspects room.
• 19:08
  Speaker 5: A few minutes later, Hollins himself showed up for work.
• 19:11
  Speaker 5: Apparently he'd been doing some drinking. Ben and I questioned
• 19:14
  Speaker 5: him at his desk to stall for time until him
• 19:16
  Speaker 5: in from the office could get to the hotel and
• 19:17
  Speaker 5: make a thorough check of the suspects room. Hollins was
• 19:20
  Speaker 5: kept busy on the phone taking room service orders from
• 19:23
  Speaker 5: the hotel guests. In between calls we talked to him.
• 19:28
  Speaker 8: I left a lease in the apartment, and then I
• 19:29
  Speaker 8: took a few pieces of laundery. She hadn't dropped them
• 19:31
  Speaker 8: off at Wilfrid's store. It was about six o'clock Wednesday night.
• 19:34
  Speaker 6: You mentioned the address a girl you wanted to see
• 19:36
  Speaker 6: mister Wilford. You wanted to patch up an argument you'd
• 19:38
  Speaker 6: had with him.
• 19:39
  Speaker 8: Yes, I just wanted to make sure he didn't have
• 19:40
  Speaker 8: any bad feelings about it. Really wasn't much of an argument.
• 19:43
  Speaker 5: How long did you stay at Wilfrid's store, mister Hollins,
• 19:45
  Speaker 5: Do you remember then?
• 19:46
  Speaker 8: Twenty minutes, maybe a half hour. We talked and we
• 19:48
  Speaker 8: had a glass of wine in the back room. No,
• 19:51
  Speaker 8: it was upstairs. We drank the wine and everything was
• 19:54
  Speaker 8: all right. I guess it was about half past six
• 19:56
  Speaker 8: when I left the store. It was all right then.
• 19:58
  Speaker 5: Well, did anybody come in the store when you were there?
• 20:00
  Speaker 8: No, there's nobody.
• 20:01
  Speaker 6: How about missus Wilford. Was he in the store at
• 20:03
  Speaker 6: all during the time you were there on Wednesday?
• 20:05
  Speaker 8: No? He said she was gone for the day, she'd
• 20:07
  Speaker 8: be back later on. We finished our talk and I left.
• 20:10
  Speaker 8: The last time I saw Joseph, it was a terrible
• 20:13
  Speaker 8: thing for somebody to kill him excuse me again, please,
• 20:19
  Speaker 8: room service. May I help you? Please? Yes, sir, Yes, sir, Well,

  Speaker 6: Yes, sir. Something else we'd like to find out.
• 20:58
  Speaker 8: Only one years ago I came here to the hotel.
• 21:01
  Speaker 8: It was nothing that was serving garbage, bad service, very bad.
• 21:04
  Speaker 8: I built our staff one by one.
• 21:06
  Speaker 5: I did it.

  Speaker 8: There's our staff list. There find us waiters in the country.
• 21:11
  Speaker 8: Henry Sanchez, Fred LaSalle, Conrad Lutz, jos Wick, Yes, and
• 21:15
  Speaker 8: Elma Creighton. He waited on the President when he came
• 21:18
  Speaker 8: to visit here from Washington. The President thought so much
• 21:21
  Speaker 8: of our service he wrote a letter to elim later
• 21:23
  Speaker 8: on no argument at all. I have the best spend
• 21:26
  Speaker 8: in the country, the best food. Twenty one years to
• 21:28
  Speaker 8: make it like it is, I did it all myself.
• 21:31
  Speaker 5: I understand you and Wilfrid were old friends, mister Hollins.
• 21:33
  Speaker 5: He knew him quite a number of years, all right.
• 21:35
  Speaker 8: Most of his life. Yes, I knew Joseph in the
• 21:37
  Speaker 8: Old Country. We came from the same town. Terrible thing
• 21:41
  Speaker 8: that's happened. I always liked Joseph a good friend.
• 21:45
  Speaker 6: What about these arguments you had with him lately about
• 21:47
  Speaker 6: the girl at least dressler amount anything.
• 21:49
  Speaker 8: No, but it showed something typical of Joseph. Maybe it
• 21:53
  Speaker 8: was the business he was in dollars, it's all he
• 21:55
  Speaker 8: thought about the big dollar. He knew he had more
• 21:58
  Speaker 8: money than I did. He thought he could do anything
• 22:00
  Speaker 8: with it. About the girl, Elise I took a visit
• 22:04
  Speaker 8: to the Old Country three years ago, Spausbourg.
• 22:07
  Speaker 6: That's where I.
• 22:07
  Speaker 8: Learned my trade from the best matrids in Europe. I
• 22:11
  Speaker 8: met Elisea on my way back in New York. You
• 22:14
  Speaker 8: can check up and all my background. I worked at
• 22:17
  Speaker 8: the Grand Hotel in Bustles, that's when it was the best.
• 22:21
  Speaker 8: I was at the Carlton in London, and I went

  Speaker 5: All a pair of gloves you were wearing. We found
• 25:12
  Speaker 5: him the risk watch he took off the body. We
• 25:13
  Speaker 5: found that too. Yeah, you want to tell us about it.
• 25:19
  Speaker 8: I didn't use good sense. I didn't know what to
• 25:22
  Speaker 8: do when I went to see him, but I didn't
• 25:26
  Speaker 8: have it in my mind to kill him. God knows.
• 25:29
  Speaker 8: I tried to talk to him. I asked him please
• 25:32
  Speaker 8: to stay away from the least. I asked him as
• 25:35
  Speaker 8: a friend. All he said to me was Max, I
• 25:39
  Speaker 8: give her presents and she likes me. I have the
• 25:41
  Speaker 8: money to give her what she wants me. You haven't
• 25:43
  Speaker 8: got the money. That's what he said to me. He
• 25:46
  Speaker 8: had a fight with him, then, No, there wasn't any fight.
• 25:50
  Speaker 8: I'm not sorry I killed him, but I'm not sorry.
• 25:54
  Speaker 5: You want to give us a statement about it downtown.

  Speaker 8: I suppose I'm not ashamed of it.
• 25:58
  Speaker 9: All right, let's go down this way.
• 26:02
  Speaker 8: Any man would have done the same How could you
• 26:05
  Speaker 8: hear such talk and not kill him?
• 26:07
  Speaker 6: How about the rest watch she took off of him,
• 26:09
  Speaker 6: the money from the drawer.
• 26:10
  Speaker 8: I wanted to hurt him more, even after he was dead.
• 26:13
  Speaker 8: After I beat him and beat him, I knew it
• 26:16
  Speaker 8: would be the worst way to hurt Joseph to take
• 26:18
  Speaker 8: his money.
• 26:19
  Speaker 6: Here we are and then back out.
• 26:22
  Speaker 8: Yeah, sergeant, Yeah, I've told you now.
• 26:32
  Speaker 6: I killed him.
• 26:34
  Speaker 8: Don't you think I had a right to kill him.
• 26:36
  Speaker 5: I wouldn't know, but he was like that.
• 26:39
  Speaker 8: The first time you met Joseph, you would know he
• 26:41
  Speaker 8: was bad. It was better for everybody for him to die.
• 26:46
  Speaker 8: First time you met him, you would know that.
• 26:48
  Speaker 5: I'm sorry, I wouldn't know, mister Wow. The only time
• 26:51
  Speaker 5: I met him, he was dead.
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: The story you have just heard was true. The names
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: were changed to protect the innocent.
• 27:06
  Speaker 4: On June fourth, trial was held in Superior Court, Department
• 27:08
  Speaker 4: eighty nine, City and County of Los Angeles, State of California.
• 27:12
  Speaker 4: In a moment the results of that trial, Max Hollins
• 27:24
  Speaker 4: was tried and convicted of murder in the first degree.
• 27:26
  Speaker 4: He was executed in the lethal gas chamber of the
• 27:28
  Speaker 4: State Penitentiary San Quentin, California. You have just heard Dragnet,
• 27:42
  Speaker 4: a series of authentic cases from official files. Technical advice
• 27:45
  Speaker 4: comes from the Office of Chief of Police W. H. Parker,
• 27:48
  Speaker 4: Los Angeles Police Department.
• 27:59
  Speaker 15: Statue for Counterspy next on NBC.
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: Welcome Back. I would feel a bit more sorry for
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: the assistant getting taken for that stolen watch. But it
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: did have that engraving which should have been a clue.
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: But that he wouldn't even think to Jack perhaps speaks
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: to the amount of respect that the killer had within
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: his industry, and sadly forthited. I have no doubt about
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: the victim being a bad person independent of him and
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: whether you could tell it or not. If you really
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: could tell it first time you talked to him, then
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: the question is what were you doing being his friend
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: for so many years. I have noticed that the way
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: the episodes tend to work, if Herfield plays a character
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: than Lee Jones will not end up appearing in the episode,
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: even if he is providing key information. It will all
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: just be carried forward by exposition, listener comments and feedback.
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: Now and we have an email here from David and
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: he's emailing regarding the episode The Big Crazy. Hi, Adam,
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: I've heard this episode before, but it didn't hit me
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: until this time that it's basically a Dragnet Halloween episode,
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: although it was broadcast in August. Besides the reference to
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: Markim that you noted, there are a lot of Edgar
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: Allan Poe references. The name of the murdered woman is Bernice,
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: which is similar to the titular character in Poe's story Bernice,
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: which is about a mentally disturbed man whose fiance is
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: thought to be dead but who actually isn't. The when
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: sisters are reminiscent of post story William Wilson, which is
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: about doppel gangers and death, although a very different way
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: from this episode imposed story The Black Cat, the main
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: character and his wife have a cat that the main
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: character murders. He then murders his wife and her body
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: is discovered because of the meowing of a supernatural cat.
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: The scene where the mentally disturbed husband, which is with
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: the two policemen and gradually acts more and more erratic
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: until he confesses to a murder, is straight out of
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: the Telltale Heart. Since this is Dragnet, this case must
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: have been based on a real life event, but I
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: would really love to know how close it was to
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: the true story and how many references to Paul were
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: worked into the story, or if I'm just seeing patterns
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: where none exists. As always, thanks for your podcast and
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: the undless hours of entertainment you bring us. Well, that
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: is a really insightful email, David, and not something I'd
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: picked up on because it was Dragnet. But I can
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: see where you're coming from, and it makes sense to
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: notice that, you know, as it was released this year
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: or right around Halloween time. As with most Dragnet cases,
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: it's particularly rare for us to have a firm knowledge of, Oh, yeah,
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: this is the case they were talking about. We don't know.
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: If I were to speculate, I'd imagine that there were
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: portions of the story that were very reminiscent. I mean,
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: even if you get to the ending where the man
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: breaks down, confesses and kills himself because of someone pretending
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: to be his dead wife and him being a somewhat
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: disturbed mystery fan, it really would suggest that type of treatment.
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: But it would be interesting to know, like where is
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: the fiction and where is the reality. If I were
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: to bet, I would think that the cat was something
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: the writer's created based on what was there, But who knows.
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: Thanks so much for the question. And then we also
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: have a comment regarding our best of the twenty twenty
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: four to twenty five season of this coming from Spotify.
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: Doctor who Done It wrote the Mister and Missus North
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: episode was like the Twilight Zone for some reason. The
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: addition of jazz music made it extra creepy. It's an
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: interesting choice when it comes to creepy or scary music.
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: There are a lot of choices out there. Classic there
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: are certain pieces of classical music or other type of
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: organ or orchestral music that can create this sort of
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: moody atmosphere. But where jazz I think can really work
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: in that context is it works in another way just
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: kind of to create that sort of feeling of alarm
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: and panic, you know, when it comes at you with
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: that really fast pace, much more like a frantic build.
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: But I definitely agree the music was a big part
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: of what made that episode work. All right, Well, now
• 33:32
