00:00.000 --> 00:11.880
The story you are about to hear is true.

00:11.880 --> 00:15.960
Only the names have been changed to protect the innocent.

00:15.960 --> 00:31.400
Fatima cigarettes, best of all long cigarettes, brings you dragnet.

00:31.400 --> 00:33.520
You're a detective sergeant.

00:33.520 --> 00:36.280
You're assigned to homicide detail.

00:36.280 --> 00:40.800
A police officer is shot down on the front steps of his home.

00:40.800 --> 00:43.560
There's no apparent motive for the shooting.

00:43.560 --> 00:46.640
The assailant escapes in a blue sedan.

00:46.640 --> 00:49.080
Your job, get him.

00:49.080 --> 00:54.400
It's amazing how many long cigarette smokers are changing to Fatima.

00:54.400 --> 00:56.240
Here is the actual report.

00:56.240 --> 01:01.480
From coast to coast, king-sized Fatima has more than doubled its smokers.

01:01.480 --> 01:09.000
Yes, more and more smokers every day are discovering that Fatima is the best of all long cigarettes.

01:09.000 --> 01:15.280
Long cigarette smokers find Fatima has a much different, much better flavor and aroma.

01:15.280 --> 01:20.960
Long cigarette smokers find that Fatima is extra mild because it's the long cigarette

01:20.960 --> 01:27.400
which contains the finest Turkish and domestic tobaccos superbly blended to make it extra

01:27.400 --> 01:28.400
mild.

01:28.400 --> 01:32.040
So enjoy extra mild Fatima.

01:32.040 --> 01:34.680
Best of all long cigarettes.

01:34.680 --> 01:39.680
It's wise to smoke extra mild Fatima.

01:39.680 --> 01:47.840
Dragnet, the documented drama of an actual crime.

01:47.840 --> 01:51.720
For the next 30 minutes in cooperation with the Los Angeles Police Department, you will

01:51.720 --> 01:56.080
travel step by step on the side of the law through an actual case from official police

01:56.080 --> 01:57.080
files.

01:57.080 --> 02:03.120
From beginning to end, from crime to punishment, Dragnet is the story of your police force

02:03.120 --> 02:05.120
in action.

02:05.120 --> 02:08.520
It was Sunday, May 23rd.

02:08.520 --> 02:09.520
Was warm in Los Angeles.

02:09.520 --> 02:12.240
We were working the day watch out of homicide.

02:12.240 --> 02:13.400
My partner is Ben Romero.

02:13.400 --> 02:15.440
The boss is Thad Brown, chief of detectives.

02:15.440 --> 02:16.440
My name is Friday.

02:16.440 --> 02:19.560
I was off duty reporting back in on an emergency call.

02:19.560 --> 02:23.720
It was five minutes past 3 a.m. when I got to room 42.

02:23.720 --> 02:24.720
Homicide.

02:24.720 --> 02:25.720
Hi, Joe.

02:25.720 --> 02:26.720
Hi.

02:26.720 --> 02:27.720
How is he?

02:27.720 --> 02:28.720
He's dead.

02:28.720 --> 02:31.720
Well, went kind of fast.

02:31.720 --> 02:33.920
I just got the call a couple of minutes ago.

02:33.920 --> 02:34.920
He died and went to the hospital.

02:34.920 --> 02:35.920
Friday, Ben.

02:35.920 --> 02:36.920
Let's go.

02:36.920 --> 02:37.920
Thad Brown's office.

02:37.920 --> 02:38.920
All right.

02:38.920 --> 02:39.920
How did it happen, Skipper?

02:39.920 --> 02:40.920
I haven't got all of the details.

02:40.920 --> 02:41.920
This guy used a shotgun point blank.

02:41.920 --> 02:42.920
Fillmore didn't have a chance.

02:42.920 --> 02:43.920
Chief of detectives, office Egan.

02:43.920 --> 02:44.920
Crime lab here.

02:44.920 --> 02:45.920
Out there now.

02:45.920 --> 02:46.920
Right.

02:46.920 --> 02:47.920
Chief Brown, Egan.

02:47.920 --> 02:48.920
Down the hall with Captain Wayne, intelligence office.

02:48.920 --> 02:49.920
He said to have you wait.

02:49.920 --> 02:50.920
Okay, we'll be inside.

02:50.920 --> 02:51.920
Right.

02:51.920 --> 02:52.920
You want to fill us in, sir?

02:52.920 --> 02:53.920
I'm going to go to the office.

02:53.920 --> 02:54.920
I'll be right back.

02:54.920 --> 02:55.920
I'll be right back.

02:55.920 --> 02:56.920
I'll be right back.

02:56.920 --> 02:57.920
I'll be right back.

02:57.920 --> 02:58.920
I'll be right back.

02:58.920 --> 03:01.920
I'll be right back.

03:01.920 --> 03:02.920
You want to fill us in, Skipper?

03:02.920 --> 03:03.920
I don't know much to tell.

03:03.920 --> 03:05.960
Fillmore was working the day watch out of robbery.

03:05.960 --> 03:09.600
He left work at six o'clock last night, drove home.

03:09.600 --> 03:10.600
Yeah.

03:10.600 --> 03:12.800
He had dinner and then he and his wife went to a show.

03:12.800 --> 03:15.200
He got home about 1130, went to bed.

03:15.200 --> 03:16.200
Yeah.

03:16.200 --> 03:19.080
About 1 30 this morning the front doorbell rang and Fillmore answered it.

03:19.080 --> 03:22.400
His wife said she heard him open the door and there was a gunshot.

03:22.400 --> 03:26.380
She ran to the front door in time to see a guy jump in a car and drive away.

03:26.380 --> 03:29.120
Fillmore was lying on a porch, chest ripped open.

03:29.120 --> 03:31.160
You see the guy used his shotgun?

03:31.160 --> 03:32.160
Yeah.

03:32.160 --> 03:33.720
No other information on the car he used?

03:33.720 --> 03:35.760
Blue sedan that's all the wife could tell us.

03:35.760 --> 03:37.640
She didn't get the license number.

03:37.640 --> 03:39.440
Said it looked like a new model car.

03:39.440 --> 03:40.440
No physical evidence.

03:40.440 --> 03:41.440
I haven't found anything yet.

03:41.440 --> 03:42.440
Here's the ball, Chief.

03:42.440 --> 03:43.440
Elliot, you briefed Friday in Ramel?

03:43.440 --> 03:44.440
Told him much as I know.

03:44.440 --> 03:45.440
Any idea what the guy's motive was?

03:45.440 --> 03:46.440
Revenge.

03:46.440 --> 03:47.440
Any leads?

03:47.440 --> 03:48.440
Just one.

03:48.440 --> 03:49.440
Ben White intelligence came up with it.

03:49.440 --> 03:50.440
Grabbing the name of Jake Carver.

03:50.440 --> 03:51.440
Carver?

03:51.440 --> 03:56.440
Not familiar.

03:56.440 --> 03:58.440
Got out of Folsom three days ago.

03:58.440 --> 03:59.440
Served seven years armed robbery.

03:59.440 --> 04:00.440
Yeah.

04:00.440 --> 04:02.440
Fillmore was the man who got Carver and sent him up.

04:02.440 --> 04:05.440
By the time he was sentenced, Carver swore up and down he'd get Fillmore when he got

04:05.440 --> 04:06.440
out.

04:06.440 --> 04:07.440
Hot-headed punk.

04:07.440 --> 04:08.440
Where do we look for Carver?

04:08.440 --> 04:10.440
Already checked where he's supposed to be staying.

04:10.440 --> 04:11.440
Not there.

04:11.440 --> 04:13.440
A list of guys he used to run with before he went to Folsom.

04:13.440 --> 04:14.440
Thanks.

04:14.440 --> 04:15.440
Nice to see you, Joe.

04:15.440 --> 04:16.440
Where is this?

04:16.440 --> 04:19.440
Ralph Danton, Ernie Travis, Jaime Flores.

04:19.440 --> 04:21.440
Carver been seen around town since he got out?

04:21.440 --> 04:24.440
Once that we know of in a bar out on Sunset Boulevard, Flores was with him.

04:24.440 --> 04:26.440
Well, how about Travis and Danton?

04:26.440 --> 04:27.440
They still around?

04:27.440 --> 04:28.440
Let's see.

04:28.440 --> 04:29.440
Travis went east two years ago.

04:29.440 --> 04:30.440
Danton's around.

04:30.440 --> 04:31.440
Still runs with Flores.

04:31.440 --> 04:32.440
That's where you start.

04:32.440 --> 04:33.440
Flores?

04:33.440 --> 04:34.440
Yeah.

04:34.440 --> 04:35.440
Okay.

04:35.440 --> 04:36.440
Any reason?

04:36.440 --> 04:37.440
Two.

04:37.440 --> 04:38.440
Flores' sister used to go with Carver.

04:38.440 --> 04:39.440
Yeah.

04:39.440 --> 04:40.440
Flores owns a blue sedan.

04:40.440 --> 04:41.440
3.20 a.m.

04:41.440 --> 04:45.440
We checked Jaime Flores' last known address.

04:45.440 --> 04:48.440
The old 76 Hotel down on South Alameda.

04:48.440 --> 04:49.440
Flores had moved.

04:49.440 --> 04:55.440
His forwarding address was his mother's house, 1232 Alabama Street out in Boyle Heights.

04:55.440 --> 04:59.440
His mother told us Jaime was living on County View Avenue in Highland Park.

04:59.440 --> 05:00.440
4.30 a.m.

05:00.440 --> 05:01.440
We located the address.

05:01.440 --> 05:02.440
Hmm.

05:02.440 --> 05:03.440
No garage here.

05:03.440 --> 05:06.440
I wonder where Jaime keeps his car.

05:06.440 --> 05:07.440
Hmm.

05:07.440 --> 05:12.440
Not parked on the street.

05:12.440 --> 05:15.440
Yeah?

05:15.440 --> 05:18.440
What do you want?

05:18.440 --> 05:19.440
Police officers.

05:19.440 --> 05:20.440
Oh.

05:20.440 --> 05:21.440
Like to talk to Jaime Flores?

05:21.440 --> 05:22.440
Jaime?

05:22.440 --> 05:23.440
It's late.

05:23.440 --> 05:24.440
We're in bed.

05:24.440 --> 05:25.440
It's important.

05:25.440 --> 05:28.440
We'd like to talk to him.

05:28.440 --> 05:29.440
All right.

05:29.440 --> 05:30.440
Wait.

05:30.440 --> 05:31.440
I'll go get him up.

05:31.440 --> 05:32.440
Jaime.

05:32.440 --> 05:33.440
Come on.

05:33.440 --> 05:34.440
Get up.

05:34.440 --> 05:35.440
Hmm?

05:35.440 --> 05:36.440
Come on, Jaime.

05:36.440 --> 05:37.440
Cops at the door want to talk to you.

05:37.440 --> 05:38.440
What did they say?

05:38.440 --> 05:39.440
They want to talk to you.

05:39.440 --> 05:40.440
What?

05:40.440 --> 05:45.440
Okay, baby.

05:45.440 --> 05:48.440
Yeah, officers.

05:48.440 --> 05:53.440
What can I do for you?

05:53.440 --> 05:54.440
You Jaime Flores?

05:54.440 --> 05:55.440
That's right.

05:55.440 --> 05:56.440
We're looking for Jake Carver.

05:56.440 --> 05:57.440
You know where he is?

05:57.440 --> 05:58.440
I wish I did.

05:58.440 --> 05:59.440
I'm through with that guy.

05:59.440 --> 06:00.440
Why?

06:00.440 --> 06:01.440
What's the matter?

06:01.440 --> 06:03.440
He brought my car the day before yesterday.

06:03.440 --> 06:05.440
Said he'd only be gone a couple hours.

06:05.440 --> 06:06.440
I'm still waiting.

06:06.440 --> 06:08.440
You own a blue sedan, is that right?

06:08.440 --> 06:09.440
Yeah.

06:09.440 --> 06:10.440
I own a 48 Chevy.

06:10.440 --> 06:11.440
Why?

06:11.440 --> 06:12.440
Did he crack it up?

06:12.440 --> 06:13.440
Couldn't tell you.

06:13.440 --> 06:15.440
Do you have any idea where we can look for Carver?

06:15.440 --> 06:16.440
If I did, I'd be looking myself.

06:16.440 --> 06:18.440
Do you know if Carver's got a gun?

06:18.440 --> 06:19.440
Why?

06:19.440 --> 06:20.440
Had punk pull a job?

06:20.440 --> 06:21.440
Does he have a gun?

06:21.440 --> 06:22.440
No trunk of the car.

06:22.440 --> 06:23.440
I use it on hunting trips.

06:23.440 --> 06:24.440
What kind?

06:24.440 --> 06:25.440
Shotgun.

06:25.440 --> 06:26.440
4.45 a.m.

06:26.440 --> 06:28.440
We got out of broadcast in an APB on Jake Carver, containing a complete description of the car

06:28.440 --> 06:29.440
and its license number.

06:29.440 --> 06:36.500
Road blocks were set up on all main roads leading out to the

06:36.500 --> 06:43.680
city, and police details at the airports, bus depots, and the railroad terminals were

06:43.680 --> 06:44.680
alerted.

06:44.680 --> 06:48.280
All of the people whom Carver was known to have run with before he was sent to Folsom

06:48.280 --> 06:51.640
Penitentiary were rounded up and brought in for questioning.

06:51.640 --> 06:55.760
While Captain Elliott from Homicide supervised the interrogation, Ben went across the street

06:55.760 --> 06:57.800
to check with a coroner at the morgue.

06:57.800 --> 07:00.400
I contacted Lee Jones at the crime lab.

07:00.400 --> 07:01.400
6 a.m.

07:01.400 --> 07:05.720
We met in Chief of Detective Stad Brown's office.

07:05.720 --> 07:06.720
Crime lab.

07:06.720 --> 07:07.720
Find anything?

07:07.720 --> 07:08.720
Single footprint, that's all.

07:08.720 --> 07:11.240
Jones found it in one of the flower beds in front of Fillmore's home.

07:11.240 --> 07:12.240
Does it tie in?

07:12.240 --> 07:13.240
Size 10.

07:13.240 --> 07:14.240
That's Carver's size.

07:14.240 --> 07:15.240
That'll help.

07:15.240 --> 07:17.480
Is there any indication Carver might still be in the city?

07:17.480 --> 07:18.480
No.

07:18.480 --> 07:21.360
There was a good three hours between the time Fillmore was shot and the road blocks went

07:21.360 --> 07:22.360
up.

07:22.360 --> 07:23.360
What about Carver's pals?

07:23.360 --> 07:24.360
Did they help any?

07:24.360 --> 07:27.440
Well, Flores is the only one who ever met the same since he got out.

07:27.440 --> 07:29.240
What about Flores' sister, Dorothy?

07:29.240 --> 07:30.680
She lives out in Long Beach.

07:30.680 --> 07:32.560
And Senas and Burton are bringing her in now.

07:32.560 --> 07:35.080
That guy Flores, did you question him again, Elliott?

07:35.080 --> 07:36.080
Yeah.

07:36.080 --> 07:38.600
Satisfied with everything he told you that he knows?

07:38.600 --> 07:39.600
That's right.

07:39.600 --> 07:40.920
He doesn't seem to be too close to Carver.

07:40.920 --> 07:43.440
No record of any correspondence with him while he was in Folsom.

07:43.440 --> 07:45.000
What about the coroner's report?

07:45.000 --> 07:47.400
Shotgun, close range, hit him hard.

07:47.400 --> 07:48.920
There's mugshots of Carver.

07:48.920 --> 07:49.920
Are they out?

07:49.920 --> 07:50.920
Photocopies still working on it.

07:50.920 --> 07:51.920
Turning out 2,000.

07:51.920 --> 07:52.920
Excuse me.

07:52.920 --> 07:53.920
Brown speaking.

07:53.920 --> 07:54.920
Albert.

07:54.920 --> 07:55.920
Right.

07:55.920 --> 08:01.120
They got Dorothy Flores in the interrogation room.

08:01.120 --> 08:02.120
You want to talk to her, Elliott?

08:02.120 --> 08:04.040
Ben, you and Joe talked to her.

08:04.040 --> 08:05.640
Gill and Senas and Burton are checking in here.

08:05.640 --> 08:07.480
I got another angle I want them to start on.

08:07.480 --> 08:08.480
Right.

08:08.480 --> 08:11.480
Let's go, Joe.

08:11.480 --> 08:16.480
He must be as mad as a hatter.

08:16.480 --> 08:18.560
Three days out of Folsom and he kills a cop.

08:18.560 --> 08:19.560
Yeah, if it was him.

08:19.560 --> 08:21.560
You got any other idea?

08:21.560 --> 08:23.040
We need more than a footprint.

08:23.040 --> 08:25.680
We got to find the gun and we got to prove that he used it.

08:25.680 --> 08:26.680
Hi.

08:26.680 --> 08:28.800
You two going to take over?

08:28.800 --> 08:29.800
Yeah, Lloyd.

08:29.800 --> 08:31.360
You and Gill check in at the chief's office.

08:31.360 --> 08:32.360
The captain wants to see you.

08:32.360 --> 08:33.360
Okay.

08:33.360 --> 08:34.360
You're the next woman to stand by.

08:34.360 --> 08:35.360
It's fine.

08:35.360 --> 08:36.360
Let's go, Gill.

08:36.360 --> 08:37.360
See you guys later.

08:37.360 --> 08:38.360
All right.

08:38.360 --> 08:40.360
You're Dorothy Flores?

08:40.360 --> 08:41.360
Yeah.

08:41.360 --> 08:43.160
You know why you're here?

08:43.160 --> 08:44.160
Jake Carver.

08:44.160 --> 08:45.680
That's what they told me.

08:45.680 --> 08:46.680
That's right.

08:46.680 --> 08:47.680
You know where he is?

08:47.680 --> 08:48.680
No.

08:48.680 --> 08:50.360
Have you seen Carver in the past three days?

08:50.360 --> 08:52.480
Look, I don't want any part of the guy.

08:52.480 --> 08:53.480
He's nothing to me.

08:53.480 --> 08:54.480
He never was.

08:54.480 --> 08:56.840
You used to go around with him, didn't you?

08:56.840 --> 08:57.840
Seven years ago.

08:57.840 --> 08:58.840
Before he went to Folsom.

08:58.840 --> 09:02.240
What happened to your eye, Miss Flores?

09:02.240 --> 09:05.280
Those bruises there on your arm.

09:05.280 --> 09:06.280
We had a party.

09:06.280 --> 09:09.400
I fell and bumped myself.

09:09.400 --> 09:11.360
Looks like a pretty new black eye.

09:11.360 --> 09:12.840
Did you have the party last night?

09:12.840 --> 09:14.480
I told you, Jake's nothing to me.

09:14.480 --> 09:15.640
He's a crazy hothead.

09:15.640 --> 09:17.280
I don't want any part of him.

09:17.280 --> 09:18.440
Was he around to see you last night?

09:18.440 --> 09:19.600
I used to go with him.

09:19.600 --> 09:20.600
That's all.

09:20.600 --> 09:21.600
I don't care what happened to him.

09:21.600 --> 09:22.600
You saw him last night.

09:22.600 --> 09:23.600
I didn't.

09:23.600 --> 09:27.760
This is on a murder rap, Miss Flores.

09:27.760 --> 09:29.040
I didn't want to see him.

09:29.040 --> 09:30.040
He came to my room.

09:30.040 --> 09:31.040
He forced his way in.

09:31.040 --> 09:32.600
I didn't want any part of him.

09:32.600 --> 09:33.600
When was it?

09:33.600 --> 09:34.600
Early this morning.

09:34.600 --> 09:35.600
What time?

09:35.600 --> 09:36.600
About two o'clock.

09:36.600 --> 09:37.600
Maybe ten after.

09:37.600 --> 09:38.600
He wanted money.

09:38.600 --> 09:39.600
He acted like a crazy man.

09:39.600 --> 09:41.280
I told him I didn't have any money.

09:41.280 --> 09:42.280
He slugged me.

09:42.280 --> 09:43.280
That's how I got his mouth.

09:43.280 --> 09:45.080
What do you want the money for?

09:45.080 --> 09:47.600
He said he got the cop who sent him up.

09:47.600 --> 09:49.160
He had to get out of town.

09:49.160 --> 09:50.160
He took my purse.

09:50.160 --> 09:51.160
It's $48 in it.

09:51.160 --> 09:53.200
Was he driving your brother's car?

09:53.200 --> 09:54.200
Yeah.

09:54.200 --> 09:55.880
I didn't want any part of him.

09:55.880 --> 09:56.880
I got nothing in this.

09:56.880 --> 09:58.680
Did he tell you where he was headed?

09:58.680 --> 09:59.680
Mexico.

09:59.680 --> 10:01.280
He's got friends across the border.

10:01.280 --> 10:02.280
Tijuana.

10:02.280 --> 10:03.280
All right.

10:03.280 --> 10:04.280
Stay with her, Ben.

10:04.280 --> 10:07.280
And get us to Nogga for two, will you?

10:07.280 --> 10:08.280
Yeah.

10:08.280 --> 10:09.280
Righty.

10:09.280 --> 10:12.840
The Flores girl, Skipper.

10:12.840 --> 10:15.320
Carvasaur this morning admitted shooting Fillmore.

10:15.320 --> 10:17.040
She says he's headed south for Tijuana.

10:17.040 --> 10:18.200
Maybe he stopped off on the way.

10:18.200 --> 10:19.200
How do you mean?

10:19.200 --> 10:20.480
The drugstore in San Pedro just held up.

10:20.480 --> 10:21.480
Owner was shot and killed.

10:21.480 --> 10:22.480
Yeah?

10:22.480 --> 10:26.440
The guy was driving a blue sedan.

10:26.440 --> 10:29.640
An immediate alert was tele-typed to the coastal town south of Los Angeles.

10:29.640 --> 10:31.600
In the vicinity of San Pedro.

10:31.600 --> 10:35.800
The San Diego police were alerted as were the Mexican authorities in Tijuana and other

10:35.800 --> 10:39.440
designated points of entry along the California-Mexico border.

10:39.440 --> 10:40.440
7.50 a.m.

10:40.440 --> 10:45.280
Ben and I, together with Lloyd Barton and Al Schamber of Homicide, drove down to San

10:45.280 --> 10:49.160
Pedro and checked in with Lieutenant Maxwell at San Pedro Homicide.

10:49.160 --> 10:51.360
What kind of a gun did the guy use, Lieutenant?

10:51.360 --> 10:52.360
I checked the body.

10:52.360 --> 10:53.360
It looks like it could have been a.45.

10:53.360 --> 10:55.360
No chance it might have been a shotgun.

10:55.360 --> 10:57.080
No, not that kind of a wound.

10:57.080 --> 10:58.720
Who saw the guy make his getaway?

10:58.720 --> 10:59.720
My wife did.

10:59.720 --> 11:01.320
We live right across the street from the drugstore.

11:01.320 --> 11:03.360
Wife heard the shooting and ran to the window.

11:03.360 --> 11:04.360
She says it was a blue sedan.

11:04.360 --> 11:05.960
She didn't see the license plate?

11:05.960 --> 11:06.960
No.

11:06.960 --> 11:08.240
I got a look at the car before it disappeared.

11:08.240 --> 11:09.600
It looked like a Chevy to me.

11:09.600 --> 11:11.680
There's been no sign of it since the roadblocks went up?

11:11.680 --> 11:12.680
Not yet.

11:12.680 --> 11:13.680
It's pretty hard to understand.

11:13.680 --> 11:14.680
How do you mean?

11:14.680 --> 11:16.680
Take a look at the map here.

11:16.680 --> 11:19.840
Here's Palace Verde's and Clifton to the west.

11:19.840 --> 11:20.840
Roadblocks there.

11:20.840 --> 11:21.840
Yeah.

11:21.840 --> 11:22.840
Here's the roadblock to the north, just this side of Harbor City.

11:22.840 --> 11:23.840
Another one northeast, near Wilmington.

11:23.840 --> 11:24.840
Yeah.

11:24.840 --> 11:27.840
This one here outside of Long Beach.

11:27.840 --> 11:29.320
Had four roads to pick from.

11:29.320 --> 11:30.320
They're all blocked off, huh?

11:30.320 --> 11:31.320
No turnoffs, no detours.

11:31.320 --> 11:33.320
All the roads are under patrol.

11:33.320 --> 11:36.480
You think he got south beyond Long Beach before the roadblocks went up?

11:36.480 --> 11:37.480
Not a chance.

11:37.480 --> 11:38.480
Yeah.

11:38.480 --> 11:39.480
It's hard to figure.

11:39.480 --> 11:40.480
He could be hiding out somewhere along the way.

11:40.480 --> 11:41.480
Excuse me.

11:41.480 --> 11:42.480
This is Lieutenant Maxwell.

11:42.480 --> 11:43.480
Where?

11:43.480 --> 11:44.480
Okay.

11:44.480 --> 11:45.480
Be right there.

11:45.480 --> 11:46.480
Anything?

11:46.480 --> 11:48.480
I found the car off the coast highway.

11:48.480 --> 11:49.480
Blue Chevy sedan.

11:49.480 --> 11:50.480
How about Carver?

11:50.480 --> 11:51.480
Blood stains in the front seat.

11:51.480 --> 11:52.480
That's all they found.

11:52.480 --> 12:12.440
You are listening to Dragnet for the step-by-step solution to an actual police case.

12:12.440 --> 12:18.160
Here, step-by-step are the reasons why Fatima has more than doubled its smokers from coast

12:18.160 --> 12:19.160
to coast.

12:19.160 --> 12:20.160
Step one.

12:20.160 --> 12:24.680
The name Fatima has always stood for the best in cigarette quality.

12:24.680 --> 12:25.800
Step two.

12:25.800 --> 12:31.360
Long cigarette smokers discover Fatima has a much different, much better flavor and aroma.

12:31.360 --> 12:32.400
Step three.

12:32.400 --> 12:35.960
Long cigarette smokers find Fatima extra mild.

12:35.960 --> 12:42.600
Fatima is the long cigarette which contains the finest Turkish and domestic tobaccos superbly

12:42.600 --> 12:45.640
blended to make Fatima extra mild.

12:45.640 --> 12:53.480
And that's why more and more smokers every day agree it's wise to smoke extra mild Fatima.

12:53.480 --> 12:56.480
It's wise to smoke extra mild Fatima.

12:56.480 --> 12:57.480
Yes.

12:57.480 --> 13:04.560
The name Fatima on that golden yellow package is your insurance of an extra mild smoke.

13:04.560 --> 13:07.840
So enjoy king size Fatima.

13:07.840 --> 13:15.960
The best of all long cigarettes.

13:15.960 --> 13:19.280
8.45 a.m.

13:19.280 --> 13:21.000
We found the blue Chevrolet sedan.

13:21.000 --> 13:25.320
It was lying overturned in a ditch just off a dead end road on the edge of a grove of

13:25.320 --> 13:27.600
eucalyptus trees.

13:27.600 --> 13:29.480
Oil was still dripping from the crankcase.

13:29.480 --> 13:33.840
There were blood stains on the upholstery in the front seat.

13:33.840 --> 13:38.560
In the glove compartment we found two empty shotgun shells, Ben marked them with his initials

13:38.560 --> 13:41.080
for evidence and wrapped them in a handkerchief.

13:41.080 --> 13:43.280
The fingerprint men were called.

13:43.280 --> 13:46.280
We fanned out and started the search of the general area.

13:46.280 --> 13:53.800
See if we can't pick up a trail in this eucalyptus grove here.

13:53.800 --> 13:55.640
Sure has got me beat.

13:55.640 --> 13:56.640
What's that?

13:56.640 --> 13:58.760
Car all smashed up back there, blood all over.

13:58.760 --> 13:59.760
The guy must have been hurt.

13:59.760 --> 14:01.560
How'd he get this far away from the car?

14:01.560 --> 14:03.400
What makes you think he did get far?

14:03.400 --> 14:06.880
Neither that, or he's hiding right under a nose.

14:06.880 --> 14:10.080
No sign of a trail through here?

14:10.080 --> 14:11.080
No, there's nothing.

14:11.080 --> 14:12.520
There's a clearing up ahead.

14:12.520 --> 14:15.200
Come on, let's cut through this brush here.

14:15.200 --> 14:18.400
Ben, come here.

14:18.400 --> 14:19.400
Yeah?

14:19.400 --> 14:22.000
Take a look.

14:22.000 --> 14:23.920
The trunk of this tree.

14:23.920 --> 14:25.520
Brown smears on it.

14:25.520 --> 14:26.520
Blood?

14:26.520 --> 14:27.520
Maybe.

14:27.520 --> 14:31.520
Look, higher up on the trunk there's the same thing.

14:31.520 --> 14:33.320
Wait a minute.

14:33.320 --> 14:34.320
Up in the tree.

14:34.320 --> 14:36.600
Can you see anything up there?

14:36.600 --> 14:39.720
No, the branches are pretty thick.

14:39.720 --> 14:41.080
Trees go pretty high up.

14:41.080 --> 14:44.480
Good 60 feet up there.

14:44.480 --> 14:45.480
Come here, Joe.

14:45.480 --> 14:46.480
Yeah?

14:46.480 --> 14:47.480
Follow my hand.

14:47.480 --> 14:49.480
No, just over at the left where I'm pointing.

14:49.480 --> 14:50.480
Oh, yeah.

14:50.480 --> 14:51.480
Cover, Ben.

14:51.480 --> 14:52.480
You all right, Joe?

14:52.480 --> 14:53.480
Yeah.

14:53.480 --> 14:54.480
Can you see him?

14:54.480 --> 14:55.480
Yeah, up near the top.

14:55.480 --> 14:56.480
Right.

14:56.480 --> 14:57.480
Stay off, Burton.

14:57.480 --> 14:58.480
Don't come in the clearing.

14:58.480 --> 14:59.480
He's up in one of the trees.

14:59.480 --> 15:02.480
Throw that gun down, then come down yourself.

15:02.480 --> 15:03.480
All right, Ben.

15:03.480 --> 15:04.480
Hit him, Joe.

15:04.480 --> 15:05.480
Hold it.

15:05.480 --> 15:06.480
It's Carla.

15:06.480 --> 15:07.480
Shotgun's over there.

15:07.480 --> 15:08.480
You alive?

15:08.480 --> 15:09.480
Yeah.

15:09.480 --> 15:12.480
It's a hard tree to climb.

15:12.480 --> 15:27.480
I wonder how he got up there.

15:27.480 --> 15:28.480
I don't know.

15:28.480 --> 15:34.480
But this was the only way to get him down.

15:34.480 --> 15:38.480
We called an ambulance and had Jake Carver taken back to Los Angeles to the county hospital,

15:38.480 --> 15:39.760
the prison ward.

15:39.760 --> 15:44.040
We took the shotgun and the empty shells and booked them as evidence with the property

15:44.040 --> 15:45.040
clerk.

15:45.040 --> 15:48.120
The wrecked blue sedan was impounded.

15:48.120 --> 15:51.040
Two counts of murder were filed against Carver with the district attorney.

15:51.040 --> 15:55.880
There was still one important piece of evidence missing, the.45 pistol used in the robbery

15:55.880 --> 15:58.680
and murder of the San Pedro drug addicts.

15:58.680 --> 16:01.040
A month passed.

16:01.040 --> 16:04.640
While Carver recuperated in the prison ward of the county hospital, we were busy building

16:04.640 --> 16:07.640
a case for his conviction.

16:07.640 --> 16:11.560
We still had only enough evidence to convict him for one of the murders.

16:11.560 --> 16:13.680
Another two months went by.

16:13.680 --> 16:18.160
On August 30th, Jake Carver was brought to trial for the shotgun murder of police officer

16:18.160 --> 16:20.720
Robert Fillmore.

16:20.720 --> 16:23.760
Ten days later, the jury found him guilty of first degree murder.

16:23.760 --> 16:27.960
He was sentenced to a life term in Folsom Penitentiary.

16:27.960 --> 16:30.720
Knowing that we didn't have enough evidence to convict his client for the murder of the

16:30.720 --> 16:34.880
drug addicts, Carver's lawyer demanded an immediate trial on the second charge.

16:34.880 --> 16:37.000
Wednesday, September 12th, 10 a.m.

16:37.000 --> 16:39.760
I was called to chief of detective's office.

16:39.760 --> 16:42.400
Rodney, sit down.

16:42.400 --> 16:43.400
Thank you.

16:43.400 --> 16:46.520
Elliot and I have been talking about this Jake Carver thing.

16:46.520 --> 16:49.080
Have you set the trial date yet?

16:49.080 --> 16:52.360
Starts next Tuesday, bringing Carver down from Folsom tomorrow.

16:52.360 --> 16:54.240
That's bum luck.

16:54.240 --> 16:56.200
We're not going to convict him on the evidence we've got.

16:56.200 --> 16:57.200
We don't even have the gun.

16:57.200 --> 16:58.560
We've got to get a conviction.

16:58.560 --> 17:00.840
He beat the death rap for killing Fillmore.

17:00.840 --> 17:03.840
If he gets over this one, it means he's still eligible for parole.

17:03.840 --> 17:05.840
So he serves ten years, maybe.

17:05.840 --> 17:06.840
Good behavior.

17:06.840 --> 17:08.840
He gets out and he's ready to start him all over again.

17:08.840 --> 17:12.440
If we could just sew him up for killing that drug addict, we could put him away for good.

17:12.440 --> 17:13.440
I don't know how, Skipper.

17:13.440 --> 17:17.760
It's a pretty good bet that no jury will convict him unless we find that gun.

17:17.760 --> 17:18.760
We've got another, Al.

17:18.760 --> 17:19.760
Just one.

17:19.760 --> 17:20.760
What's that?

17:20.760 --> 17:23.520
We can get Carver to admit he killed that drug addict.

17:23.520 --> 17:24.520
That's a neat trick.

17:24.520 --> 17:28.720
When you and Ben got him last May, did he see you at all?

17:28.720 --> 17:31.240
Did he think he could recognize you again?

17:31.240 --> 17:35.800
Couldn't have gotten a very good look from where he was up in that tree.

17:35.800 --> 17:37.160
Ben did all the testifying at the trial.

17:37.160 --> 17:38.160
I wasn't even there.

17:38.160 --> 17:39.880
No, he wouldn't know me.

17:39.880 --> 17:40.880
Why?

17:40.880 --> 17:44.280
When they bring Carver down from Folsom tomorrow, they'll put him in county jail while he's

17:44.280 --> 17:45.280
waiting trial.

17:45.280 --> 17:46.280
Yeah.

17:46.280 --> 17:48.440
Chief figures that we could plant you in the same cell with him.

17:48.440 --> 17:51.040
There's a chance he might talk if you play it right.

17:51.040 --> 17:52.480
No, I don't know.

17:52.480 --> 17:53.480
He's no beginner.

17:53.480 --> 17:54.480
Neither are you.

17:54.480 --> 17:57.000
You carve enough of the right bait at the right time, there's a chance he'll put his

17:57.000 --> 17:58.000
foot in it.

17:58.000 --> 17:59.000
Maybe.

17:59.000 --> 18:00.000
All right.

18:00.000 --> 18:01.160
Will you set it up with the county jail?

18:01.160 --> 18:02.520
Yeah, and remember, he's a killer.

18:02.520 --> 18:03.520
Don't take any chances.

18:03.520 --> 18:04.520
I suppose he gets wise.

18:04.520 --> 18:05.520
Well, we'll know you tried.

18:05.520 --> 18:15.640
The following day at 2 p.m., I was booked at central jail as Joe Ramis, a robbery suspect.

18:15.640 --> 18:19.600
Ramis was the actual name of an Eastern thief whom we knew was not acquainted with Jake

18:19.600 --> 18:20.880
Carver.

18:20.880 --> 18:24.960
After being mugged and fingerprinted, transportation officers took me to the 12th floor of the

18:24.960 --> 18:28.560
Hall of Justice where I was booked into the county jail.

18:28.560 --> 18:32.400
After that, I was taken down to a cell block on the 10th floor known as the high power

18:32.400 --> 18:36.520
tank where prisoners charged with major crimes are held.

18:36.520 --> 18:40.560
During the day, the individual cells are left open and the prisoners are allowed to visit

18:40.560 --> 18:42.240
with one another.

18:42.240 --> 18:45.880
I was taken back and shown the cell I was assigned to.

18:45.880 --> 18:46.880
Jake Carver was already there.

18:46.880 --> 18:49.960
He was playing two handed poker with another inmate on the lower bunk.

18:49.960 --> 18:53.640
Hey, guy Ramis, this cell here.

18:53.640 --> 18:55.360
Take the top bunk.

18:55.360 --> 18:56.360
All right.

18:56.360 --> 18:57.360
How many cards you want?

18:57.360 --> 18:58.360
Make it two, Jake.

18:58.360 --> 18:59.360
Hey, move, will you?

18:59.360 --> 19:00.360
I want to get in my bunk.

19:00.360 --> 19:01.360
Come on, make your bet.

19:01.360 --> 19:02.360
Says two cigarettes.

19:02.360 --> 19:03.360
You're two, bunk you six.

19:03.360 --> 19:04.360
I said I'd like to get in my bunk.

19:04.360 --> 19:05.360
I'm going to get in my bunk.

19:05.360 --> 19:06.360
I'm going to get in my bunk.

19:06.360 --> 19:07.360
I'm going to get in my bunk.

19:07.360 --> 19:08.360
I'm going to get in my bunk.

19:08.360 --> 19:09.360
I'm going to get in my bunk.

19:09.360 --> 19:10.360
I'm going to get in my bunk.

19:10.360 --> 19:11.360
I'm going to get in my bunk.

19:11.360 --> 19:13.120
I said I'd like to get in my bunk.

19:13.120 --> 19:16.120
Go on, Sam, play your game.

19:16.120 --> 19:18.120
OK, I'll see you.

19:18.120 --> 19:19.800
Maybe you didn't hear me, Sam.

19:19.800 --> 19:21.040
I said I want to get in my bunk.

19:21.040 --> 19:22.040
I heard you, Mac.

19:22.040 --> 19:23.760
I don't like shoving around like this.

19:23.760 --> 19:28.480
All right, now sit down.

19:28.480 --> 19:29.480
What's your complaint?

19:29.480 --> 19:32.320
Didn't they tell you when you came through the door?

19:32.320 --> 19:34.560
They bury you in the hole for beefing in here.

19:34.560 --> 19:37.680
Then as long as I'm in here with you, let's get it straight right now.

19:37.680 --> 19:38.680
Don't bother me.

19:38.680 --> 19:41.600
While you're at it, keep your rum-dum pals out of here, you understand?

19:41.600 --> 19:42.600
I don't think I do.

19:42.600 --> 19:46.040
You'll be around for quite a while, smart guy.

19:46.040 --> 19:47.040
I won't forget this.

19:47.040 --> 19:48.040
Oh, yeah.

19:48.040 --> 19:49.040
Chow time.

19:49.040 --> 19:50.040
Come on, here it is.

19:50.040 --> 19:53.040
What are you doing down there, darlin'?

19:53.040 --> 19:54.040
Nothin'.

19:54.040 --> 19:55.040
I always sit on the floor.

19:55.040 --> 19:57.040
Well, get back to yourself, chow.

19:57.040 --> 19:58.040
Yeah.

19:58.040 --> 19:59.040
See you, Jake.

19:59.040 --> 20:00.040
Yeah.

20:00.040 --> 20:06.360
What's this junk they feed you?

20:06.360 --> 20:07.360
Boiled beef, boiled potatoes.

20:07.360 --> 20:10.200
It's a habit with them here.

20:10.200 --> 20:11.200
Junk?

20:11.200 --> 20:13.600
Can you buy from the outside?

20:13.600 --> 20:14.600
Candy?

20:14.600 --> 20:15.600
Sometimes pie.

20:15.600 --> 20:18.600
A guy comes around in the morning.

20:18.600 --> 20:20.080
Who are you?

20:20.080 --> 20:21.080
Joe Ramis.

20:21.080 --> 20:22.080
Ramis, huh?

20:22.080 --> 20:23.080
Chicago?

20:23.080 --> 20:24.080
I've been there.

20:24.080 --> 20:25.080
So have I.

20:25.080 --> 20:26.080
I'm Jake Carver.

20:26.080 --> 20:27.080
Hiya.

20:27.080 --> 20:28.080
All right.

20:28.080 --> 20:29.080
What are you up for?

20:29.080 --> 20:30.080
Talk to my lawyer.

20:30.080 --> 20:31.080
You got a smart mind.

20:31.080 --> 20:32.080
You got a big one.

20:32.080 --> 20:33.080
You take care of your own lawyer.

20:33.080 --> 20:34.080
I'm not a lawyer.

20:34.080 --> 20:35.080
I'm a lawyer.

20:35.080 --> 20:36.080
I'm a lawyer.

20:36.080 --> 20:37.880
You take care of your own worries, huh?

20:37.880 --> 20:38.880
I'll take care of mine.

20:38.880 --> 20:41.200
I ain't got any worries.

20:41.200 --> 20:42.200
I got it made.

20:42.200 --> 20:45.200
Hey, you want that piece of bread?

20:45.200 --> 20:48.200
I don't want any of it.

20:48.200 --> 20:49.200
Take it.

20:49.200 --> 20:50.200
Tell the truth.

20:50.200 --> 20:52.240
I never had it so good.

20:52.240 --> 20:53.240
No witnesses, no evidence.

20:53.240 --> 20:55.240
You can't touch me.

20:55.240 --> 20:56.240
Sure.

20:56.240 --> 21:00.720
That's why you're in here.

21:00.720 --> 21:02.440
Three days passed.

21:02.440 --> 21:06.040
By playing the part of the tough gunman from Chicago, I succeeded in getting close to the

21:06.040 --> 21:08.080
close to Carver.

21:08.080 --> 21:12.160
Because of the close confinement, I was with him almost constantly, but he still refused

21:12.160 --> 21:13.160
to confide.

21:13.160 --> 21:18.200
In a roundabout way, I pressed him as much as I could for the answer without making him

21:18.200 --> 21:19.200
suspicious.

21:19.200 --> 21:20.200
No results.

21:20.200 --> 21:25.200
8.55 p.m. Sunday, two days before the trial opened.

21:25.200 --> 21:30.680
Sam, Jake Carver, and I were playing blackjack in the aisle just outside our cell.

21:30.680 --> 21:34.600
All right, Sam, hit me.

21:34.600 --> 21:36.600
There you are.

21:36.600 --> 21:38.600
Okay, I'm good.

21:38.600 --> 21:39.600
Ramis?

21:39.600 --> 21:40.600
I'll stay in.

21:40.600 --> 21:41.600
18, pay 19.

21:41.600 --> 21:42.600
That's all for me.

21:42.600 --> 21:43.600
Me too.

21:43.600 --> 21:44.600
I'm gonna hit the sack.

21:44.600 --> 21:49.000
Yeah, just when I start to come back.

21:49.000 --> 21:50.000
Always crying.

21:50.000 --> 21:54.000
Hey, Ramis, seems to me I remember you.

21:54.000 --> 21:56.000
Haven't I seen you around City Hall?

21:56.000 --> 21:57.000
Sure.

21:57.000 --> 21:58.000
I live there.

21:58.000 --> 21:59.000
All right, it's time.

21:59.000 --> 22:00.000
Lock up.

22:00.000 --> 22:05.000
Ramis?

22:05.000 --> 22:08.000
What's he talking about?

22:08.000 --> 22:09.000
I don't know.

22:09.000 --> 22:10.000
I got a headache.

22:10.000 --> 22:11.000
It's killing me.

22:11.000 --> 22:12.000
Yeah?

22:12.000 --> 22:13.000
Let me crack your neck.

22:13.000 --> 22:14.000
It'll help it.

22:14.000 --> 22:15.000
No, it's no good.

22:15.000 --> 22:18.000
You got any of them brown pills?

22:18.000 --> 22:19.000
Come on, I'll crack your neck.

22:19.000 --> 22:20.000
Loosen up those nerves.

22:20.000 --> 22:21.000
Always helps me.

22:21.000 --> 22:22.000
Yeah?

22:22.000 --> 22:23.000
Yeah, here, let me show you.

22:23.000 --> 22:24.000
Come on, turn around.

22:24.000 --> 22:25.000
Take it easy.

22:25.000 --> 22:26.000
Just relax.

22:26.000 --> 22:27.000
Let yourself go.

22:27.000 --> 22:28.000
Yeah.

22:28.000 --> 22:29.000
I'm gonna get my hands around the back of your neck.

22:29.000 --> 22:30.000
Come on, relax.

22:30.000 --> 22:31.000
This one won't hurt you.

22:31.000 --> 22:32.000
All right.

22:32.000 --> 22:35.000
You gotta be careful with this stuff.

22:35.000 --> 22:37.000
You could break a guy's neck, you know?

22:37.000 --> 22:39.000
Take it easy, huh?

22:39.000 --> 22:40.000
What's the matter?

22:40.000 --> 22:41.000
Come on, relax.

22:41.000 --> 22:42.000
All right.

22:42.000 --> 22:43.000
Let me get a better grip on your neck.

22:43.000 --> 22:46.000
Take it easy, huh?

22:46.000 --> 22:49.000
All right, now.

22:49.000 --> 22:50.000
Eh.

22:50.000 --> 22:53.000
Always do it, how's that?

22:53.000 --> 22:54.000
That's not bad.

22:54.000 --> 22:56.000
Feels a little better.

22:56.000 --> 22:59.000
I'll work something.

22:59.000 --> 23:00.000
Sure.

23:00.000 --> 23:01.000
Hey, I noticed you had a visitor today.

23:01.000 --> 23:04.000
One of the boys in the East?

23:04.000 --> 23:06.000
No, a friend of mine out here.

23:06.000 --> 23:07.000
He just got in town.

23:07.000 --> 23:09.000
The coppers are trying to pin a killing on him.

23:09.000 --> 23:11.000
No, who is he?

23:11.000 --> 23:13.000
Max Wesley, a good man.

23:13.000 --> 23:16.000
Tried to say he pulled a job down in San Pedro.

23:16.000 --> 23:17.000
Pedro?

23:17.000 --> 23:19.000
What kind of job?

23:19.000 --> 23:22.000
Stick up drugstore a couple months ago.

23:22.000 --> 23:23.000
Yeah?

23:23.000 --> 23:25.000
That's what they got me on, you know?

23:25.000 --> 23:26.000
Funny.

23:26.000 --> 23:28.000
I think I'll get some shut-eye.

23:28.000 --> 23:31.000
What about this job they're trying to hang on him, you tell you?

23:31.000 --> 23:33.000
I don't remember.

23:33.000 --> 23:37.000
The guy who ran the store was shot up and died.

23:37.000 --> 23:39.000
Max wasn't even in town when it happened.

23:39.000 --> 23:40.000
Happened in May?

23:40.000 --> 23:41.000
Last May?

23:41.000 --> 23:42.000
I don't know.

23:42.000 --> 23:43.000
See you in the morning.

23:43.000 --> 23:44.000
Yeah.

23:44.000 --> 23:50.000
Hard bed.

23:50.000 --> 23:52.000
They didn't have nothing on Max, huh?

23:52.000 --> 23:53.000
They let him go.

23:53.000 --> 23:55.000
Oh, I bet he's out on bail.

23:55.000 --> 23:57.000
I mean, no evidence on him.

23:57.000 --> 23:58.000
No gun, huh?

23:58.000 --> 24:00.000
Yeah, he's got a gun.

24:00.000 --> 24:02.000
I think that's what Max said.

24:02.000 --> 24:04.000
Where'd they find it, they say?

24:04.000 --> 24:06.000
I don't know where they found it.

24:06.000 --> 24:08.000
Go to sleep, will you?

24:08.000 --> 24:12.000
He mentioned anything else about Pedro, like San Pedro Hills?

24:12.000 --> 24:14.000
Yeah.

24:14.000 --> 24:15.000
Maybe that's what they found.

24:15.000 --> 24:17.000
I think Max said that.

24:17.000 --> 24:19.000
Oh.

24:19.000 --> 24:22.000
I couldn't be.

24:22.000 --> 24:26.000
I understand that.

24:26.000 --> 24:30.000
Hey, Ramos, it wasn't the Harbor Drug Store, was it?

24:30.000 --> 24:31.000
What's eating you anyway?

24:31.000 --> 24:32.000
Will you go to sleep?

24:32.000 --> 24:34.000
Look, Ramos, Ramos, I gotta know.

24:34.000 --> 24:36.000
It's important.

24:36.000 --> 24:37.000
What are you talking about?

24:37.000 --> 24:38.000
I gotta get some sleep.

24:38.000 --> 24:40.000
Will you listen a minute?

24:40.000 --> 24:42.000
I ditched a gun down there in the San Pedro Hills.

24:42.000 --> 24:43.000
All right, what are you worrying about?

24:43.000 --> 24:46.000
They don't send you up for hiding guns?

24:46.000 --> 24:47.000
Listen, I'm hot on that job.

24:47.000 --> 24:49.000
They got me on one murder rap, they tagged me on another one.

24:49.000 --> 24:50.000
It's for keeps.

24:50.000 --> 24:51.000
What do you want me to do?

24:51.000 --> 24:52.000
Talk to the governor?

24:52.000 --> 24:55.000
Are you sure this guy Max said that they found a gun?

24:55.000 --> 25:00.000
Now look, Carver, Max said they found a gun in the San Pedro Hills.

25:00.000 --> 25:03.000
Now you get on down in your bunk and let's talk about it in the morning, huh?

25:03.000 --> 25:04.000
Wait, what kind?

25:04.000 --> 25:05.000
Did he say what kind?

25:05.000 --> 25:06.000
I don't know, I don't remember.

25:06.000 --> 25:07.000
Was it a.45?

25:07.000 --> 25:09.000
Something like that, yeah, a.45, I guess that was it.

25:09.000 --> 25:12.000
Now get, listen, got that jailer barking down here.

25:12.000 --> 25:14.000
Quiet down in there.

25:14.000 --> 25:15.000
All right.

25:15.000 --> 25:19.000
Can you go to sleep now?

25:19.000 --> 25:22.000
I can't, it's not the same one.

25:22.000 --> 25:25.000
They couldn't have found it, they haven't talked to me.

25:25.000 --> 25:27.000
Ramos.

25:27.000 --> 25:29.000
When did they find the gun?

25:29.000 --> 25:31.000
Did Max tell you that?

25:31.000 --> 25:33.000
When did they find the gun?

25:33.000 --> 25:34.000
Wait.

25:34.000 --> 25:35.000
I don't know.

25:35.000 --> 25:36.000
He didn't say where?

25:36.000 --> 25:39.000
San Pedro Hills.

25:39.000 --> 25:42.000
Ramos, I gotta know.

25:42.000 --> 25:43.000
Wasn't by a covert, was it?

25:43.000 --> 25:44.000
On the hill road?

25:44.000 --> 25:45.000
I don't know, I'll ask Max.

25:45.000 --> 25:46.000
The next time I see him.

25:46.000 --> 25:48.000
Is that where you ditched yours?

25:48.000 --> 25:51.000
They couldn't have found it, nobody could have.

25:51.000 --> 25:53.000
This covert, see back on the road.

25:53.000 --> 25:57.000
There was a piece of cement broken off the bottom edge of the covert, kind of a hollowed out space inside.

25:57.000 --> 25:59.000
I pushed the dirt all around it.

25:59.000 --> 26:01.000
You gotta ask Max.

26:01.000 --> 26:03.000
Ask him where they found that gun.

26:03.000 --> 26:05.000
Yeah, I'll see him Wednesday, I'll ask him.

26:05.000 --> 26:08.000
You gotta find out, they could put me away for good.

26:08.000 --> 26:10.000
What are you worrying about?

26:10.000 --> 26:13.000
They haven't paired you up yet with the gun they found.

26:13.000 --> 26:15.000
Yeah.

26:15.000 --> 26:17.000
Yeah, that's right.

26:17.000 --> 26:19.000
Maybe they didn't figure it, maybe they forgot.

26:19.000 --> 26:22.000
Maybe.

26:22.000 --> 26:23.000
Yeah.

26:23.000 --> 26:25.000
Cops are dumb.

26:25.000 --> 26:27.000
They forget.

26:27.000 --> 26:29.000
That's what everybody says, isn't it?

26:29.000 --> 26:31.000
Yeah, that's what everybody says.

26:38.000 --> 26:41.000
The story you have just heard was true.

26:41.000 --> 26:45.000
Only the names were changed to protect the innocent.

26:45.000 --> 26:52.000
On September 18th, trial was held in Superior Court, Department 91, City and County of Los Angeles, State of California.

26:52.000 --> 26:54.000
In a moment, the results of that trial.

26:54.000 --> 26:59.000
It's amazing how many long cigarette smokers are changing to Fatima.

26:59.000 --> 27:01.000
Here is the actual report.

27:01.000 --> 27:06.000
From coast to coast, king-sized Fatima has more than doubled its smokers.

27:06.000 --> 27:14.000
Yes, more and more smokers every day are discovering that Fatima is the best of all long cigarettes.

27:14.000 --> 27:20.000
Long cigarette smokers find Fatima has a much different, much better flavor and aroma.

27:20.000 --> 27:33.000
Long cigarette smokers find that Fatima is extra mild because it's the long cigarette which contains the finest Turkish and domestic tobaccos superbly blended to make it extra mild.

27:33.000 --> 27:37.000
So enjoy extra mild Fatima.

27:37.000 --> 27:40.000
Best of all long cigarettes.

27:40.000 --> 27:43.000
It's wise to smoke extra mild Fatima.

27:43.000 --> 27:47.000
It's wise to smoke extra mild Fatima.

27:57.000 --> 28:05.000
The murder gun, a 45 caliber automatic pistol, was recovered from the San Pedro Hills and Jacob John Carver was brought to trial.

28:05.000 --> 28:08.000
He was tried and convicted of murder in the first degree.

28:08.000 --> 28:12.000
The jury again refused to recommend the death penalty.

28:12.000 --> 28:18.000
Carver is now serving a life term in the state penitentiary without possibility of parole.

28:23.000 --> 28:27.000
You have just heard Dragnet, authentic cases from official files.

28:27.000 --> 28:34.000
Technical advice for Dragnet comes from the Office of Chief of Police, W.A. Wharton, Los Angeles Police Department.

28:34.000 --> 28:44.000
Dragnet wishes to thank the editors of Radio Best magazine for their considerate appraisal of this program.

28:44.000 --> 28:51.000
For those of you who may be interested, a novelized version of Dragnet appears in the April issue of Radio Best.

28:51.000 --> 29:04.000
Fatima cigarettes, the best of all long cigarettes, has brought you Dragnet from Los Angeles.

29:04.000 --> 29:21.000
Tomorrow, hear Mr. and Mrs. Ronald Coleman in the halls of Ivy on NBC.
