Whoever did this sure knew what he was doing. 09:45.440 --> 09:47.840 Removed everything that could possibly tell us who she was. 09:47.840 --> 09:49.280 That puts us in a good position. 09:49.280 --> 09:51.760 Yeah, an unidentified body and an unknown killer. 09:57.760 --> 09:59.440 The report came back from R.N.I. 09:59.440 --> 10:02.160 There was nothing in the records on Array Botley of that description. 10:02.800 --> 10:06.000 Three other teams of men were assigned to assist in the investigation. 10:06.000 --> 10:09.280 We talked with everybody in the neighborhood around the apartment building. 10:09.280 --> 10:11.920 None of the storekeepers had noticed the missing man. 10:11.920 --> 10:14.400 None of them could give us any further information. 10:14.400 --> 10:18.400 An APB was gotten out carrying the name and description that we'd obtained. 10:18.400 --> 10:20.960 An APB was also gotten out on the dead woman. 10:20.960 --> 10:24.880 We checked with missing persons detail for a possible missing report on the victim. 10:24.880 --> 10:26.480 They said they'd let us know. 10:26.480 --> 10:29.120 The newspapers gave us their help and in the following editions, 10:29.120 --> 10:32.800 they carried pictures of the woman and requested that anyone knowing her identity 10:32.800 --> 10:34.800 should contact the police department immediately. 10:35.520 --> 10:36.720 Two days passed. 10:36.720 --> 10:40.640 During this time, several people came in and said that they were sure that they knew the dead woman, 10:40.640 --> 10:42.160 but they were unable to identify her. 10:42.800 --> 10:45.120 Other leads were checked out, but let us know where. 10:45.120 --> 10:47.840 The manager and the maid came in and went through the mug books. 10:47.840 --> 10:48.800 No results. 10:49.200 --> 10:51.680 Monday, April 21st, 927 a.m. 10:52.640 --> 10:53.200 Friday? 10:53.200 --> 10:53.680 Yeah. 10:53.680 --> 10:54.640 Oh, hi, John. 10:54.640 --> 10:55.280 Hi, Frank. 10:55.280 --> 10:55.760 Hi, darling. 10:55.760 --> 10:57.520 You guys getting anywhere in this closet murder? 10:57.520 --> 10:58.560 No, not a thing. 10:58.560 --> 10:59.360 Well, I got a hunch. 10:59.360 --> 11:01.840 Maybe it won't go anywhere, but I thought you guys might want to check it out. 11:01.840 --> 11:02.560 What's that? 11:02.560 --> 11:05.120 We got a missing report from San Francisco a couple of weeks ago. 11:05.120 --> 11:07.600 A man up there said that his wife had come down here to see her sister. 11:07.600 --> 11:08.640 He said she never showed up. 11:08.640 --> 11:09.360 Yeah. 11:09.360 --> 11:11.040 We went out and talked to the sister. 11:11.040 --> 11:12.240 At times, she wasn't too cooperative. 11:12.240 --> 11:15.360 You know, like she knew where her sister was all the time. 11:15.360 --> 11:17.200 I checked this description on the APB. 11:17.200 --> 11:20.320 It seems to me to match the description we got from both the husband and the sister. 11:20.320 --> 11:20.960 Yeah. 11:20.960 --> 11:23.760 Like I said, it's just a hunch, but I thought you might talk to this woman. 11:23.760 --> 11:25.200 Might be able to come up with something. 11:25.200 --> 11:26.160 What's her name? 11:26.160 --> 11:26.960 Let's see. 11:26.960 --> 11:28.880 Allard, Myra Allard. 11:28.880 --> 11:30.160 Lives out in Hollywood Boulevard. 11:30.960 --> 11:31.680 You talk to her. 11:31.680 --> 11:33.360 See if you don't come up with the same thing we did. 11:33.360 --> 11:34.160 Yeah, what's that? 11:34.160 --> 11:36.080 She doesn't care if her sister's dead or alive. 11:36.080 --> 11:38.560 Frank and I drove out to see Mrs. Myra Allard. 11:38.560 --> 11:41.840 She told us that her sister had written and said that she'd be down for a visit. 11:41.840 --> 11:45.680 On the day that she was supposed to arrive, the sister had phoned and told Mrs. Allard 11:45.680 --> 11:49.360 that she wouldn't be out that day, but that she'd met some friends on the train, 11:49.360 --> 11:52.240 that they were all going out on a sightseeing tour of the city. 11:52.240 --> 11:56.240 In talking to her, we got the same impression that she'd given John St. John of missing 11:56.240 --> 11:57.520 person's detail. 11:57.520 --> 12:00.720 We asked her if she'd go with us to see if the dead woman might be her sister. 12:00.720 --> 12:01.680 She said, no. 12:01.680 --> 12:02.640 She said, no. 12:02.640 --> 12:03.520 She said, no. 12:03.520 --> 12:06.400 We asked her if she'd go with us to see if the dead woman might be her sister. 12:06.400 --> 12:09.520 At first, she appeared reluctant, but when we gave her a full description of the body, 12:09.520 --> 12:11.040 she agreed to accompany us. 12:11.040 --> 12:13.520 She looked at the dead woman and burst into tears. 12:13.520 --> 12:15.760 Half an hour later, after she'd recovered from the shock, 12:15.760 --> 12:18.400 we talked to her in the interrogation room at the City Hall. 12:18.400 --> 12:19.040 It's Alice. 12:19.040 --> 12:19.840 There's no doubt about it. 12:19.840 --> 12:20.800 It's just terrible. 12:20.800 --> 12:22.720 My own sister dead. 12:22.720 --> 12:24.000 If you try to take it easy. 12:24.000 --> 12:25.520 Would you like another glass of water, Miss Allard? 12:25.520 --> 12:26.480 No, thank you. 12:26.960 --> 12:28.080 It's not just finding your dead. 12:28.080 --> 12:30.400 I guess I always knew that Alice would end up like this. 12:30.400 --> 12:32.960 I never wanted it this way, but I always knew it in my heart. 12:32.960 --> 12:33.960 How's that man? 12:33.960 --> 12:35.960 To understand that, you'd have to know Alice. 12:35.960 --> 12:37.960 She was a beautiful girl, a wonderful person. 12:37.960 --> 12:41.960 Now you said that you heard from Alice when she got here in L.A., is that right? 12:41.960 --> 12:44.960 That's right. She called right after she got off the train. 12:44.960 --> 12:46.960 What did she say to you then? 12:46.960 --> 12:50.960 Well, as I told you, she said that she'd met some friends on the train and they were going out to see the town. 12:50.960 --> 12:52.960 Did she say who these friends were? 12:52.960 --> 12:55.960 No, just said that they were going to pick up Ray and then go out in the town. 12:55.960 --> 12:56.960 Ray? 12:56.960 --> 12:58.960 Yes, Ray Fletcher. 12:58.960 --> 13:01.960 I tried to call him when Alice didn't show up, but there wasn't any answer at his apartment. 13:01.960 --> 13:02.960 Where does he live, ma'am? 13:02.960 --> 13:05.960 Out in Hollywood. I think it's on the sum of some place. I have the address. 13:05.960 --> 13:07.960 Who is this Fletcher? 13:07.960 --> 13:09.960 Well, that's something I'm not very proud of. 13:09.960 --> 13:11.960 Why is that, ma'am? 13:11.960 --> 13:14.960 He's a friend of my husband. Well, not really a friend in the real sense of the word. 13:14.960 --> 13:16.960 Sort of an acquaintance. 13:16.960 --> 13:20.960 Why do you say that you're not very proud of him, ma'am? I don't understand. 13:20.960 --> 13:22.960 Well, I sort of feel that it's all my fault. 13:22.960 --> 13:24.960 Why still don't you understand, ma'am? 13:24.960 --> 13:25.960 The divorce. 13:25.960 --> 13:28.960 Alice and Tom were on the verge of separating. 13:28.960 --> 13:31.960 Tom said that he'd come at just about the end of the line. 13:31.960 --> 13:34.960 Alice told me that they used to have terrible fights. 13:34.960 --> 13:36.960 Anyway, she was down here one time. 13:36.960 --> 13:39.960 Let me see. I think it was about three months ago. 13:39.960 --> 13:40.960 She was terribly depressed. 13:40.960 --> 13:43.960 Said that she and Tom had been fighting for several weeks. 13:43.960 --> 13:45.960 A couple of times he'd hit her. 13:45.960 --> 13:48.960 I can't understand it. I really can't. I told Alice I didn't believe it. 13:48.960 --> 13:49.960 Yes, ma'am. 13:49.960 --> 13:52.960 She showed me the bruises all across her back and shoulders. 13:52.960 --> 13:56.960 She said that one night they were going over the bills and Tom just seemed to go crazy. 13:56.960 --> 13:59.960 He started to rant and rave about how much they were in debt. 13:59.960 --> 14:02.960 Of course I knew why I told Alice so. 14:02.960 --> 14:07.960 I said that it was her fault for driving him, always asking for something new, something else. 14:07.960 --> 14:11.960 She said that she told Tom that if he couldn't afford to keep it the way she wanted to live, 14:11.960 --> 14:13.960 then she'd just have to find somebody who could. 14:13.960 --> 14:15.960 That's when he hit her. 14:15.960 --> 14:17.960 She left that night to come down here. 14:17.960 --> 14:19.960 I don't know if it was terrible. 14:19.960 --> 14:22.960 I don't agree with her, but I don't think any man has the right to hit a woman. 14:22.960 --> 14:23.960 Yes, ma'am. 14:23.960 --> 14:28.960 Well, she moped around the house for a couple of days, said about how she was never going back to him. 14:28.960 --> 14:32.960 I felt kind of sorry for her, even though I don't agree with her. 14:32.960 --> 14:34.960 After all, she was my sister. 14:34.960 --> 14:35.960 Yes, ma'am, we understand. 14:35.960 --> 14:38.960 Well, that night my husband came home and he brought this Ray Fletcher with him. 14:38.960 --> 14:40.960 Met him down at the office. 14:40.960 --> 14:41.960 How many words did you say, ma'am? 14:41.960 --> 14:44.960 Down at the office. Ray works for the same company. 14:44.960 --> 14:47.960 He's a steward on the ship that travels up the coast from here to Washington. 14:47.960 --> 14:49.960 Anyway, my husband brought him home for dinner. 14:49.960 --> 14:52.960 Ray said that we should all go out to eat, so we did. 14:52.960 --> 14:57.960 We had dinner and a few drinks, and then Ray brought us home, and he and Alice went on. 14:57.960 --> 15:00.960 Alice didn't get into almost 3.30 in the morning. 15:00.960 --> 15:01.960 I see. 15:01.960 --> 15:03.960 That night Ray was here again. 15:03.960 --> 15:08.960 He and Alice went out that night, and for the next four nights in a row, every night out until all hours. 15:08.960 --> 15:10.960 I finally had a talk with her about it. 15:10.960 --> 15:15.960 Told her that I didn't think Tom would like it, and that I wouldn't have her doing things like that while she was under my roof. 15:15.960 --> 15:18.960 That's when she told me that she was going to divorce Tom. 15:18.960 --> 15:21.960 That she and Ray were going to get married. 15:21.960 --> 15:23.960 I told her I thought she was crazy. 15:23.960 --> 15:27.960 She didn't know what she was doing, but there wasn't any talking to her. 15:27.960 --> 15:29.960 She saw Ray every day. 15:29.960 --> 15:32.960 Then she went back up north to get things straightened out. 15:32.960 --> 15:35.960 I see. Well, did she follow through with her divorce plan? 15:35.960 --> 15:37.960 Well, as far as I know, she did. 15:37.960 --> 15:43.960 She wrote me and said that she talked to Tom about it, and that they'd reached an agreement that he'd let her have her freedom. 15:43.960 --> 15:45.960 How did he seem to take all this? 15:45.960 --> 15:49.960 Well, he called me one night and asked if I knew why Alice was leaving him. 15:49.960 --> 15:54.960 He didn't know about Ray. I told him all about it before. I thought that maybe Alice hadn't said anything about it. 15:54.960 --> 15:56.960 What was his reaction to it? 15:56.960 --> 16:00.960 I almost went crazy on the phone. Tom's a real jealous man. 16:00.960 --> 16:03.960 If he could have gotten through the phone wires, I think he'd have taken my head off. 16:03.960 --> 16:06.960 He screamed that I'd influenced his wife, that it was all my fault. 16:06.960 --> 16:11.960 Why didn't you tell the officers from missing persons all of this when they were out there, ma'am? 16:11.960 --> 16:13.960 I didn't want my husband to know about it. 16:13.960 --> 16:17.960 Then, too, I thought that it might be better if Tom didn't know where Alice was. 16:17.960 --> 16:20.960 After what he said, I thought it would be better if he never saw her again. 16:20.960 --> 16:21.960 What's that, ma'am? 16:21.960 --> 16:25.960 That night, we had the argument on the phone. He said that she'd never leave him. 16:25.960 --> 16:27.960 That he'd see her dead first. 16:27.960 --> 16:36.960 The description of Ray Fletcher Mrs. Allard had given us tallied closely with that of Raymond Bartley. 16:36.960 --> 16:42.960 She also gave us his address and phone number. It was an apartment house in the southwest section of the city. 16:42.960 --> 16:46.960 Frank and I drove over but found that he'd moved and left no forwarding address. 16:46.960 --> 16:49.960 We checked the apartment but it had since been cleaned and occupied. 16:49.960 --> 16:51.960 Again, we ran into the same problem. 16:51.960 --> 16:54.960 No one could give us any information as to his whereabouts. 16:54.960 --> 16:58.960 We went back to the city hall and ran the name Ray Fletcher through our N.I. 16:58.960 --> 17:01.960 There was no record on anyone answering his description. 17:01.960 --> 17:03.960 We contacted the shipping line where he was employed, 17:03.960 --> 17:07.960 and they told us that they'd pull his employment record out of the files and call us back. 17:07.960 --> 17:11.960 We contacted the San Francisco Police Department, gave them the full details of the case, 17:11.960 --> 17:16.960 and had them check on the movements of the victim's husband, Tom Hudson, as a possible suspect. 17:16.960 --> 17:20.960 4.52 p.m. Frank and I checked back into the city hall. 17:21.960 --> 17:23.960 Hudson sure got a motive. 17:23.960 --> 17:26.960 Yeah, we'll know more when we hear from the San Francisco Department. 17:26.960 --> 17:28.960 Here we go. 17:28.960 --> 17:29.960 I'll check the book. 17:29.960 --> 17:31.960 Right. 17:33.960 --> 17:34.960 Anything? 17:34.960 --> 17:38.960 Yeah, there's a message from the shipping company Fletcher works for. Wants us to give him a call. 17:38.960 --> 17:40.960 What's the number? You got it there? 17:40.960 --> 17:42.960 Hollywood 26709. 17:42.960 --> 17:44.960 Okay, I'll call it. 17:45.960 --> 17:51.960 Hollywood 26709. 17:51.960 --> 17:52.960 09? 17:52.960 --> 17:53.960 Yeah, ask for Mr. August. 17:53.960 --> 17:55.960 August. 17:57.960 --> 17:59.960 Mr. August, please. 17:59.960 --> 18:01.960 My name's Friday, Los Angeles Police Department. 18:01.960 --> 18:04.960 Police Department, yes, ma'am. Yes, he asked me to call. 18:06.960 --> 18:09.960 Mr. August, this is Sergeant Friday. You asked me to call you? 18:09.960 --> 18:11.960 Yes, sir, that's right. Raymond Fletcher. 18:13.960 --> 18:14.960 When was it? 18:14.960 --> 18:15.960 Yes, sir. 18:15.960 --> 18:19.960 Well, thank you very much, sir. If you think of anything else, we'd appreciate a call. 18:19.960 --> 18:21.960 Yes, sir. Michigan 5211. 18:21.960 --> 18:23.960 Right. Homicide, huh? 18:23.960 --> 18:25.960 Right. Thank you, sir. Bye. 18:25.960 --> 18:27.960 Well, we're doing real well. 18:27.960 --> 18:28.960 What do you mean? 18:28.960 --> 18:40.960 Fletcher sailed for Canada this morning. 18:40.960 --> 18:45.960 You are listening to Dragnet, the authentic story of your police force in action. 18:45.960 --> 18:49.960 These are the reasons thousands are changing to Chesterfield. 18:49.960 --> 18:51.960 And why you should change to Chesterfield. 18:51.960 --> 18:58.960 Only Chesterfield gives you premium quality in both regular and king size. 18:58.960 --> 19:01.960 Only Chesterfield names all its ingredients. 19:01.960 --> 19:06.960 And only Chesterfield gives you scientific facts in support of smoking. 19:06.960 --> 19:09.960 First such report ever published about any cigarette. 19:09.960 --> 19:17.960 A responsible consulting organization reports a study by a competent medical specialist and staff on the effects of smoking Chesterfield. 19:17.960 --> 19:24.960 For six months, a group of men and women smoked only Chesterfield, 10 to 40 a day, their normal amount. 19:24.960 --> 19:30.960 Forty-five percent of the group of smoked Chesterfields from one to 30 years for an average of 10 years each. 19:30.960 --> 19:40.960 At the beginning and end of the six months, each smoker was given a thorough examination, including x-rays and covering the sinuses, nose, ears, and throat. 19:40.960 --> 19:43.960 After the examinations, the medical specialist stated, 19:43.960 --> 19:56.960 It is my opinion that the ears, nose, throat, and accessory organs of all participating subjects examined by me were not adversely affected in the six months period by smoking the cigarettes provided. 19:56.960 --> 19:59.960 Of course, these cigarettes were Chesterfields. 19:59.960 --> 20:03.960 Remember this report and buy Chesterfields either way you like them. 20:03.960 --> 20:05.960 Regular or king size. 20:05.960 --> 20:07.960 Premium quality Chesterfield. 20:07.960 --> 20:09.960 And much milder. 20:09.960 --> 20:22.960 We contacted the San Pedro office of the shipping company and made sure that Fletcher was on board the ship when it had sailed. 20:22.960 --> 20:28.960 The management of the shipping line told us that it would take about 24 hours before the tanker would make its first stop at San Francisco. 20:28.960 --> 20:32.960 We got in touch with the San Francisco Police Department and talked to Inspector Charles Sutton. 20:32.960 --> 20:37.960 He told us that they'd place a stakeout where the ship was due to dock and that they would await our arrival. 20:37.960 --> 20:46.960 At the same time Sutton told us that they had conducted an investigation of the dead woman's husband Tom Hudson and that as far as they could find out, he didn't have the opportunity to kill his wife. 20:46.960 --> 20:52.960 They said that the records at the steel mill where he worked showed that he'd been on the job every day for the past month and a half. 20:52.960 --> 20:58.960 Questioning of his neighbors showed that he'd spent his time off working around the house and was seen each evening. 20:58.960 --> 21:06.960 Inspector Sutton stated that when Tom Hudson was told of his wife's death, he broke down and said that although there had been some talk of divorce, none of it had really been serious. 21:06.960 --> 21:11.960 And that this trip that his wife had taken to Los Angeles was to straighten things out with Fletcher. 21:11.960 --> 21:15.960 Hudson flew down to Los Angeles and gave a positive identification of the body. 21:15.960 --> 21:19.960 We got in touch with the captain of the ship that Fletcher was on and filled him in on what had happened. 21:19.960 --> 21:25.960 He told us that he'd place the man under arrest and hold him in the ship's brig for us when they docked at San Francisco. 21:25.960 --> 21:29.960 Tuesday morning, 7.30 a.m., Frank and I checked out and flew up to San Francisco. 21:29.960 --> 21:32.960 We met with Inspector Sutton and Inspector Jules Zimmerman. 21:32.960 --> 21:36.960 They told us that the ship was expected to dock the following morning at 10.36 a.m. 21:36.960 --> 21:38.960 We were waiting when the gangplank was lowered. 21:48.960 --> 21:49.960 You're the officer? 21:49.960 --> 21:52.960 Yes, sir. I'm Inspector Sutton, San Francisco Police Department. 21:52.960 --> 21:56.960 Here are my credentials. These are detectives Joe Friday and Frank Smith. They're from Los Angeles. 21:56.960 --> 21:58.960 Oh, yeah. You're the ones I talked to. I'm Captain Jackson. 21:58.960 --> 22:00.960 How are you doing, Captain? 22:00.960 --> 22:03.960 Down the brig. He's been there since I got your message. 22:03.960 --> 22:04.960 I wonder if we could see him. 22:04.960 --> 22:06.960 Yeah, sure. We can go down this way. 22:06.960 --> 22:07.960 All right, bye. 22:09.960 --> 22:10.960 You sure Fletcher's the man you want? 22:10.960 --> 22:12.960 Well, we're not sure, sir. He looks that way. 22:12.960 --> 22:13.960 Hard to believe. 22:13.960 --> 22:14.960 Why is that, sir? 22:14.960 --> 22:17.960 Well, Fletcher's been with us for several years. Good man, hard worker. 22:17.960 --> 22:20.960 I know he's been studying for his papers. He wanted to be an engineer. 22:20.960 --> 22:23.960 I used to go by his room late at night on my way to the bridge. 22:23.960 --> 22:26.960 He'd be there reading and working on the papers. 22:26.960 --> 22:29.960 Sure is hard to believe. Here we go through here. 22:29.960 --> 22:30.960 Okay. 22:30.960 --> 22:32.960 Yes, sir. Of course, I knew something had to be wrong. 22:32.960 --> 22:33.960 Sir? 22:33.960 --> 22:35.960 Well, once in a while he used to get together with Fletcher on shore. 22:35.960 --> 22:39.960 We'd talk about what he was studying. I'd try to help him with his seamanship. 22:39.960 --> 22:42.960 This trip I called him. I'd met an engineer that I thought Fletcher would like to talk to. 22:42.960 --> 22:45.960 I'd known the guy for years just back from the Orient. 22:45.960 --> 22:49.960 Anyway, I called Fletcher. They told me he'd moved out, hadn't left any forwarding address. 22:49.960 --> 22:50.960 Uh-huh. 22:50.960 --> 22:52.960 I didn't hear from him at all. Then he called me. 22:52.960 --> 22:55.960 He wanted to know if he could stay at my place for a few days. 22:55.960 --> 22:57.960 Said he had some trouble at the new place he was living. 22:57.960 --> 22:59.960 The landlady was giving him a bad time. 22:59.960 --> 23:01.960 Uh-huh. Did you say where he'd been staying? 23:01.960 --> 23:04.960 Yeah, the, uh, broadleaf, something like that. 23:04.960 --> 23:06.960 Could it be the greenleaf, sir? 23:06.960 --> 23:07.960 Yeah, that's a greenleaf. 23:07.960 --> 23:10.960 Said the landlady was a real prune, called her a miserable woman. 23:10.960 --> 23:14.960 Oh, Fletcher looked as if he'd been tying one on for about a week when he checked into my place. 23:14.960 --> 23:15.960 His clothes are a mess. 23:15.960 --> 23:16.960 Come on, it's down here. 23:16.960 --> 23:18.960 Okay, fine. 23:18.960 --> 23:21.960 When I told Fletcher about this, he was real arrogant. 23:21.960 --> 23:25.960 Said he didn't want to talk to anyone. Never seen him run like this before. 23:25.960 --> 23:28.960 Yeah. 23:28.960 --> 23:32.960 All right, Fletcher, police officers are here. Come on out. 23:32.960 --> 23:34.960 Come on, Fletcher, let's go. 23:34.960 --> 23:36.960 Now I'll go in. 23:41.960 --> 23:42.960 How about it, Joe? 23:42.960 --> 23:44.960 Room's empty. 23:44.960 --> 23:54.960 A blockade of the dock area was set up immediately in the event Fletcher had escaped from the ship. 23:54.960 --> 23:57.960 All officers in the area began a search. A search of the ship was started. 23:57.960 --> 24:01.960 A check of Fletcher's cabin turned up several letters from Alice Hudson. 24:01.960 --> 24:04.960 In the letters, she told Fletcher that she was going back to her husband. 24:04.960 --> 24:07.960 We talked to the members of the crew who had been in the vicinity of the brig. 24:07.960 --> 24:12.960 From one of them, we found that Fletcher had been in custody as the ship entered the harbor. 24:12.960 --> 24:17.960 On the floor of the brig, we found a small strip of metal that Fletcher had used to pick the lock of the door. 24:17.960 --> 24:20.960 The search of the ship went on, 1147 a.m. 24:20.960 --> 24:23.960 One of the seamen found Fletcher's coat on the forward part of the deck. 24:23.960 --> 24:25.960 It had been wedged in behind a lifeboat shot. 24:25.960 --> 24:28.960 The search of the dock netted us nothing. 24:28.960 --> 24:33.960 All we could assume was that Fletcher had escaped from the brig, jumped overboard, and then tried to swim to shore. 24:33.960 --> 24:38.960 Inspector Sutton got in touch with Captain Cornelius Murphy, skipper of police boat D.A. White. 24:38.960 --> 24:42.960 Captain Murphy and his crew began a search of the bay from the dock area to Lands End. 24:42.960 --> 24:46.960 All police officers in the bay area were notified of the escape. 24:46.960 --> 24:49.960 Captain Jackson furnished us with a good snapshot of Fletcher. 24:49.960 --> 24:53.960 Seven hours passed. The search continued. Apparently, Fletcher had made good his escape. 24:53.960 --> 25:02.960 Wednesday morning, April 23rd, we got a report from an officer in the search party that the body of a man answering Fletcher's description had been found out near Seal Rocks near the Golden Gate. 25:02.960 --> 25:05.960 Sutton, Zimmerman, Frank, and I drove out to Lands End. 25:05.960 --> 25:08.960 We got out of the car and walked the rest of the way. 25:08.960 --> 25:09.960 Watch your step, Frank. 25:09.960 --> 25:14.960 Yeah. Every time one of those waves breaks, it makes this ledge like glass. 25:14.960 --> 25:15.960 Sutton? 25:14.960 --> 25:15.960 Yeah, Joe? 25:15.960 --> 25:16.960 You see anything yet? 25:16.960 --> 25:17.960 No. 25:17.960 --> 25:22.960 Wait a minute. I'll see if I can yell to Zimmerman. He can see it from there. Maybe he can tell us if we're getting close. 25:22.960 --> 25:23.960 Yeah. 25:23.960 --> 25:25.960 Zimmerman! How we doing? 25:26.960 --> 25:27.960 You hear what he's saying? 25:27.960 --> 25:29.960 Nah, wind's carrying his voice away. 25:29.960 --> 25:32.960 He's waving his arms, pointing down below us. 25:32.960 --> 25:33.960 Now, wait a minute. 25:34.960 --> 25:36.960 Watch it, Joe. It's a long way down. 25:36.960 --> 25:38.960 Yeah, you don't have to tell me. 25:39.960 --> 25:40.960 See anything? 25:40.960 --> 25:42.960 A whittle after this next wave breaks. 25:42.960 --> 25:46.960 Yeah, there he is. You see? Wedged in down here. 25:46.960 --> 25:51.960 Yeah. Looks like him. Hard to be sure with all this water, though. 25:51.960 --> 25:53.960 Yeah, I'll go down a little further. 25:54.960 --> 25:55.960 Take it easy, Joe. 25:55.960 --> 25:57.960 Yeah. Take a minute. 25:59.960 --> 26:00.960 Watch him. 26:00.960 --> 26:01.960 I'm all right. 26:03.960 --> 26:04.960 How about it? 26:04.960 --> 26:05.960 Yeah, it's Fletcher. 26:05.960 --> 26:07.960 I'd better get the crew up here and pull him out. 26:07.960 --> 26:08.960 Yeah, Joe. 26:08.960 --> 26:09.960 I'll go with you. 26:09.960 --> 26:12.960 Must have been carried this far by the current, huh? 26:12.960 --> 26:15.960 Yeah, that's right, Joe. They get mean this time of the year. 26:15.960 --> 26:17.960 Well, that does it. 26:17.960 --> 26:18.960 Yeah, looks that way. 26:19.960 --> 26:20.960 What's the matter, Joe? 26:20.960 --> 26:21.960 I was just thinking. 26:21.960 --> 26:22.960 Yeah? 26:22.960 --> 26:24.960 A rough way to die, isn't it? 26:24.960 --> 26:27.960 Sure is. You'd think he'd have known, wouldn't you, Joe? 26:27.960 --> 26:31.960 About those currents out there, from Alcatraz to Angel Island. 26:31.960 --> 26:33.960 Some of the meanest currents in the world out there. 26:33.960 --> 26:34.960 Yeah, I know. 26:34.960 --> 26:36.960 But I'm not sure if he's going to die. 26:36.960 --> 26:39.960 You'd think a guy like Fletcher would have known better. 26:39.960 --> 26:42.960 Working on a ship, he should have known about that water. 26:42.960 --> 26:44.960 Well, maybe he did. 26:52.960 --> 26:54.960 The story you have just heard was true. 26:54.960 --> 26:57.960 The names were changed to protect the innocent. 26:57.960 --> 27:01.960 On April 23rd, an examination was held in the office of the coroner 27:01.960 --> 27:03.960 of the city and county of San Francisco. 27:03.960 --> 27:06.960 In a moment, the results of that examination. 27:06.960 --> 27:08.960 Now, here is our star, Jack Webb. 27:08.960 --> 27:10.960 Thank you, George Feneman. 27:10.960 --> 27:12.960 Friends, I just want to leave you with one thought tonight. 27:12.960 --> 27:16.960 Chesterfield is the first cigarette to give you scientific facts in support of smoking. 27:16.960 --> 27:20.960 Remember the study made by a competent medical specialist and staff. 27:20.960 --> 27:23.960 They examined a group of people who smoked only Chesterfields. 27:23.960 --> 27:26.960 After the examinations, the medical specialist stated, quote, 27:26.960 --> 27:30.960 It is my opinion that the ears, nose, throat, and accessory organs 27:30.960 --> 27:34.960 of all participating subjects examined by me were not adversely affected 27:34.960 --> 27:38.960 in the six months period by smoking the cigarettes provided, end of quote. 27:38.960 --> 27:41.960 Of course, these cigarettes were Chesterfield. 27:41.960 --> 27:44.960 Remember these facts and buy Chesterfields either way you like them, 27:44.960 --> 27:49.960 regular or king size, premium quality Chesterfields, and much milder. 27:49.960 --> 28:01.960 The Identification of Captain James R.
