This is the same episode as Body in the Nursery, an early episode when the series first started, episode 14. Some different actors and a few other details…I.e, in that episode the man was awaiting execution.
@Fred Jamison Good enough guess, but the script didn't indicate that was the reason. Friday had no answer and it seems like he'd have made and mentioned that reason.
They caught him though, otherwise he’d have quite possibly gotten away with it. But I do understand how corrupt cops would and must have used this acceptable protocol to frame innocent people.
@@rmedley22I know, that was so common in these shows. Just let yourself in and search. They also would stop suspects and demand they empty their pockets, and as in this episode demand they “go downtown” without being under arrest. Today half of the evidence they uncovered would be tossed out of court.
