Don't remember having ever seen this series back in the day. I am really enjoying this. I have loved old film noir private detective movies since I was a little kid.
I guess this is based on John Stompanato and Lana Turner scandal. Even the actor looks a lot like that gangster. The difference was that her daughter was 14 at that moment and she killed Stompanato because the gangster was physically abusing her mother. There was no such thing like an affair.
