synopsis
Friday (Jack Webb) and Smith (Ben Alexander) receive a tip that middle-aged dope addict Denson (Rodney Bell) has recently purchased some 30 caps of heroin, which he plans to sell. Not only has "trailer trash" Denson ruined his life and his family with his drug habit, but he is also allowing his nineteen-year-old daughter Josie (a young Ruta Lee) to date a slimy dope pusher (Dennis Cross) in order to secure an endless supply of "H". This episode is based on the Dragnet radio broadcast of September 15, 1955.
