Synopsis by Hal Erickson

Leonard Gray (Paul Richards) contacts Sgt. Joe Friday (Jack Webb) to report the murder of his wife Hazel. In a somewhat garbled statement, Gray insists that Hazel was killed while both he and his best friend Earl Anderson (Kenneth Tobey) were drunk--and that he's worried that Anderson will accuse him of the murder. As it turns out, both Gray and Anderson had motive and opportunity...and both have very weak alibis. This episode was adapted from the Dragnet radio broadcast of April 5, 1951.
