Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Also known as Billy the Kid in Law and Order, this PRC sagebrusher stars Buster Crabbe as Billy "The Kid" Carson and Al St. John as Fuzzy Q. Jones. This time, Billy must impersonate a dead army lieutenant, in order to save the decedent's aunt (Sarah Padden) from marrying the villain of the piece (Charles King). It's a good thing that Billy not only looks like the late lieutenant, but sounds like him as well. Our hero does his job so well that he even manages to claim his lookalike's girlfriend (Wanda McKay) as his own. In England, Law and Order was shipped out as Double Alibi.
