This is the lineup. We're 18 00:02:21.560 --> 00:02:23.759 gonna take this ro all right here? Will this take long? You can 19 00:02:24.039 --> 00:02:27.560 not too long, missus. Welland I had to do my shopping for the 20 00:02:27.560 --> 00:02:30.319 weekend. It won't take long. Did you catch them in? And we 21 00:02:30.360 --> 00:02:32.159 don't know. We picked up everybody in the area that has a record or 22 00:02:32.199 --> 00:02:37.479 look suspicious. I hope you have got him and it would be a need 23 00:02:37.560 --> 00:02:39.000 to have a man like that running around room here. People out there on 24 00:02:39.039 --> 00:02:42.319 the other side of the wire of the audience room, may I have your 25 00:02:42.319 --> 00:02:46.879 attention? Please thank you. My name is Greb, Sergeant Matt Greb. 26 00:02:46.919 --> 00:02:50.719 I'll explain the light up to you. Each of the suspects you will see 27 00:02:50.719 --> 00:02:53.800 will be number. I'll call off a number, their name and charge. 28 00:02:53.639 --> 00:02:59.240 If you have any questions or identifications, please remember the number assigns of the 29 00:02:59.280 --> 00:03:02.120 prisoner was like, call his name at the end of each shrine. When 30 00:03:02.120 --> 00:03:07.120 I asked for questions or identifications, call up the number. If you're sure 31 00:03:07.199 --> 00:03:14.280 or not too sure of the suspects have him out. The officers will have 32 00:03:14.319 --> 00:03:17.800 a dozen or so. Please be funck with your questions or identifications. When 33 00:03:17.840 --> 00:03:21.960 the prisoners leave here, they assess in the bathroom and dressed back into their 34 00:03:22.000 --> 00:03:25.120 jail clothes. It makes it quite difficult to bring them back after they leave 35 00:03:25.159 --> 00:03:30.439 here. The questions I asked these suspects, I'm merely to get a natural 36 00:03:30.479 --> 00:03:32.599 tone of voice, So do not pay too much attention to their answers, 37 00:03:32.599 --> 00:03:38.319 as they often lie. Bring on the line, all right, all right, 38 00:03:38.439 --> 00:03:42.240 move up to the end of the stage, Right on up to the 39 00:03:42.360 --> 00:03:46.599 end.

You wouldn't be number five, 84 00:06:26.839 --> 00:06:30.399 every mind? Look what a lot? How about the rest of him? 85 00:06:30.639 --> 00:06:35.639 You will with him these words you were leaving girl, sergeant grab Yeah, 86 00:06:38.160 --> 00:07:00.360 no identifications, run on the next bunch. Oh I'm beat. Yeah, 87 00:07:00.800 --> 00:07:03.720 well I didn't expect an identification on any of those boys. A man we're 88 00:07:03.839 --> 00:07:08.639 looking for was probably doesn't even have a record. We better get him in 89 00:07:08.680 --> 00:07:11.639 a hurry. The whole town's yelling for an arrest is a mental case, 90 00:07:12.079 --> 00:07:16.639 no doubt about them. No motive in this killing. Shoots anybody and discriminately. 91 00:07:18.199 --> 00:07:23.560 Seven people just walked down the block and shoot him. Have you looked 92 00:07:23.560 --> 00:07:28.560 at j ballistics report? Yeah, ties in with what the witnesses said said. 93 00:07:28.600 --> 00:07:31.120 It was a big gun, logo automatic pistol. Yeah, a machine 94 00:07:31.120 --> 00:07:35.319 pistol. Oh what do we do? I think he's still in that area? 95 00:07:36.040 --> 00:07:40.040 Look at figures that he lived somewhere around there. Why does it figure? 96 00:07:40.079 --> 00:07:42.680 Well, that gun he had was a pretty big gun. Couldn't possibly 97 00:07:42.720 --> 00:07:45.879 carry it in his pocket? He's not going to walk very far with him 98 00:07:45.879 --> 00:07:48.560 before using it. I think he walked out of his house or wherever he 99 00:07:48.639 --> 00:07:54.879 was staying. He started down this block first personally saw he killed him. 100 00:07:55.040 --> 00:07:58.319 If he drove a car, no, no, no, that's so good. 101 00:07:58.319 --> 00:08:01.439 If he had a motive, sure he had a reason for killing those 102 00:08:01.519 --> 00:08:05.480 particular people to be planned it, But no, this was just insane, 103 00:08:05.639 --> 00:08:11.040 wild massacre. Was anybody saw anybody on the street, Yeah, yeah, 104 00:08:11.040 --> 00:08:13.240 I guess we'll look at the first person he shot. A five year old 105 00:08:13.240 --> 00:08:18.199 boy playing on his roller skate, walked up to him and killed him. 106 00:08:18.240 --> 00:08:20.959 Ten people he shot like that, seven of them dead, maybe an eight. 107 00:08:22.879 --> 00:08:28.199 Now I'm convinced he probably sat around in his room this thing eating at 108 00:08:28.279 --> 00:08:31.199 him, made up his mind, walked out and started down the block and 109 00:08:31.240 --> 00:08:33.480 went crazy. Well, if you're right, you've narrowed it down to a 110 00:08:33.480 --> 00:08:37.799 pretty small area, and somebody in that area must know him and be able 111 00:08:37.799 --> 00:08:39.360 to recognize him and tell you who he is. And we've got a fairly 112 00:08:39.399 --> 00:08:43.440 good description from the witnesses. Nobody recognized him, but they all gave a 113 00:08:43.480 --> 00:08:48.399 fairly accurate description. Let's give it to the police artist. Let him draw 114 00:08:48.440 --> 00:08:50.840 up a picture where the witnesses. Now, I've got all five of them 115 00:08:50.879 --> 00:08:54.240 down looking at the mug file. Missus Wheeler keeps selling she's got to do 116 00:08:54.279 --> 00:08:58.039 her weekend shopping. She mentioned it to me several hundred times. She's probably 117 00:08:58.039 --> 00:09:18.559 got a grouch. Your husband, h go get him? Man? How 118 00:09:18.559 --> 00:09:22.639 if you all just sit on please, this is mister Collins. He's going 119 00:09:22.679 --> 00:09:26.759 to listen to your descriptions of the killer and try to reconstruct his likeness. 120 00:09:26.759 --> 00:09:31.480 Mister Case, Yes, did it as nearly as you can. Will you 121 00:09:31.559 --> 00:09:35.480 again tell us what this man looked like. I certainly he was. Just 122 00:09:35.639 --> 00:09:39.279 a minute please, Now the rest of you have anything to add, speak 123 00:09:39.360 --> 00:09:43.200 up if you disagrease Hey, so immediately, all right, mister case Well 124 00:09:43.879 --> 00:09:50.600 he was about as tall as the sergeant. Yeah about You're about six feet, 125 00:09:50.600 --> 00:09:54.039 aren't. Your man was in the quarter of an inch. He was 126 00:09:54.159 --> 00:09:58.360 thin. He was wearing a white shirt. Just a minute, you said 127 00:09:58.360 --> 00:10:01.919 he was thin? How thin? What would you say? Wayne? Oh? 128 00:10:01.960 --> 00:10:05.799 I guess about one hundred and sixty. Oh sinner than that. My 129 00:10:05.879 --> 00:10:09.240 husband weighed one hundred and sixty. He was thinner than that. Well he 130 00:10:09.279 --> 00:10:13.399 could have been. I'm not a very good judge, more like one hundred 131 00:10:13.440 --> 00:10:18.919 and fifty. You all agree he was wearing a white shirt, mister case, 132 00:10:20.240 --> 00:10:24.559 Yes, white shirt and dark pants. I don't know what color pants 133 00:10:26.360 --> 00:10:28.919 he was wearing. Just wearing a shirt and no coat. And that's right. 134 00:10:30.200 --> 00:10:33.320 And in this weather too, and that makes it look more like he 135 00:10:33.320 --> 00:10:37.799 didn't walk too far. Shirt and brown pants, that's right. Anything else 136 00:10:39.360 --> 00:10:43.039 I can't think of anything? No, I can't. The rest of you 137 00:10:43.759 --> 00:10:46.600 all right, now, this is really important. How many of you got 138 00:10:46.679 --> 00:10:48.519 a really good look at his face? Good enough so you could give an 139 00:10:48.559 --> 00:10:54.799 artist a description fairly close? Raise your hands please, everybody, but Missus 140 00:10:54.799 --> 00:10:58.440 Wheeler. I only saw how he was dressful. It's all right, Missus 141 00:10:58.480 --> 00:11:03.919 Wheeler. We'll start with a complex Lieutenant. Yes, as long as I 142 00:11:03.960 --> 00:11:07.080 can't help, all right, Missus Wheeler, you can go get your shopping 143 00:11:07.120 --> 00:11:11.360 down. I can't do much good.

Would you say the man had a 146 00:11:18.720 --> 00:11:22.679 dark, medium or light complexion in this case? Well, I'd say it 147 00:11:22.720 --> 00:11:28.200 was definitely dark. Okay, dark hair, that's right, it's cut very 148 00:11:28.200 --> 00:11:31.360 short. She couldn't miss it. Would you say he had a long head 149 00:11:31.440 --> 00:11:35.080 or a short round head? We had a very thin face. The head 150 00:11:35.200 --> 00:11:41.519 was long, very heavy eyebrows, dark eyes. Well wait a minute, 151 00:11:41.559 --> 00:11:45.799 they weren't so heavy, heavier than yours. Well, not so. Look 152 00:11:45.879 --> 00:11:50.399 I got a good look at him. Wait a minute, please hold it, 153 00:11:50.480 --> 00:12:05.120 hold it a little more on the nose. Yeah, you're right on 154 00:12:05.159 --> 00:12:09.399 the bridge of the nose, not so, not so straight, Luke, 155 00:12:09.679 --> 00:12:11.279 Could I be excuse for a second. I'm sure, go ahead and say 156 00:12:13.120 --> 00:12:16.120 we've been in here over an hour. I've been okay. The squad room 157 00:12:16.200 --> 00:12:18.840 is crawling with reporters. We'll have to give him some action soon. Don't 158 00:12:18.840 --> 00:12:22.360 you think I'd like to give him some action? And I don't get jumpy, 159 00:12:22.759 --> 00:12:24.480 that's billiot. That's pretty close to what he looked like. I think 160 00:12:24.480 --> 00:12:28.399 he had more of a point as the chin, you know it stood out 161 00:12:28.440 --> 00:12:31.120 more. I don't know. That's pretty close. You'll disagreed with everything I've 162 00:12:31.159 --> 00:12:35.320 said. Look, lady, I'm sorry, I just don't think it's chin. 163 00:12:35.440 --> 00:12:37.720 You don't think anything. You just say no, don't look like that. 164 00:12:39.240 --> 00:12:41.159 Say what you're like, lady, Get as nasty as you want I 165 00:12:41.200 --> 00:12:46.600 don't. Please, please look look. I know it's tough for everybody here 166 00:12:46.600 --> 00:12:48.559 a monkey.

Dan 385 00:31:52.720 --> 00:32:15.759 Coverley speaking, this is CBS the Stars addressed the Columbia Broadcasting System, welcome 386 00:32:15.799 --> 00:32:20.759 back. The one thing I noted in this episode, and I do see 387 00:32:20.880 --> 00:32:32.680 that sometimes people do this on radio programs where they had a break. Ideally, 388 00:32:32.720 --> 00:32:38.000 at the break you should have something that's a cliffhanger that draws your audience 389 00:32:38.079 --> 00:32:45.160 in to come back. In this case, we had Sergeant Grabb realizing he 390 00:32:45.200 --> 00:32:47.960 hadn't eaten all day and I was in suspense. Is he gonna get a 391 00:32:49.000 --> 00:32:52.440 sandwich? Sure? But other than that, this was a great episode as 392 00:32:52.480 --> 00:33:00.079 they're dealing with a very dangerously deranged person. Some pretty tenstrument addic action there 393 00:33:00.119 --> 00:33:07.759 with William Johnstone overwall, extremely well played.
