Casey, Crime Photographer
Wanted: A Gun
NBC (1950)
by
"Wanted: A Gun" is a slightly below-average entry in the Casey series. It features a pet store owner selling illegal guns, with a plot filled with misdirection involving rival business partners and a murder that leads to attempted poisoning. Casey and Ann navigate through the chaos, all while the special at the Blue Note is pigs knuckles and sauerkraut!
The episode presents a complex web of motives, with a jealous husband found dead and a wife questioned. As the investigation unfolds, it becomes clear that the woman had no part in the murders, and the real killer used her perfume to mislead the detectives. This show is often confused with another episode titled "Gun Wanted," but the differences in plot and announcer make it distinct.
