POUND OF FLESH
Original Airdate: Dec. 19, 1965
Synopsis. At a U.S. Army garrison in Missouri, a hotheaded private (played by Bruce Dern) is the prime suspect of a brutal slaying. The victim is the wife of a popular chaplain (played by Leslie Nielsen). The private has a motive, while both a crusading newspaper columnist (played by Malcolm Atterbury) and Army and city officials want the Bureau to make a quick arrest. Erskine, however, believes the man is innocent.
