The Man From Homicide - The Lucille Forbes Case

Old Time Radio Mysteries

Lieutenant Lou Dana arrives at the scene of the crime, which is the ladies lounge at the local theater. The victim is identified as Lucille Forbes. Dana noticed that her wrists were cut. Sergeant Meyers says "Maybe she did it herself, Lou. She might have broken up with her boyfriend and committed suicide. It happens sometime". Dana says "Yes it does, but not this time. You've seen how people die, they don't do it gently even if they want to die. They lose consciousness and then the death spasms start. The blood doesn't run out of the wrists in two neat pools, it spatters things up. There is only one way she could die that easy with her wrists cut. She was drugged. Have the boys from the crime lab do some tests".
