Transcript

Mr. District Attorney, starring David Bryan. Mr. District Attorney, champion of the people, defender of truth, guardian of our fundamental rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. And it shall be my duty as District Attorney, not only to prosecute to the limit of the law, all persons accused of crimes perpetrated within this county, but to defend with equal vigor, the rights and privileges of all its citizens.

This is David Bryan. In a moment we'll bring you another case from the files of Mr. District Attorney. The first a word from our sponsor. And now here is our star, David Bryan, as Paul Garrett. Mr. District Attorney.

One of the most important factors in fighting lawlessness is the person who has witnessed a crime or knows something about it. Usually these people are cooperative and helpful, but sometimes, as in the case you were about to hear, the witness tries to turn his knowledge into profit, becoming a criminal himself.

Okay, let's get him. Hold a friend, we're going in with you. I'm sorry, but it's only 8.30, the bank doesn't open for business until 10, I just stepped out for some breakfast. Well, you know why you stepped out, we know you're the manager that joint, now fix this door so it's unlocked and don't argue.

You mean it's a hold-up? I'll fix it door. If I find it locked when we leave, I'll blow your guts out. Ah, ah, ah, ah, I'll fix it. I'll fix it. There. OK, let's go in.

Straight back to the vault. Prow your people up and behind the counter. Act natural. Yes, sir. Will you please come out here, everybody. Everybody, please. You're headed right, Willie. They've already got the fold open for us.
