This Is Your FBI: The Phantom Hitchhiker

The Equitable Life Assurance Society presents This is your FBI This is your FBI The Official Broadcast from the Files of a Federal Bureau of Investigation presented transcribed as a Public Service by the Equitable Life Assurance Society of the United States and the Equitable Society Representative in your Community We Americans like to think of ourselves as independent-minded self-reliant people who believe in standing on our own two

feet, and that's exactly why over five million of us have become members of the Equitable Life Assurance Society of the United States. Of our own free wills, we have joined forces in the Equitable Society to provide more secure futures for ourselves and our families. It was because we liked to look out for ourselves

that we first decided to talk to an Equitable Society representative. In about 13 minutes I'll have further information on the Equitable representative in your own community and the many services he offers. The subject of our FBI file, murder, its title, the Phantom Hitchhiker.

A special agent of the Federal Bureau of Investigation has something in common with a good newspaper reporter. Before writing his story, the newspaperman must find the answers to fired questions. Who, what, where, when and how.

The Special Agent must also know that, and more. If possible he must also learn why the crime was committed, what weapons were used, whether or not there were accomplices, and how much was gained. It is a yardstick of their thoroughness that no case of false arrest has ever been proved against a member of your FBI.

That record did not come as a result of any accident. It came because every special agent is a trained professional law enforcement officer, and also because every special agent accepts each assignment as a challenge.
