A town is gripped in horror...some fiend has been murdering little girls! Not surprisingly, there is a lot of pressure on the police and the investigator in charge, Lt. Wagner (Nehemiah Persoff), is determined to catch the monster. However, his search is surprisingly easy...or so it seems. After all, a simple-minded guy (Robert Middleton) has done a lot to draw attention to himself in his attempts to hide evidence he might have done it....and he looks just like the police sketch of the killer. But could it be that someone else is actually the killer? Wagner is determined to be sure he's got the right man.
This is a very well written episode and you can't help but get sucked into the story considering the storyline. My only misgiving, and it's NOT the show's fault, is that these sorts of killers/molesters are not as obviously twisted as the guy in this one....more often they seem amazingly normal and are known to the victims. Overall, well worth your time...and expertly crafted.
