Dragnet - Big Red
Joe Friday and Ed Jacobs are assigned to the Narcotics Detail. When Friday gets a call from a former suspect he once arrested, a meeting is arranged.
The informant tells Friday a narcotics dealer from back east named Cadillac Red has a large amount of heroin and he wants to edge his way into the Los Angeles Market. His problem, however, is he has few local contacts and needs to find prospective sellers.
It is decided Friday will pose as a buyer from Fresno and try to trap Cadillac Red while making a transaction. This is aan exciting two-part story with both parts inclusive in this presentation.
