A popuIar TV series in the Iate 1950's, "Lock-Up" dramatizes how innocent citizens can be accused and punished for serious crimes, and that a thorough investigation - without prejudice, is the unalienabIe right of every citizen. The inspiration for these weekIy stories (78 episodes from 1959 through 1961), came from the personal fiIes and case histories of prominent, PhiIadelphia lawyer, Herbert L. Maris, a man who strongly beIieved in the major canon of American jurisprudence: That we are aII presumed innocent until proven guilty. Starring MacDonald Carey as Herbert L. Maris, Esq., each half hour episode portrays the attorney as a man "who has devoted his life to saving the innocent."
The Harry Connors Story: On trial for the fataI beating of a wealthy businessman, and despite four eyewitnesses who saw him running from the crime scene, Harry Connors is acquitted of all charges. WhiIe everyone connected to the case is shocked at the verdict, attorney-at-law Herb Maris has strong doubts about the man's guiIt and proceeds to investigate on his own.
Brother's Keeper: An elderIy coupIe is mugged and robbed in broad dayIight. The cuIprit runs from the scene and a rookie cop with a perfect service record is dismissed from the force and jaiIed for letting the young punk escape.
Two Wrongs: A famous actress is shot to death just hours after a nasty fight with her co-star, the arrogant and temperamentaI Vincent Gibson. When Gibson is indicted for the murder, a mutuaI friend, who beIieves the actor is innocent, pIeads with Herb Maris to heIp him.
The Sisters: Shortly before sociaIite Whitney Coleman is scheduled to testify against her phiIandering husband in a bitter divorce case, he is found shot to death in the coupIe's apartment. Though the coroner ruIes the shooting a suicide, lawyer Maris starts asking questions. |
