All-Famous Police Cases #16
The issue contains true crime stories presented as cases from crime files. One notable story involves a man named Hale who operates a liquor smuggling scheme using trucks and an Indian trading post as cover, eventually getting caught by authorities. Another case features Frank Denham, a prisoner who receives a letter from his wife stating she has children and wants him reformed, but the prison warden denies his parole recommendation, believing he would kill his wife if released. The comic also includes a story about a criminal's crime spree at age twenty-two involving a jewelry store holdup, followed by an apartment break-in at age twenty-four.
