These early shows of the police weren't fact based, but just good old crime drama. As was usual then, music filled the first and last parts of the show, so that the local station announcer could do a commercial or two.
A drunk was in Smokey Joe’s place afraid to go home so the captain sent a police officer over to escort him. The drunk was called James Davis and he was acting very scared. The officer took him home at about one am before taking himself home to bed. The next day James Davis was discovered dead. It seems he had good reason to be scared to go home.
