A noel Last night "The Untouchables" portrayed the criminal activities Soren of Vincent ' Mad Dog" Coll, a New York hoodlum who had a psychopathic hatred towards New York beer baron "Dutch" £chultz. The program depicted means by which Call, a demented thug with uncontrollable homicidal tendencies, attempted to cause Schultz financial ruin. In trying to hurt Schultz, Coll kidnaps and murders one "Lefty" Gallagher, a Schultz bodyguard, for whom he attempted to extort $100, 000 ransom from Schultz. There is no indication whatsoever of interstate transportation of the kidnap victim. In fact it appears that the body was found in New York City, the-same place where the kidnaping occurs. ‘The Untouchables” headed by Els ess entered the action following the kidnaping, commenting to . local police that they can go into this now because of thekidnaping. While at no | | time is any mention made that The Untouchables" are connected with the FBI, the suggestion is conveyed that jurisdiction in kidnap matters falls within the authority of ' The Untouchables. " waltgy/rinehel once again figured prominently as a narrator of this program. pose OBSERVATION: While no mention was made that "The Untouchables” are members of the FBI, there is a tendency to usurp FBI jurisdiction for the purposes of portraying achievements of other law enforcement agencies. A continuation of this trend will be watched carefully as future programs of this series are monitored by the Crime Research Section.
