Todays Mystery: A boarding house operator accuses a young police officer of assault, battery, and soliciting a bribe after a narcotics arrest. As Friday and Jacobs investigate, conflicting witness statements and questions about the complainant’s injuries force them to determine whether an officer crossed the line—or whether someone is trying to frame him.
