Young Skeegie, Old Sparky & J. Edgar
Season 1 Episode 3
As the FBI fumble their way through the case, a skeptical Sherriff D.C. Coleman pursues his own investigation. He reaches out to several of the locals to confirm his belief that the kidnapper was right under his nose. His folksy charm and wry sense of humor disguise a keen observational skill set based on years’ worth of police work. The sheriff determines that the comments of Franklin Pierce McCall, another of the town’s good old boys, do not add up. McCall agrees to come to the Miami FBI office for an interview where he is “braced” relentlessly by Coleman and a federal interrogator. McCall finally breaks down and confesses. However, he says he was no more than a co-conspirator in the kidnapping and that he can only identify the location of the ransom money, not what happened to the boy. The Feds head out and locate the cash exactly where McCall says it was buried.
