Little Richard

Richard Mell, just released from prison for forging an insignificant check in the name of the mayor’s father-in-law, is sent straight back to jail because the corrupt inspector needed to arrest a surrogate armed robber. Free again, he’s convinced by his friend Frau Brunehilda to rob the mayor’s accumulated bribe money from a secret safe.

CBS Radio Mystery Theater is a radio drama series created by Himan Brown that was broadcast on CBS Radio Network affiliates from 1974 to 1982, and later in the early 2000s was repeated by the NPR satellite feed. In New York City it was not aired by the then all-news WCBS but by its originating station, WOR, which produced and announced it as simply Radio Mystery Theater.
