Murder Preferred

A woman tries to hide the shame of her husband killing himself by making it look like someone murdered him instead. When police arrest the wrong man for the crime, she confesses the truth to the lawyer she pays to help the innocent person.

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.
