It Has to Be True

James Correll works as an assistant sales manager for an electronics company. On his way to Chicago, two highway cops pull him over, search him, and bring him to the police station. The police say he killed a woman he doesn't even know - they found his clothes and gun in her room. Correll says he didn't do it, but a police psychiatrist tells such a believable story about how Correll was involved that he begins to think he really did commit the murder.
