The Youngstown Credit Group Matter

Originally Aired: December 8, 1951 When $48,000 in payroll funds is stolen from the Youngstown Credit Group, Johnny Dollar is sent to investigate the violent hold-up that left one man dead and another hospitalized. As he peels back the layers, Dollar uncovers a sophisticated robbery planned with insider knowledge and executed with ruthless precision. Interviews with the surviving victim and the widow of the deceased reveal a chilling possibility: that the murdered man may have been complicit. With the clock ticking and the suspects disappearing into the city, Dollar teams up with Police Chief Edward J. Allen to follow a trail of betrayal, a California-bound escape plan, and a fatal double-cross. In a deadly showdown with the feared Thayer brothers—recently returned underworld figures—the case concludes in gunfire, confession, and justice. A tale of trust broken and lives lost in a desperate grab for easy money.
