My problem with this particular McCloud episode is that it never should have gone down the way it did. Dennis Weaver who is on stakeout trailing a particular cabdriver with Terry Carter is accused of shooting his quarry James Ingersoll in the back. The reason is because of the hog leg colt.45 McCloud carries. That's what ballistics show. But as McCloud pointed out he's not the only one in New York with such a western weapon. The police forensics team should have been able to clear him and determine it wasn't his particular .45 that did the job.
Ingersoll was an illegal alien who obtained a hack license through the connections of the cab company owner who is using his particular set of illegal alien cab drivers as drug mules. Said owner is the dapper George Hamilton who is quite rich and well connected.
Of course in the end the mystery is solved, but I can't believe that it should have take them this long.
