The Mouthpiece

    District Attorney Bill Perkins decides that he needs first-hand evidence in extremely difficult cases, so he slips on his mask and hat to become the Mouthpiece, crime-stopper, savagely meting out justice for those who would escape the long arm of the law.

He did carry a revolver, a "come-along chain," and a set of mini-handcuffs.
