In "Candidate for Crime" (1973), Nelson Hayward (played by Jackie Cooper) shoots his campaign manager because he knows where all the proverbial bodies are buried.  Columbo must sift through a myriad of clues including a smashed street lamp, a broken watch, and a new jacket to pin the crime on Hayward.  Is this episode a grand old party?  Or is it not even good enough for the primaries?  Listen to what Steve and Sean thought and find out!
