A ★★½ review of Fingerprints Don't Lie (1951)

Richard Travis is a police scientist who specializes in fingerprints. his testimony has just convicted an artist of murdering the mayor. The mayor's daughter (Sheila Ryan) convinces him to reopen the investigation. Travis is also troubled by having sent someone to death row. A web of corruption and murder is exposed. Would've rated this a little higher but the soundtrack is painfully annoying. Tom Neal (DETOUR) is the D.A. Directed by Sam Newfield.
