  Former "Henry Aldrich" James Lydon is cast against type as a mean-spirited reform school alumnus in Chain of Evidence. Despite the boy's volatile temper, police lieutenant Bill Elliot is convinced that Lydon is a good kid underneath. Elliot's faith in his fellow man is sorely tested when Lydon is accused of murdering businessman Hugh Sanders at the urging of Sanders' craven wife Tina Carver. With the help of Lydon's girlfriend Claudia Barrett, Elliot follows the chain of evidence in hopes of proving the boy's innocence. This Allied Artists programmer was originally released on a double bill with Dragoon Wells Massacre.
