Parole, Inc. ~ 1948 -BW

QUICKIE: Politicians are corrupt and the undercover g-man is gonna bust 'em!

PLOT: When several notorious criminals are unjustifiably released on parole, the Federal Government smells a rat and sends ace agent Richard Hendricks to investigate. Hendricks infiltrates the gang responsible for the parole racket by posing as a much-wanted convict Rick Carson. However, the wily Barney Rodescu, who is the brain behind the racket, soon finds out Carson's true identity. Carson's life is now in grave danger.

SUMMARY: This is a pretty good movie and it moves pretty well. The surprise here is that a female is the head of the gang. And they don't seem to be doing too much illegal stuff other than running a "numbers game with punch cards"? The story comes to a climactic ending with the parole board gang meeting with Carson at a country cottage. We can pretty much guess what will be happening, as the movie begins with Carson all bandaged up laying in a hospital bed recounting the story of the corrupt parole board into a dictaphone. So, the story is told in retrospect, with snips of Carson recovering bit by bit.
