There's even an old Dragnet episode with a locked room 'murder' mystery plot:
- Man with gun enters home to confront his mother-in-law, and shoots the Bible she's reading
- The mother-in-law shoots the man, but the wound is not immediately fatal.
- Man stumbles into an adjacent study and locks the door behind him, then dies.
- Initially suicide is assumed, but the ballistics don't match the gun in his hand.
- The bullet he fired is stuck in the Bible he shot, undetected by anyone.
Kind of lame and contrived by comparison to Poe and others, but for a 1967 TV show...
