Quotes 

• Inspector Stevens : A whole series of coincidences, just like you said the other night.

  Ann Quinn : Coincidences? That's how you convicted my husband! He dies tomorrow night. It isn't right a man should die on circumstantial evidence alone. Can't you say anything?

  Inspector Stevens : Our hands are tied, Mrs. Quinn.

  Ann Quinn : All you're interested in is killing somebody! You don't care who it is, just as long as you kill somebody! Well, it'll be on your conscience, you hear?

• Inspector Stevens : I've been on the police force for twenty-five years. I've turned in some honeys for indictment, but never in all that time have I had such an unbeatable, airtight case as I've got against you.

• Detective Clint Judd : No matter how you look at it, it's nothing but a loosely connected series of coincidences. You don't mind if I look into it, do you?

  Inspector Stevens : If that's the way you want to spend Christmas.
