The Open Range - Tales of the Texas Rangers | 08/26/1950 (Ep08)
Summary
In this "Texas Rangers" episode, Ranger Jace Pearson investigates the murder of rancher Maury Buckler and the theft of his cattle. After discovering the stolen herd at Camp Hood, Pearson tracks the culprits to a man impersonating Vic Morath, who used forged checks and altered brands to cover his tracks. With the help of Bud Kurtz, Pearson identifies the real Morath and the true perpetrator, Buzz Black, through a photo from a rodeo team. The episode concludes with a high-speed chase and shootout where the killers are captured, and the murder weapon is recovered.
