Who's that?

Me, darling. Nora.

Oh, what a beautiful surprise.

Oh, Winsley, you're, uh... You're packing.

Just switching hotel.

There's a convention coming in town, and they needed the room.

Switching hotels.

That's very funny. You didn't say anything about it?

I've been trying to call you all morning. Just came up.

I'm very glad you're changing hotels, Wesley. The service in this one is

terrible.

The switchboard, for example, told me that you were out all morning.

You see, I was calling you.

You were?

Yes, I, uh...

I located a few more pieces of jewelry and I took them to the appraiser.

Your appraiser, darling. The one you recommended so highly.

Did you see him?

Yes, I did.

It's very odd, though. He claims he never heard of you.

Well, he probably wasn't sure of you, darling.

What's more, he never heard of me or of my jewelry.

The jewelry you're supposed to have taken to him.

Well, he was obviously confused.

I'd better call him.

While you're at it, Lieutenant Garrett, why don't you call the Navy, too?

And when you do, they'll tell you there is no Lieutenant Wesley Garrett on their

roster.

Laura, what's gotten into you?

I didn't believe what the appraiser told me.

But I had to be sure, so I... So I called the Navy.

You're a fraud, Lieutenant.

You're a phony and a fake.

Ignore her, baby.

I've been working on a very special intelligence assignment.

I wouldn't be able to talk to you about it even after I got married.

I've even been trained not to talk in my sleep.

Where's my jewelry?

Stay away from that bag.

Move that.

Laura, why do you have to cause trouble?

That's all this adds up to, isn't it?

That's all you ever wanted.

Go and get the police.

The FBI.

Tonight's episode, The Impersonator.

Alerted by Nora Tobin, the Baltimore police found pieces of her stolen

in the suspect's hotel room.

A bracelet and a ring valued at $36 ,000 were missing.

Further investigation revealed that the suspect, calling himself Lieutenant

Wesley Garrett, had been masquerading as an officer in the United States Navy,

and the FBI entered the investigation.

Ziegler never went back to his hotel room.

And he left everything, including his uniform, personal papers, and his

fingerprints. The identification division matched the latents found in

with his fingerprint record.

Wesley W. Ziegler, also known as Walter Garrett, William West, Chester

Willoughby. When was this taken?

Five years ago.

He served time in Atlanta for passing bad checks.

And he's wanted on various bunco charges in Philadelphia, Newark, Charlotte,

North Carolina, and suspicion of murder in Virginia.

Murder? Apparently he's capable of it.

According to his victims, he gets pretty violent when he's trapped.

I think this is relevant.

In each case, the complaint was filed by a woman.

Well -off, unmarried?

Nora Coburn's a good example.

This man is a parasite.

He feeds on their loneliness.

The emotional damage he's caused can never be written up in these reports.

What did he steal from the Tobin woman?

An emerald bracelet and a small diamond ring.

Persuasive parasite.

Well, he convinced her that the jewelry was damaged.

Flawed. Said he'd take her to an appraiser, and the poor woman believed

everything he told her, including his proposal of marriage.

If he left everything in the hotel room, he'll have to do something about

raising money.

We've sent out flyers to all the jewelry dealers and appraisers and pawn shops

in case he tries to sell the bracelet and the ring.

We'd better keep an eye on the national fraudulent check file, too, just in case

he reverts to his old habits.

Sooner or later, he'll revert to his favorite habit, bilking lonely women.

I want him apprehended, Lewis, before it happens again.

I went over to Baltimore to interview Miss Tobin.

And work fast.

His next victim might not be as lucky as she was.

Good, good.

That wants you to try it again.

I told you I'd look you up if I ever got down this way.

What are you doing here in Georgia?

I'm just passing through on my way to Palm Beach.

Look, I'll keep on going if you don't want to. No, no, no, wait a minute.

rush off like that. I'm just surprised to see you. That's all.

I'm not looking for any handout.

I just figured we shared the same self for so long that I'd look you up if I

ever came down this way.

You're not in trouble, are you? Are you running?

Well, if I made a killing, I wouldn't be here.

Things been rough for you, huh?

Well, it was a lot tougher staying out of trouble than I thought.

I figured you'd be back chasing the rich women the minute you got out.

Well, I can't say I wasn't tempted, but... Well, I see you did it, huh, kid?

You got what you always wanted.

Yes, and I've never been happier.

No more of those gray walls.

Nothing but the blue sky and the blue water.

And the cry of the birds.

Yeah?

It's a sweet life. That's what you got, huh?

Okay, Wesley, listen. You come inside, get yourself a shave. I'll get you

something to eat, give you a few bucks, and you'll be on your way again, okay?

You always had a big heart, Sam.

No. Just grew a hard nose.

Man has to do that sometimes to protect what he owns.

It's exactly what you'd expect.

It was a lot of walks in the moonlight. It was many picnics on the beach. It was

endless dinners by candlelight. And it was an incredible number of beautiful

lies.

You know, looking back on it now, I think I always knew they were lies.

All right. I suspected it, really.

You see, I just... I couldn't make myself admit it.

I mean, he could be very, very charming.

How did you meet him?

Well, I moved to Baltimore just a few months ago. I didn't know a soul, so I

joined the tennis club. And I took tennis lessons because that was a

way of meeting a lot of new people.

And one day, this... A beautiful man in a dashing Navy uniform came and offered

to help me with my forehand.

Well, one thing led to another.

Yes, of course.

Is tennis his big interest?

Actually, he's a marvelous athlete.

He's very good at tennis and swimming and golf and sailing.

Sailing is his main interest.

Did he have a boat of his own?

Well, um...

He always rented the boats that we used, but he said that he owned his own boat

back home.

And where did he say that was?

He said that that was in Norfolk, Virginia.

He also said that he had won many races there, the Norfolk Regatta and a

lot of other things.

And what about friends and relatives?

Anyone he could go to for help?

No. Not any that I know of.

I feel like such a fool.

I'm so ashamed of myself.

Oh, I shouldn't be if I were you.

You are not the first woman to be taken in by him.

Matter of fact, the Norfolk police want him on suspicion of murder.

Murder?

Well,

I guess I ought to count my blessings, oughtn't I?

except I'm not feeling very charitable at the moment.

That man used me, Inspector. He used me in the worst possible way, and I'm not

going to draw a happy breath until he's caught.

You are going to catch him, aren't you, Inspector?

Yes, Miss Tobin, we are.

the ring isn't worth much, but I should think that the diamond's worth quite a

bit.

Indeed, yes.

They're excellent stones.

I'd like a new setting on it. Something simple and elegant for my wife. Do you

know what I mean?

Of course.

Would you like our designer to prepare some sketches for you? I would.

How long would that take?

Oh, three, four days. If you like, we can call you when they're ready.

That'd be just fine.

The name is Chester.

Arthur Chester.

All right, Mr. Chester, I'll give you a receipt for the ring.

Oh, is that the correct time?

Yes, I believe so.

The banks are closed, aren't they?

What if you do me a favor?

Of course, Mr. Chester.

Would you cash a check for me?

Well, it isn't really our policy.

No, I suppose not.

And it is a rather large sum.

$1 ,500.

But you could look into my credit, and you could use that ring as a collateral.

It should be worth about $5 ,000, $6 ,000.

Well, just a moment.

I'll speak to the manager.

I am sorry for the delay, Mr. Chester.

We'll be happy to cash your check.

Oh, thank you.

May I borrow your pen?

Certainly.

According to the police, it happened right here in downtown Norfolk about

years ago.

He was using the name Chester Willoughby.

Is that the copy of the police report?

Yes, sir. Thank you.

The woman called the police accusing Willoughby or Ziegler of counting her

of $13 ,000.

When they went to question her, they found her dead.

The windows shut and the gas on.

Apparently they weren't convinced it was suicide.

Well, there was a bad bruise on her head. Might have happened when she

and hit the floor.

Or it might have been the result of foul play.

Well, Ziegler did have a boat.

20 -foot sail, but his license on it expired two years ago.

Who owns it now?

The Square Rigger Yacht Club, but they haven't seen Ziegler in years.

He just left it in the slip and disappeared.

Well, since he has two major interests, sailing and rich women, though not

necessarily in that order, chances are he'll go where he can find both.

We'd better start checking on the yacht clubs.

Yeah, I want flyers sent to all of them up and down the coast.

Get right on it, Tom. He may have picked out his next prospect by now.

Waiter. Can you tell me if a Mr. Caldwell is around?

Right here, gentlemen, over there.

Thank you.

Excuse me, Mr. Caldwell.

I'm Bill West, Vice Commodore, Lake Washington YC in Seattle.

Well.

Nice to have you aboard, Mr. West.

Thank you, sir. Sit down.

Well, you're a long way from home, young man.

You here on a vacation?

Well, yes and no, sir.

I'm thinking about opening up a branch office here in Palm Beach.

I wanted to check out the yachting facilities before making a decision.

Pleasure before business, eh?

Not many of us can afford that luxury.

What business are you in?

A brokerage firm.

Stocks and bonds.

Ah, you must be very talented.

Do you make investments, sir?

I've taken a bath or two.

Daddy?

Jessica. Hi.

Mr. West, my daughter, Jessica Bowling. How do you do?

Very nice meeting you, Mrs. Bowling.

Thank you.

Please sit down.

Jessica, Mr. West has come all the way from Seattle just to look over our

facilities. Oh, do you approve, Mr. West?

Very much so.

The name is Bill.

Well, the sunshine here in Florida is quite different than the fog in Seattle.

I should imagine that you and your husband are out in the water constantly.

My husband died a year ago.

I'm terribly sorry.

Well, Jessica, why don't you show Mr. West around the club?

Perhaps you can talk him into staying in Palm Beach permanently.

I'd like that very much.

Well, I'm not much of a tour guide, but I'll try.

Very nice meeting you, Mr. Caldwell. Thank you.

How long are you staying, Mr. West?

Well, that depends.

I'm thinking about opening up a brokerage firm here.

Oh, stocks and bonds.

That's something I'll never understand.

Well, who does?

My husband did very well at it.

But I'm sure I've made a mess of our portfolio.

I know I shouldn't ask, but what do you think of amalgamated metal?

I just bought a thousand shares.

Madam, I'd say that you were exploiting me.

Forgive me. I know I'm a shameless woman.

Shameless enough to have a drink with me?

Know something I think I am lead the way

It's Assistant Director Ward, Inspector.

Morning, Arthur.

Well, you were right, Lewis. Our friend Ziegler has reverted to his old habits.

Bad checks?

Just one so far for $1 ,500, using the alias Arthur Chester.

He cashed it at a jewelry shop in Sea Island, Georgia, using Nora Tobin's ring

as collateral.

Any word on the bracelet?

Nothing yet.

It was clever. The way he cashed in on that ring is obviously avoiding pawn

shops. Yeah, he's far from Sea Island now, of course. Does he have any friends

there we know of?

Just one, a man named Sam Kehoe.

Runs a scuba diving school at the marina.

He and Ziegler were cellmates in Atlanta.

I better have a talk with him.

It's a good idea, Lewis.

You know something, Bill? You're a marvelous sailor.

Skipper is only as good as his crew.

You been sailing long?

All my life. I was raised on the water.

When I get to know you a little bit better, I'll even show you my webbed

I knew there was something distinctive about you.

Well, not distinctive enough to stay out of the Navy, though.

Oh, were you overseas?

Two years.

In and around Vietnam.

Fact is, I'm still in the reserves.

Word is that my unit might become reactivated.

Oh.

Would that change your plans?

I mean, you know, about staying here in Palm Beach?

Would it make a difference to you?

Well... We always need good sailors.

Especially ones with webbed... Jesse.

Feet.

Bill, don't.

Sorry.

I didn't mean to do that.

Bill. I know exactly what you're going through.

I went through the same nightmares when my wife died.

Your wife?

Yes, I was married.

When Carol died, I knew I'd never look at another woman again. The thought

would make me feel guilty.

Oh, I know.

I know that feeling.

I'm past all that, Bill.

We're never past all that. Be honest with yourself, Jesse.

When you think you have those memories tucked nicely, neatly away, why, you run

across an old letter at the bottom of a drawer.

Somebody walks by using the same perfume.

No, we're not meant to.

Forget old memories.

Bill, I don't think your wife or my husband...

Would want us to stop living just because they're gone Jesse if I believe

really felt like that of course I do but but We both know how

quickly life can be snatched away

Well, I got to hand it to the guy.

He could sell a snorkel to a halibut.

What'd he sell you?

He sold me on how broke he was.

Oh, he didn't complain or say anything, but somehow I wound up giving him a bed,

a couple of meals, and a $50 loan.

That's how he operates.

And that isn't all.

He walked out of here with my brand -new blazer and an $18 pair of deck shoes.

How long did he stay with you?

Just overnight.

You know something? I actually think he resents you.

If you're nice to him.

You do him a favor and wham.

He steals your blind.

You didn't know he was wanted?

No, but I should have suspected it.

Last time I saw him was when he walked out of prison.

And would you believe it? Even then he had a girl waiting for him.

Any idea who she was?

Henriette, Henrietta, something like that. Did he give you any idea of his

when he was here?

Ziegler has only one plan.

Find a wealthy woman and take her for every dime she's got. In my blazer and

deck shoes.

Where would he look?

Any high -rent district, resort town probably, Miami, Palm Beach, Biloxi.

Hey, Palm Beach.

He said he was just passing through on his way to Palm Beach.

Thanks very much.

Listen, if you plan on doing any shooting, make sure he isn't wearing my

blazer.

It really frightens me, Father. I think it's getting serious.

Oh, you don't look too frightened.

But aren't you rushing things a bit?

You two have only known each other a short time.

What do you think of him, Father?

Well, those stocks you told you to buy, how are they doing? Up two and a half

points. Excellent sailor, too.

I think I love him, Father. I really do.

Well, for what it's worth, young lady, I've never seen you quite this happy.

Hello, sir.

I'm sorry I'm late.

I've gotten some bad news.

What's wrong?

I just got a wire from the Navy Department.

They're recording me for active duty.

Oh, no.

Well, that is bad news.

Can't you get out of it?

I've been on the phone the past hour. No luck.

I have to report in two weeks.

Excuse me.

Jessica, wait.

I'm sorry, Bill. I want you to marry me now. Right now.

I know I sound like an impulsive teenager.

But there's so little time, and I love you so much.

It might be the biggest mistake we'll ever make, but... Mr. Colwell, would you

please tell your daughter to quit staring at me and say something?

I don't know what to say.

I can't tell her what to say, Bill, but there's nothing wrong with being an

impulsive teenager.

They seem to have the most fun these days.

Look, we can fly to Alabama and be married in ten minutes.

No delays, no red tape. And spend the next two weeks on our honeymoon.

Oh, Bill.

Do you expect me to say no?

I don't know what you're saying.

Waiter, champagne, please.

I'm almost grateful to the Navy.

Now, wait a second. We're not going to talk about the Navy or think about it

two whole weeks, right?

All right. Now, tomorrow, I'm going to call up and make reservations for the

first plane leaving in the morning.

Wedding in Alabama, honeymoon in Bermuda.

Oh, that's a little time I've got so much to do. I have to do my hair and get

my safe deposit box.

Wait a minute. Safe deposit box? I want you to be proud of me, darling.

If there was ever a time to wear the Coldwell jewels, it's on my honeymoon.

Hey, look, I know a little steak place. Let's try it tonight, huh? Good idea.

Good.

Harriet?

Someone you know?

My husband.

Husband?

You, uh... All right, joking, aren't you?

Of course.

Very bad joke.

Look, Fred, is it all right if I meet you in the car in a minute?

Of course.

What are you looking at?

That woman.

Is she staring at us or is it my imagination?

Who is she, Bill? Do you know her?

She's an old friend of mine.

Well, I should say hello to her.

Look, I'll just be a moment.

There you are.

Operator, I'd like the police, please.

Now you made me lose my dime.

That makes $9 ,000 and 10 cents. You've got to listen to me.

If you had $6 ,000 for the mink coat, $3 ,000 and checks I never signed.

Oh, here you are. Here's a dime. Call the police. I deserve it.

I'm disappointed.

No sad tales of woe, no elaborate excuses, Wesley.

Oh, you're not going to believe anything I tell you anyway, are you? Not

anymore.

I have something to say to you, and you've got to believe me.

Now, I don't know what you've been doing with yourself, Harriet, but you look

absolutely beautiful.

I know.

You see, when you walked out of our little rose -covered penthouse, I had a

couple of very bad weeks.

And I said to myself, get a hold of yourself.

Someone has to care about me.

And I said, it might as well be me.

And it's done wonders for me.

Well, then you would say that you owe me something, huh?

Oh, and I'm not likely to forget that.

Now, suppose you trot over there and let her know that you're still a married

man, Wesley.

I would have thought by now you would have had it annulled.

Oh, I just couldn't let you off that easily.

Harriet.

You're not serious.

You still feel enough to forgive me now, don't you?

Well, it's either that or let the law put you away.

And I think that would be a terrible waste.

Look, I'm staying at the Neptune Garden Hotel.

I got lonely.

Jessica, I'd like to introduce you to Mrs.

Harriet Ziegler.

This is Jessica Bowling.

How do you do? Hello.

Well, I was just telling Harriet how nice it would be if we could all spend

time together. You see, we're such old friends and we have so much to talk

about.

Oh, I believe you said you were staying at the Neptune Garden Hotel?

That's right. And you were staying at the, uh... The Bayshore Apartments.

Bayshore Apartments. We'll call you tomorrow.

Mrs. Ziegler?

Yes. The parking lot attendant just called. Your friends are waiting.

Thank you.

Nice to meet you, Miss Bell.

Take care, love.

She's very attractive, Phil. Oh.

Well, I think we ought to, uh...

We ought to get a move on, hmm?

You've got a lot of packing to do and we have a big day in store for us

tomorrow, don't we?

Good evening, Inspector.

Glenn. We've got a telegram.

You're on Tom Colby. I share. Glenn and I worked together on the Callahan case.

Hi, Tom.

No need yet?

Not yet.

The flyers were sent out to the local yacht folks last night.

Well, then that's where we'll start.

Going somewhere, Wesley?

Harriet, who let you in here?

Well, it was simple. I just told the porter that I was your wife.

And for $20, he'd believe anything, even the truth.

Well, I was on my way down to see you, you see. Well, it's just that once you

finally found me, I just didn't want to risk you losing me again.

Make me a drink.

All right.

You know, you really don't have to keep on running.

I could easily be persuaded to forgive you.

I don't deserve that.

You're right.

You don't.

Then why bother?

Then you really don't know.

Money.

Listen, why don't you give me a day or two to get it all together for you?

Plus interest.

From Jessica, what's her name? No.

That's just the daughter of a man I have a deal with.

Well, I've already just written it off as a bad debt, and if you pay me back,

it'll just foul up my whole bookkeeping system.

Then it isn't the money you want.

If you'd just hung around a little while longer, you'd have realized that all

you took from me was chicken feet.

And what is it you want?

Revenge?

That's what I wanted.

The police would have been here to meet you instead of me.

All right, Harriet.

You win.

That easily?

Spoiling all my fun?

Well, I'm tired of playing games with you.

You want me as your husband because you love me, right?

Well, here I am.

I'll get your things and move in tomorrow.

You used to be much more romantic.

Then, of course, you were lying.

No more lying.

Then we understand each other.

Maybe too well.

You make one wrong move and I'll hand you right over to the police.

Your own husband?

It really would be such a terrible waste.

Can I help you, gentlemen?

FBI. We'd like to talk to you.

Certainly.

Does this man look familiar to you?

Yes, that's Mr. West.

Is he a club member?

No, he's a guest. From Seattle, I believe.

Do you know where we can reach him?

He's usually here in the evenings.

Mr. Caldwell, our commodore, would probably know.

And where can we find Mr. Caldwell?

He's judging a race down the coast.

Left on the committee boat about an hour ago. Won't be back till sundown.

Is there anyone else who might know this man?

Well, he was talking to Mrs. Ziegler last night.

Mrs. Ziegler, you say?

One of our new members.

Is there a Mr. Ziegler?

No, I think she's a widow or divorced.

Hold on, we probably have her address in the office.

Mrs. Ziegler.

It's got to be more than a coincidence.

Hello. Good morning, Mrs. West.

Good morning to you, Mr. West.

I just wanted to let you know that we're going to catch the 1145 plane.

You've got an hour to change your mind.

Not a chance. You're stuck with me.

Good.

Are you packed yet?

Almost. I just got back from the bank. I've got all the jewels.

Fine.

I'll pick you up at 11 o 'clock.

I'll be ready.

And, Bill, I really do love you, darling.

I love you too, Jess.

I'll see you soon.

Bye -bye.

Hello, Jessica.

Well, Mrs. Ziegler, how nice of you to come.

May I come in?

Yes.

I don't want to sound rude, but I'm just getting ready to go out.

Something important?

Yes. Bill and I are getting married.

Oh, well, my dear, that is important.

I won't keep you any longer than is absolutely necessary.

Wait, wait a minute.

Where are you going?

To see Bill.

Look, I told you his name is not Bill West. It's Ziegler, Wesley Ziegler. I

don't believe it. I don't believe a word you've told me.

Look, look at this ring. It's a wedding ring he bought me just about a year ago.

You're a liar.

Look, he has no intention of marrying you.

He's only after money, anything...

Jewelry, furs, we're stealing.

If he's that kind of a man, why are you still married to him? Look, I know what

he is and who he is, and I'm in love with him. Of course, you're the only one

who qualifies. But I'm tougher than you, and I know I can handle him, don't you?

I don't want to hurt you, Tessie.

Well, she's not out here.

No, she's on her way up from the parking lot.

Mrs. Ziegler?

Yes. Inspector Erskine, FBI.

This is Special Agent Colby.

Is something wrong?

We'd like to talk to you.

About what?

Wesley W. Ziegler.

This man.

He's my husband.

Can you tell us where we can find him?

I'm... I haven't seen him in over a year. On the contrary. I believe you

talking with him last night at the North Bay Yacht Club.

What do you want with him?

He's charged with impersonating a naval officer.

And interstate transportation has stolen property.

The state of Virginia wants to talk to him about a murder.

A murder?

That's nonsense. I mean, Wesley would never murder anyone.

You can help us by telling us where he is.

Look, I told you, I have no idea where it is.

I hope you're not trying to protect him.

I have no reason to protect him. I'm glad. Neither have any of his other

victims, I assure you.

Meaning what?

Meaning you're not the only one.

He's left behind a whole trail of women who trusted him, like you, who found

that trust used as a weapon against them.

One of them was either a suicide or was murdered.

She felt exactly as you do about him.

If you want it, save this number.

Inspector Erskine.

Oh, Jeffy.

Well, what are you doing here?

What's wrong?

I had a visitor a few minutes ago.

Harriet Sigler.

Oh, well, that was friendly of her, wasn't it?

She said that you were married.

That you're her husband.

Oh, no.

Well, that woman is in worse shape than I thought.

Jesse, I should have warned you about her.

You see, many years ago, before she was married, we used to see each other.

Nothing serious, just an occasional date from time to time.

But she wanted to make much more of it than it was, so I had to live with her.

And I told her.

But I didn't think that she could be anything more to me than just a good

friend.

Well, she never forgave me for that.

I knew she was bitter, but not to this extreme.

Is that the truth, Bill? Are you telling me the truth?

Yes.

The things she said about you, Bill, they were terrible.

Well, she had no right to upset you.

You see, that's the sad part about it.

The way people hurt other people.

What? Come on, darling. We've got to get moving, don't we?

Did you bring your things?

No. I... I ran out without them.

Well, we'll have time enough to go back to your place and then to the airport,

huh?

Well, we can take a later plane, Bill.

What's the matter with you, Jessie?

Come on, you want to sabotage our honeymoon?

Well, we'll never make it. Why don't I forget about the bags? I can always pick

up something in Bermuda. What's come over you?

That sounds like insanity. You mean just leave your jewels lying around for

anyone? Now, come on.

It's the jewels you want, isn't it?

Jessie, what's come over you?

It's true, isn't it?

Operator, give me the police.

Jesse, you give me that phone.

Now, listen, if you love me, really love me, you wouldn't think about the police

or Harriet or anything else or what anybody ever told you about me, would

She was right.

Everything she told me was true.

Jesse. I'm going to the police.

Jesse. You can't stop me.

Jesse, you come back here.

Jesse, you come back here.

Thank you.

Grab the wall.

What'll happen to him now, Inspector?

He'll be returned to Virginia first to face murder charges.

Oh, no. Murder?

Very lucky woman, Mrs. Bowling.

He never turned violent until I threatened to call the police.

I wasn't really going to do it. I just wanted desperately for him to make me

believe that what I'd heard wasn't true.

Even when he drew a gun, it was like a bad dream.

I guess I... I suppose I am very lucky.

We'll be happy to see you home, if you like.

I'll be fine. Thank you, really.

Thank you.

Wesley W. Ziegler was tried and convicted in state court of murder.

He was later found guilty in federal court of assaulting a federal officer,

impersonating a naval lieutenant and interstate transportation of stolen

property.
