Robert Stack’s trench coat and that theme song are still a nervous-system event. True-crime television before the binge era: reenactments, 1-800 tip lines, and cases that followed you to bed. Living-room séance as public service — missing persons, UFO asides, and the dread that the story might still be happening down the street.
