Matlock (1986)
S09E13 The Target
Episode Overview
Matlock becomes an unexpected witness when a boat explosion claims the life of Judge Michael Sterns. If it weren't for Ben's struggle with sea-sickness, he would have been aboard the ill-fated vessel. Believing that the target was actually him rather than Judge Sterns, Matlock, along with Cliff and Jerri, delves into Ben's past cases to uncover the truth. Meanwhile, Matlock defends a man accused of the crime, a former lawyer who had been disbarred five years prior for jury tampering.
