"Negative Reaction". Although there was
circumstantial evidence-particularly the 10 photos of Alvin Deschler from San Quentin Prison, there was no direct link between Galesko and Deschler, because Galesko's lawyer could have used the excuse that Galesko told Columbo, i.e. that Deschler remembered Galesko from his visit to the prison and decided to make him his next victim.

The Case of Immunity

Sallah was in his rooms, everybody says he was there but nobody in fact didn't see him.A simple, but good alibi.

Most crucial game: Paul Hanlon's defense could very easily argue that his clock hadn't been wound and therefore wasn't chiming. I doubt very much a jury would convict on evidence that wasn't there as opposed to evidence that was.
