Plot
Frank Morgan is the sheriff of Cochise County, Arizona, and his duties force him to go after people breaking the law in his home county. These include robbers, thugs, con artists, killers, and other lawbreakers. The series is based on Westerns, though with a contemporary twist as in the neo-Western sub-genre. Morgan drives a Chrysler station wagon, rarely fights personally, and uses radios and fingerprints to aid in his investigations.
