The Rockford Files: Sleight of Hand (1975)
Episode 15, Season 1
Plot used in a Simon & Simon episode

A variation of the same plot line was used in a Simon & Simon episode (Thin Air) that originally aired in Dec 1982.
The gender of the victim was changed, the surviving spouse is one of Rick's "old flames". It's also interesting to note that Gerald McRaney had a role in this Rockford file episode.
Both episodes were based on a story by Howard Browne - as noted in the list of 'writing credits'.
Anthony James plays one of his classic TV bad guy roles.
The continuation of the concept between the Rockford Files to Magnum PI to Simon & Simon quite interesting.
