Anyone remember Barreta

Used to watch it in the late 70's brilliant cop show!. Until today I thought it was pulled because he murdered someone.

Yes I remember it vaguely. To be honest I only remember it was one of the better cop shows at the time but can't remember much else about it.

Robert Blake was also in a film which had a shock ending where he was a motorcycle cop - can't remember the title (will check on IMDB when I get a minute) but it was a very good film.

Used to watch it as a kid, but the only thing that I remember about the show was his pet cockatoo.

The movie I was trying to remember was 'Electra Glide In Blue'.

He was on trial for the murder of his wife who was killed by gunshot while he was returning back to a restaurant to collect his gun in 2001.
May have been a stuntman who was the hitman, a very dubious wife he married.
