I have removed a statement from the synopsis which stated that the character of Elliot Carson had been imprisoned for the murder of Rodney & Norman Harrington's father. This statement was incorrect. Rodney & Norman's father was Leslie Harrington, who was part of the ongoing storyline in the early years of the show. My memory is somewhat fuzzy at this point, but I'm thinking that Elliot had been imprisoned for the murder of his first wife Elizabeth Carson. Does anyone else remember this?
Yes, he was sentenced for 18 years of jail for the murder of his wife Elizabeth Hanley (daughter of Calvin Hanley en sister of teacher Paul Hanley) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Moviefan (talk • contribs) 22:08, 3 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
reread this and tell who "her" refers to, also what is the name of Gus' son?
"Gus Chernak (Bruce Gordon, 1965–1966, episodes 111–177)Alcoholic father of Gus and Stella who makes her daughter perjure herself"
