Darryl D. Turner

Radio DJ on station WDOT from the two-part "Murder on the Record" story of comic book Kerry Drake Detective Cases, issues #21 (August 1950) and #22 (October 1950).

The "D." stands for "Downbeat;" Turner is also known by his initials, D.D.T..

Turns out he's the mastermind behind a gang of safecrackers. He cases his sponsors' stores under the pretext of creating their radio ads, and uses scientific equipment in the heist: walkie-talkies to coordinate, night-vision goggles, and a hypersensitive microphone to hear the safe tumblers. He also uses wire recordings of his shows to play on air to give himself an alibi.
