In "The Investigation" Shaun Cassidy plays the accused Craig Gentry. Shaun
is David Cassidy's (a.k.a Keith Partridge of The Partridge Family.) younger
brother.
Shaun is also well known for his roll in
the "Hardy Boys & Nancy Drew Mystery Series from the 70s. Shaun and his
brother played by Parker Stevenson sure knew how to crack a good mystery
case... Kind of ironic he should make an appearence on "Matlock"!
Remember Shaun also had a big Pop/Rock Music hit with "DA DO
RON RON" in the 70s, making him the prime target of several teen magazines
including Teenbeat, Tigerbeat, 16 Magazine and Hit Parader, just to name
a few. He was a 70's teenage girl's dream hunk for a while... GO SHAUN!
