You remember details very well. That Patrick McGoohan was arrested more than any other is an important, and relevant detail.
'Columbo' was a project, from inception, of McGoohans. Few had as much to do with it as he, none had more. It was McGoohan that brought Peter Falk in. I believe he directed some as well.
