Fingerprints Don't Lie is a 1951 American crime film directed by Sam Newfield and starring Richard Travis, Sheila Ryan and Margia Dean.

The film's sets were designed by the art director Harry Reif.

At the trial of the alleged killer of the city's mayor, fingerprint expert Jim Stover gives evidence that seems likely to seal his conviction and likely execution.

Stover strongly believes that "fingerprints don't lie" but is given cause to doubt this after a conversation.

With the assistance of the dead mayor's daughter Carolyn he starts his own investigation to see if the accused is being framed.
