John Dillinger from a small Indiana farm became one of America's most notorious bank robbers. Not inherently violent, prison turned him into a big-time criminal.

Born in Sicily, Charles Luciano immigrated to the U.S. In corrupt New York City, he united figures like Meyer Lansky and Ben 'Bugsy' Siegel to eliminate old-world mob bosses and formed the first crime syndicate, making the Mafia stronger than ever.

Known for violence, Schultz aimed to assassinate Dewey but ultimately met his own demise.
