H2H. 3. 139. John Dillinger. Public Enemy Number One.

Between 1933 and 1934, a man and his gangs robbed their way thru twenty-four banks and four police stations across the midwest. He was arrested and put in jail and prison several times. He escaped twice. He was charged, but not convicted of a murder, and he was adored by the public for his personality and charm. When his crime spree came to an end, he’d changed the landscape of the Bureau of investigation—soon to be the FBI—forever. He’d stolen over seven million dollars in today’s money, but that was nothing compared to what the FBI spent trying to catch him. In the end, he was shot and killed on the streets of Chicago—or was he? This is the story of famed gangster, John Dillinger. Public Enemy Number One.
