How the Mob Ambushed Police to Free a Prisoner in Broad Daylight

Описание: In 1933, one of the most shocking crimes in American history unfolded in broad daylight outside Kansas City’s Union Station. What was supposed to be a routine prisoner transfer turned into a brutal ambush that left four law enforcement officers dead and shattered the nation’s sense of safety. This is the real story of the Union Station Massacre — the moment when the mob, corrupt politics, and federal law enforcement violently collided.
In this in-depth documentary, we break down:
🔹 The criminal life of Frank “Jelly” Nash
🔹 The rise of Kansas City’s corruption machine under Tom Pendergast
🔹 The mobsters, gunmen, and underworld factions suspected of planning the attack
🔹 How the massacre changed the FBI forever
🔹 Why historians still debate who actually fired the shots
🔹 The long-term fallout that reshaped the future of organized crime in Kansas City
Using verified history, eyewitness accounts, FBI files, and rare archival sources, this episode examines what really happened that morning — and why the case remains controversial nearly a century later.
