In this episode, Tom and Dan interview Claire White, the Director of Education at the Mob Museum, about the St. Valentine's Day Massacre in Chicago in 1929. They discuss the rise of organized crime during Prohibition, Al Capone's role in the Chicago underworld, and the tensions between rival gangs. They delve into the planning and execution of the massacre, as well as the subsequent investigation. The episode provides insights into the criminal operations and power dynamics of the time. The St. Valentine's Day Massacre investigation led to theories and finger-pointing between Al Capone and Bugs Moran. Capone and Moran both pointed the finger at each other, but no one was ever arrested for the crime. Capone and Moran went into hiding, with Capone staying in Florida and Moran leaving Chicago. The investigation of the massacre led to increased pressure on Capone and organized crime, with President Hoover urging law enforcement agencies to take down mobsters. The Atlantic City Conference was held to discuss truces and plans for Capone. Fred Burke, a potential accomplice, was arrested for another crime, but the investigation into the massacre ended without clear convictions. Holding onto the weapons used in the massacre was seen as sloppy gangster work, as it could have been incriminating evidence. Disposing of weapons was a common practice in organized crime to avoid being connected to crimes. The story of the St. Valentine's Day Massacre and organized crime history are important parts of American history. The Mob Museum in Las Vegas showcases artifacts and evidence related to the massacre and other mob-related events.
