    GOLD SHIELDS; EPISODE 57; AL CAPONE AND THE CHICAGO MOB WARS

    GOLD SHIELDS; EPISODE 57; AL CAPONE AND THE CHICAGO MOB WARS

    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.

    On this very special show, our two friends, and the hosts of the very popular podcast, The Suffering Podcast, Kevin Donaldson and Mike Failace join us on GOLD SHIELDS.  Both Kevin and Mike are retired Police Officers from New Jersey, but nothing could have prepared Dan and Tom for the stories we heard from both of these proud men about their separate traumatic events while serving their communities. The events are jaw dropping and emotional, and show everyone out there that Police Officers are human beings that go through traumatic events like everyone else.  I cannot say enough about the emotional rollercoaster this show was.  Dan and Tom, at times, were speechless and emotional, listening to what events contributed to both Kevin and Mike ending their careers in Law Enforcement, and what led to The Suffering Podcast.

    GOLD SHIELDS EPISODE 42; FBI BOMB TECHNICIAN BARRY BLACK THE OKLAHOMA CITY BOMBING

    GOLD SHIELDS EPISODE 42; FBI BOMB TECHNICIAN BARRY BLACK THE OKLAHOMA CITY BOMBING

    **AUDIO RELEASED, VIDEO COMING SOON**

    On April 19, 1995 in Oklahoma City,  a rental truck pulled up to the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building, and the driver Timothy McVeigh exited the truck and walked away. Moments later, an enormous explosion tore the Murrah building in half killing 168 people, including 19 children. The city was rocked by the explosion, and the sadness of those killed was felt around the world. The hunt for the terrorist or terrorists was underway with the full force of the FBI and local Law Enforcement with everyone focussed on capturing those involved in the largest, and deadliest Domestic Terrorist act in history.

    One of those Special Agents on that mission is this week's guest on GOLD SHIELDS, Retired Special Agent and Bomb Technician BARRY BLACK. This episode will take you from the very beginnings of the investigation that began right after the explosion, to the capture of Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nicholas. Barry was a leading reason for the success of this case when key pieces of evidence were recovered and then placed into a timeline with other information that led to the identity of the two Domestic Terrorists.  This is a real life race to find two very dangerous individuals.  Join us as Barry takes us on this ride as he explains this case, as only someone directly involved can do.

    Don’t miss this incredible show about a dark day in Oklahoma City's history, and the dedication of the investigators that had one thing in mind, find the killers and bring them to justice!
