    Thank you so much but who was this Louy K or Kassoff character supposed to be in real life because I can´t find him. The organization part sounds like Arnold Rothstein tho the similarities end there. If anybody knows, please tell us. It´s driving me crazy.

      @@charlynegezze8536 what I can tell you is that most of the stories are all mixed though all fact based. They all have little pieces of each on different episodes, remember that at that time persons and places had to be fictionized either to protect those that were still living or because of copy rights that the show wasn't authorized to use. Nonetheless the stories are true, but not played the way it happened yet they give you a little peek broken down on different episodes. I hope I explained it right , if not 😔 , well at least I tried.

Also Michael, there is a series called "Deadline" 1958 about true stories about famous and not so famous crimes, with different newspaper reporters from cities all over America during the 1950s. This series was lost for more than 60 years until someone checked his grandfather's garage upon his death and found the whole film cans of the entire series, as soon as in came out in 2019
