Episode description

George Remus was a pretty famous criminal defense in Chicago. He soon began defending bootleggers. Seeing their stacks of cash they were paid their fines with, Remus saw opportunity. Soon he would corner the market and become arguably the biggest bootlegger during American prohibition. But his story is much crazier than just that. Tune in folks and listen to a story straight from the Roaring Twenties.
