Assassination Of The Gambler
The Corruption Of Lieutenant Charles Becker.
Jump to Ad-Free Safe House Edition
Episode 116 is a story about police corruption in New York’s Tenderloin District at the turn of the last century. The Tenderloin District around Broadway was so named by the police because there was a lot of graft to be made and they were able to stop eating chuck steak and started eating tenderloin. Maybe that helped dull the foul taste of corruption in their mouths. The trouble starts when gambling house operator Herman Rosenthal gets double crossed by his business partner, Charles Becker, who happens to also be a police lieutenant. Rosenthal is so upset, he decides to name names in front of a grand jury. Yeah. That’s not going to end well.
