Digging Up Dillinger

The gang talks to the Director and Founding Director of Indiana K9 Search and Recovery, the team that helped us search the Dillinger family property.

This week's episode, Sherry McCollum joins the gang to talk about the resent K9 search on the old family farm property in Moorsville Indiana. 

The gang starts the episode discussing the famous Johnny Depp and his involvment with the Thompsons. Could getting a hold of the actor pay off in the end for the new age Dillinger Crew? 

The Gang revists the Mapp discussion after Joe pulls it out the safety deposit box. Specifically we examine the timeline and cities associated with the Dillinger gang to see if there are any connections to the information left behind. 

Nephew of John Dillinger joins us on the podcast for another round. We hit him with some viewer questions and discuss some of the artifacts hidden in Mike's garage. 

The closest living relative of John Dillinger, Mike Thompson sits down with the gang to talk about the podcaat!  A huge wealth of knowledge, Mike brings us stories and facts we have been dying for! 

Auther Ron Offen, co-author of the book 'Dillinger: Dead or Alive' had some serious writer credits. Much of his research and papers are stored in one place, The University of Chicago Library. Joe takes a trip to the college to dive into what they have in the special research section. The Gang dicusses the findings and if it means anything to the investigation. 

The Gang takes on some new research. Our own Todd Hiles found a news article buried in the FBI files showcasing what Melivn Pervis says happend to Dillinger. The interesting part is, all of it is on the record, but does that make it true? We dive deep on this episode of Digging Up Dillinger. 

Imagine one day your digging on the family farm, with a film crew filming, and all of a sudden you put your shovel in the ground and 'Crack'! A ball jar is under the ground and a piece of american history is sitting right at your feet. That is exactly what happened at the Dillinger family farm and to our own Stewart Fillmore. This episode we talk about the day that happened and what the map means in our opinion. 

 Throughout this case, Hollywood has tried to help tell the story of these two mysteries. Paul Lima was the producer at the forefront of the first real attempt at this case being on TV. He joins the gang for an interview to talk about the project he was a part of.
