Easy Eddie's Hostile Takeover


Listen Later

Take a trip back to the '30s and meet the lawyer-turned mobster who took down one of the biggest criminals of all time. 

Show Notes:

From a grocery store apartment to the pinnacle of Al Capone's criminal empire, Easy Eddie O'Hare's story is one of ruthless ambition, betrayal, and ultimately, revenge. This episode explores how a St. Louis lawyer with dreams of wealth became the man who brought down America's most notorious gangster—not for justice, but for power.

Easy Eddie O'Hare wasn't brought down by conscience or federal pressure—he was eliminated because he succeeded in his ultimate goal: hostile takeover of a criminal empire. His story reveals that in the underworld, partnership is just another word for rivalry in waiting.
