Tina and Hillary cover former Italian Prime Minister Aldo Moro and the assassination attempt of Adolf Hitler.
Aldo Moro was one of Italy’s longest serving Prime Ministers who enacted social and economic reforms. BUT when he is kidnapped, attempts to free him fail.
In 1944, Adolf Hitler was at the height of his political power and instilled fear in his subordinates. BUT despite that, members of his inner circle plan to assassinate him for the greater good.
