Criminal Records Podcast

Roy Olmstead, the Gentleman Bootlegger


Listen Later

When Washington State went dry, one baby-faced cop decided to start moonlighting as a bootlegger. His alcohol empire involved crooked mayors, bootlegging conventions, airplane engines strapped to boats, and a conspiracy theory about secret messages for rum-runners hidden inside children's bedtime stories.

S.A. Chant generously stepped up to guest while Isaac's out sick this week. I highly recommend checking out their work!
