Escape-proof jails and notorious gangsters rarely go in the same sentence, but John Dillinger shattered expectations with his legendary breakout from Crown Point Jail. Was his gun real or a wooden decoy? As we unravel this thrilling escapade, we uncover the audacity that turned Dillinger into a folk hero and the blunders that embarrassed law enforcement. Explore the fascination that gripped 1930s America, fueled by media glorification and a public enthralled by the exploits of Public Enemy Number One.
Experience the chaos and calamity that marked Dillinger's relentless pursuit by authorities. With outdated technology and poor communication, the officers found themselves outmatched in a cat-and-mouse game with Dillinger.

Listen as we navigate the unpredictable twists of early 20th-century crime-fighting, where the firepower of criminals often dwarfed that of the police.
