Part 3 of 3 - The Death of John Dillinger

During the 1930s Depression, America made heroes of outlaws who
took what they wanted at gunpoint. John Dillinger came to evoke
this Gangster Era and stirred mass emotion to a degree rarely seen
in this country. He operated with a group of men known as the
"Dillinger Gang", which was accused of robbing 24 banks and four
police stations, among other activities, including many escapes
from jail. Dillinger was killed by federal agents outside the
Biograph Theater on the night of July 22, 1934. Many people still
believe it wasn't him that was killed that night. Did Dillinger
pull off one last great escape? Learn more about your ad choices.
