"Public Enemy #1: The Baby-Faced Psychopath Who Made the FBI Bleed"

He stood barely 5'4" with the face of a choirboy, but Lester "Baby Face" Nelson was the most vicious killer of the Public Enemy era – a machine-gun wielding maniac who murdered more FBI agents than any criminal in history. This is the explosive story of how one pint-sized psychopath became America's most wanted man, turning the streets into battlegrounds and making J. Edgar Hoover's G-Men look like amateurs. From his early days robbing banks with a Tommy gun bigger than himself to his final apocalyptic shootout that left federal agents dead in the street, Nelson rewrote the rules of criminal warfare with pure, unhinged violence. We'll reveal how this baby-faced butcher's killing spree terrorized an entire nation, his shocking partnership with John Dillinger that turned bank robbery into mass murder, and the desperate FBI manhunt that became personal when agents started dying. Featuring never-before-released FBI files documenting his reign of terror, audio recordings of the radio broadcasts that tracked his killing spree in real-time, and testimonies from the few lawmen who survived encounters with America's most dangerous outlaw. This episode exposes how one man's psychotic rampage changed American law enforcement forever – because sometimes the smallest monsters cast the biggest shadows.
