On February 14th, 1929, seven men were lined up against a brick wall inside a Chicago garage and executed in broad daylight.

No arrests.
No convictions.
No justice.

In this episode of Peculiar Tales, we dive into the chilling story of the St. Valentine’s Day Massacre one of the most infamous crimes of the Prohibition era. Fuelled by gang rivalry, carried out by men disguised as police officers, and soaked in the violence of 1920s Chicago, this brutal act shocked the nation and changed how America viewed organized crime forever.

At the centre of it all: Al Capone, Bugs Moran, and a city ruled by bootlegging, corruption, and fear.

Dark. Bold. Unforgettable.

This is the crime that made the country stop and look.
