Today we're going to take a brief look a the 1933 Kansas City Massacre at Union Station. There is so much to learn by studying criminals and law enforcement from over 90 years ago, and this particular story is a doozy. It touches on half a dozen cities and towns in as many states, involving a couple dozen people, some with personal or criminal connections, and some with no connection at all, who conspire to commit a crime, resulting in a bloody shootout, that fundamentally shapes the modern FBI.
