<p><strong>Mollie Halpern:</strong> It’s a historical moment that brings us back 80 years—the end of the manhunt for America’s so-called Public Enemy Number One, John Dillinger. I’m Mollie Halpern of the FBI and this is Gotcha, the Bureau’s closed case of the week.</p>
<p>Dillinger and his gang made headlines in the Gangster Era for their murders, bank robberies, and other crimes. One fateful night in 1934, agents gunned down Dillinger outside of a Chicago movie theater as the outlaw reached for his gun.</p>
<p>With Dillinger dead, a new gang of bad guys looking to make a name for themselves came onto the scene in October of the next year. FBI Historian John Fox…</p>
<p><strong>John Fox:</strong> One urban legend has it that they said, “We&#8217;re going to make the Dillinger gang look like pikers.”</p>
<p><strong>Halpern:</strong> Alfred Brady, James Dalhover, and Clarence Shaffer formed the Brady gang.</p>
<p><strong>Fox:</strong> Their goal was to enrich themselves. They wanted money to live an easy life and didn&#8217;t want to work at it and were happy to rob whoever they could.</p>
<p><strong>Halpern:</strong> Did the Brady gang give Dillinger’s gang a run for their stolen money? On the next Gotcha, hear more from FBI Historian John Fox.</p>
