Show Notes
In 1963, 24th ward alderman Ben Lewis was executed--bullet to the back of his head--one late night in his West Side ward office. The case remains unsolved. Propublica reporter Mick Dumke has spent the better part of the last year digging into the crime. His expose sheds light on ties between the Mob & the Machine in Chicago.
