    Another great video, Jeff!! The newspaper story about the reclusive widow who died in poverty but had an estate worth $240,000 really caught my attention. That would be over $5,000,000.

    Dillinger’s right hand man was Homer Van Meter. According to my mother, she was a 2nd cousin of Van Meter. She met him once, and rode in her uncle’s car to Chicago to pick him up and bring him to Ft. Wayne. At the time, she had no idea he was wanted by the FBI, and knew nothing about his connection to Dillinger. I was never able to confirm any of this, but my mom told me that story, then never mentioned it again. Van Meter is buried at Lindenwood Cemetery in Ft. Wayne.

    For some reason, I assumed JD was a lot older than he was when he was 'active' (born in 1903).
    I frequently drive north on Lexington home to avoid the freeway traffic, and seeing that old apartment and recalling its history always gives me a smile.
    Great video.

    • @jbenziggy

      Dillinger certainly looked a lot older than he really was. I think that’s true of many folks back then. I look at my parent’s yearbook and think to myself, these teenagers look 25 years old! lol
      Glad you appreciate the history up there in Minnesota! Such a lovely state!

    My grandfather saw Dillinger rob a bank in Sioux Falls, SD. He was walking near the bank and saw them pull and go. Grandpa went across the street and waited to see what would happen... they robbed the bank and made a successful getaway.

    my uncle's uncle was Martin Zarkovich, East Chicago police sergeant. He allegedly assassinated Dillinger, but it was actually a look-alike Jimmy Lawrence. Zarkovich gave Dillinger the gun at Crown Point jail. Zarkovich ended up being chef of police. My grandfather was friends with Dillinger and his gang hung out in his store in East Chicago. check out the book the Dillinger Dossier by Jay Robert Nash

    Enjoyable episode! How nice you could get into the apartment building! A long time ago I saw the 1973 movie Dillinger. It starred Warren Oates and Michelle Phillips. Michelle was one of 4 singers in the 1960’s folk-rock band The Mamas and the Papas (California Dreaming, Monday Monday). After the group disbanded she became an actress. The car you showed (or one like it) was used in the movie and in publicity photos. Thank you, Jeff, well done!

      No, totally different places. Wabaha is a town about 100 miles downriver from St Paul. Wabasha cave is on St. Paul's west side. There's a Wabasha St. downtown St. Paul that also has lots of gangster history from the same era. All were named after the Lakota Chief Wabasha.

      @LordVikingLive 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      @@tomfields3682 Yes, they used several places. Like it says about the production: The cast and crew arrived in Minnesota in January 1993 but had to wait to start shooting until February 2 because of a lack of snowfall. Interior scenes were filmed at the Paisley Park Studios while St. Paul, Faribault, and Center City doubled as Wabasha. The ice-shanty scenes were shot on Lake Rebecca. Filming wrapped on June 23, 1993, after a delay of several months when Matthau contracted pneumonia while filming a fight scene with Lemmon in subzero temperatures.

    Another great video, thank you Jeff! As you eluded to, I have never understood how criminals of the era were so often able to shoot it out with arrest teams and escape. Nowadays attempting such would be simple suicide. I'm not entirely sure what has changed. Law enforcement back then certainly had guns, and I presume knew they should cover the back of buildings?

      I used a combination of GoPro 7 and my iPhone 14. My GoPro takes better shots in low light situations like in the hallway so that’s what I used in inside the building. With my iPhone, I shoot it 60 frames per second and 4K video.
