Vincent "Mad Dog" Coll, a brutal gangster operating in 1931 New York, terrorizes rival mobsters and innocent civilians alike, including bombing a social club where children are playing. His ruthlessness and violent methods earn him a $50,000 bounty on his head, leading his own men to turn against him in hopes of claiming the reward. Coll is ultimately gunned down by his former associates, demonstrating that even the most dangerous criminals cannot escape the consequences of their actions.

Vincent "Mad Dog" Coll earns his savage nickname through a relentless campaign of murder and extortion, determined to claw his way to the top of the underworld despite the dangerous enemies he makes along the way. As Coll's ambitions grow bolder—from orchestrating gang assassinations to planning high-stakes kidnappings—he finds himself caught between his monstrous ego and the formidable power of established crime bosses like Dutch Schultz, each watching and waiting for the moment to strike. This true crime story traces the rise of a killer whose arrogance may prove as lethal as his gun.

The Hatchet Man
7 pp · Crime

Willie Muller is a simple-minded man whose accidental talent for violence catches the attention of two criminals in Jersey City, who recruit him with promises of easy money—but when jobs go wrong and the abuse begins, Willie's childlike patience reaches a breaking point. Caught between the cops closing in and the men who've exploited him turning cruel, Willie becomes the very thing his handlers always wanted: dangerous. This is the true story of how a "sweet-natured guy" became a killer, and the price paid by everyone around him.
