Big Daddy Bad,supp Boss?! I been subbed since the channel kicked off and I am stoked that I found your channel as it is a unique take on US OC times passed. Thank you sir.

[@afewbadmen.]

Great timing boss I’ve just woken up for work so I get to enjoy my breakfast while watching another AFBM video 🎉

[@MTM216]

Thanks Boss! I love this sound track! ❤ It is really good 💯

[@ilovetrump3209]

This proves the old Biblical saying: Live by the sword, You will die by the sword and The Shapiro Brothers all did in the end. The Mob life back then is interesting to me on a historical level only but nearly All from the top down end up the same way to this very way, in jail or dead and most by the hand of a "Friend" or other Associate who has their eye on your spot. Easy money is a fantasy that never ends up well because in the end it all ends and usually very badly as in this story. Thank You for your interesting and educational video.

Hey Boss, greetings from Holland. Keep them stories coming!

I love how you find the history that no one else seems to find about organized crime, well done once again.

This murder Inc, frankly, got what was coming to them afterwards with the canary singing! what kind of demons cause folks to decimate a whole family?

[@altagraciaadames3483]

Ha ha funny thought . Go to how Jayz gave Irv Gotti his name. He said that Irving didnt sound gangster enough, hence Gotti. Well Irving Shapiro might disagree with that. Dude was a Bantam fighter. Thats super light, but guess what, thats super fast. Power thrills but speed kills.

Boss please never change da background music cause it keeps da soldiers in line so we can kick da money back up to you

[@afewbadmen.]

It’s just a problem with copyright if the music is to loud they strike it and I have to redo it takes a couple hours sometimes. I had re upload this one .

[@ahnraemenkhera7451]

@afewbadmen. I like the old Ellington “Mooch,” but there are other period (20s-40s) tunes, too, in the public domain now. Just a suggestion, Boss. No harmful intent. Keep the research top-shelf & who’s gonna care? They’ve all got to come to you for the hard data anyways. Nobody’s got the Ambergs AND Shapiros on the same block. Nobody. Plus Terranova & Anastasia? Nobody. The channel’s a goldmine, so far, & I only found it 3-4 days ago. Excuse my late confession, pls.

Mike Tyson is Infatuated with all The Brownsville Boys .....😼™️🥤👍🏻👊🏻

[@davidemelia6296]

According to Rich Cohen giving an account of Herb Cohen giving an account of what Larry King said. Not exactly reliable in itself, as much as I like 'Tough Jews' (the original source for that claim of yours). I mean, the claim is made at the same time that Tyson spent an HOUR immediately after a fight talking about the Brownsville Boys with King ... is that credible?

Whoever Pep was he was super active 😂

[@afewbadmen.]

Pep is Pittsburgh Phil Strauss

Supposedly by many official accounts, the dude by himself had 400 hundred poor souls under his belt,

[@altagraciaadames3483]

@watsdaplayy2375" Murder is alright, as long as you don't get caught "Phil Pittsburgh Phil Strauss yeah trust, I m not making that up, several accounts I ve read. Dude was from Brooklyn but Why Do you think they called him Pittsburgh Phil?! Because he would go to Pittsburgh Philly LA St Louis, wherever to do the syndicates bidding. And the interting part, alot of times, he hardly used a gun, just anything he could find handy fire extinguisher in a dark movie theater, a rock 🪨 whatever. Him and Roy Demeo really went over the top.

Great job Boss. Would love to find out more about what happened to Midnight Rose and Evelyn Middleman. Pep's " Kiss of Death Girl". And what happened to them after the trials ended. 👍
