Résumé
The outlaw bandit depression era bank robber Baby Face Nelson was born to Belgian immigrant parents in Chicago, Illinois, on Dec. 6, 1908. This young man, who was frequently sent to the Illinois State School for Boys in St. Charles, Illinois, after being caught either stealing or riding in stolen vehicles, became an armed robber in 1930 when he forced his way into the brick Lake Shore Drive mansion of magazine editor Charles M.
Richter with a group of burglars and stole $25, 000 in jewelry. Baby Face Nelson-who escaped from Joliet Correctional Center, in Joliet, Illinois, during a transfer on February 17, 1932, fled to Reno, Nevada, to stay with Reno gambling crime Boss William Graham, and with his organized crime connections and history of working as a labor racketeer for Chicago Outfit crime boss Al Capone, found work as a bootlegger for Sausalito, California, mob crime boss Giuseppe Joe Parente.
In Sausalito, Baby Face Nelson became acquainted with his future partner in bank robbing-the San Francisco born Depression era criminal John Paul Chase, who would later accompany Baby Face Nelson on a bank robbery in Brainerd, Minnesota in October 1933. Read in this informative book how Baby Face Nelson became jealous of the bank robbing exploits and high speed getaways of Midwest, Mooresville, Indiana, criminal John Dillinger, which caused Baby Face Nelson, whose real name was Lester Gillis, to leave his job as a Sausalito California saloon slugger for Giuseppe Joe Parente and head east with John Paul Chase and his wife Helen Gillis to Long Beach, Indiana, to confront Dillinger's top bank robbery partner Homer Van Meter at a hotel bar in this town to ask Van Meter if he could join Dillinger's bank robbery gang.
After Dillinger allowed Baby Face Nelson into his bank robbery crew, it became apparent to Dillinger that Baby Face Nelson did not value human life and laughed when he fired at his victims with a Thompson sub-machine gun, which creeped out Dillinger, who did not believe in shooting at people during robberies unless it became necessary to escape. Find out in this book about the Battle of Barrington, where Baby Face Nelson died on Nov.
27, 1934 after a fierce a gunfight with two Bureau of Investigation Special Agents-Samuel P. Cowley and Herman Hollis. The Bureau of Investigation (BOI) Special Agents, both of whom died in this gun battle with Baby Face Nelson in the Chicago, Illinois, suburb of Barrington, managed to fatally wound Baby Face Nelson in this armed conflict before succumbing to their own gunshot wounds. Baby Face Nelson died later that evening at a safe house on Walnut Street in the Cook County, Illinois, village of Wilmette at 7:35 p.m.
