It was one of the ‘rumors’ about the St. Valentine’s Day Massacre of 1929 that the cops were in on it and were out for revenge for the North End Gang killing the son of a cop.................
Bobby C was a punk in junior high. Greaser. Was shooting spit wads in Mr I's chemistry class. Mr I was all business. He lifted Bobby up by the neck and literally kicked him out the door. Took him to the principal's office and whipped him so hard Bobby cursed and ran out.
Wasn't long after that, Bobby went to reform school for stealing a car.
Different times.
