The Westies: inside New York's Irish mob

Trama

Anche tra i Mob, i Westies erano temuti. In una partnership tra due teppisti sadici - James Coonan e Mickey Featherstone - la banda ha dominato la fetta decadente del West Side di New York City conosciuta come Hell's Kitchen negli anni '70 e '80. Eccellendo in estorsioni, numeri in esecuzione, prestiti e spaccio di droga, sono diventati la banda più famosa nella storia della criminalità organizzata.
