Murder Incorporated was a secretive enforcement arm of the National Crime Syndicate in the 1930s and 1940s, established to carry out assassinations and enforce the Syndicate's control over organized crime across the United States. Led by figures like Louis "Lepke" Buchalter and Albert Anastasia, the organization comprised professional hitmen such as Abe "Kid Twist" Reles and Harry "Pittsburgh Phil" Strauss. Responsible for hundreds of murders, they used brutal and varied methods to eliminate rivals, informants, and those who defied the Syndicate's authority. Law enforcement efforts, spearheaded by prosecutors like Thomas E. Dewey, intensified as public outcry grew. Reles eventually became an informant, providing critical testimony that led to the conviction and execution of key members, including Buchalter. The dismantling of Murder Incorporated marked a significant turning point in the fight against organized crime, and recent discoveries have shed additional light on their extensive operations and enduring impact on law enforcement tactics.
