Organized crime was born in the back of a fruit store in Marion. Before America saw headlines about the Capone Mob, the Purple Gang and Murder Inc., the specter of the Black Hand terrorized nearly every major city.Fears that the Mafia had reached our shores and infiltrated every Italian immigrant community kept police alert and citizens on edge.
