A real-life gangster plays himself in a betrayal so messy it practically needed its own crime scene cleanup.
Larry Malone sets up his brother Dave to get rid of Murphy, a rival gang leader, and then informs on Dave to have him convicted of murder. In one simple act of double-dealing he, consequently, removes both his main rivals and clears the way for expansive future plans for his crime family.
