Episode 16: Seneca County (John Dillinger) Part 1
Welcome to episode 16 of Ohio 88 where we will be discussing one of the most notorious individuals from Seneca County, Ohio. For this episode, we will be discussing John Dillinger. As a quick summary; John Herbert Dillinger was born on June 22, 1903 and died on July 22, 1934. He was an American gangster of the Great Depression and led a group known as the “Dillinger Gang”. Known as public enemy number 1; Dillinger was accused of robbing 24 banks and 4 police stations. He was imprisoned a number of times and escaped on two different occasions. Although he had this reputation of being such an outlaw, he wasn’t a cold-blooded killer; as most would suspect. In fact, he was only charged with one homicide but was not convicted. This homicide, however, was that of a police officer in East Chicago, Indiana; during a shootout. When I came to this notorious individual on the list; I immediately thought of the ONE person whom I thought would do justice on this episode; Justin Rimmel. So, I enlisted his help and this is Part 1 of 3 of Ohio 88’s coverage of Mr. John Dillinger. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Thank you for your wealth of knowledge on Dillinger, Justin!
