The Slaughter Syndicate
unnamed Policemen; Big George Gurnsey (villain, death); Scar Ralston (villain, death); The Slaughter Syndicate [Lew; Mike] (villains); Slim Daggett (villain); Mac (villain); Lefty (villain)
The Syndicate members spot a wealthy guy and decide to roll him for his dough. Once done, they discover they just killed an infamous gangster. Turning, they are confronted by another thug, enemy of Big George, named Ralston, who hires the syndicate members to work for him as executioners. He sends them out to kill Slim Daggett, who, in turn, offers Lew and Mike $5000 to rub out Ralston, which they do. The gang of Lew, Mike and Slim now plan to rub out crooks named Mac and Lefty, but are captured by the Police on a routine card game raid!
