About this episode
In 1930s New York, four desperate men hatched the perfect murder plot — or so they thought. Tony Marino, Joseph Murphy, Francis Pasqua, and Tony Bastone targeted a homeless man named Mike Malloy, hoping to kill him for insurance money. But Malloy wouldn't die. Poisoned drinks, antifreeze, carpet tacks, freezing nights, even a hit-and-run — he survived it all. This is the bizarre true crime story of how one man accidentally became a legend, and how four would-be killers were ultimately outwitted by the most unlikely survivor in true crime history.
