HOLLYWOOD (WWJ) – Ruthless gang lord Mickey Cohen was not to be denied. At least he thought. Cohen wanted to rule Los Angeles, and with police, local government officials and judges in his pocket, he had created a massive criminal enterprise.
MICKEY COHEN
You heard of Manifest Destiny? That's when
you take what you can, when you can…
And I'm gonna take it all…and not just
because I can, but because this is my destiny.
Los Angeles is my destiny.
But, LAPD Sgt. John O'Mara has other ideas. When he returns from World War II, O'Mara finds that Cohen has taken over the city, and has corrupted it with gambling, prostitution and drugs. To right the wrongs, he begins to take things into his own hands, but it's when he's recruited by Police Chief William "Whiskey Bill" Parker, that the tide begins to turn.
Gangster Squad is based on the book by the same name, written by Paul Lieberman, a former Los Angeles Times writer/editor and the winner of dozens of journalism awards. The book chronicles the story of the real-life Gangster Squad, who – according to Lieberman, were "eight men who met covertly on street corners and slept with Tommy guns under their beds while combating what city fathers saw as an 'invasion of undesirables'."
