The Mob Boss Who Tried to Buy a State: Charles Binaggio & The Kansas City Mafia
In the 1930s and 40s, the Kansas City Mafia didn't just bribe politicians—they were the political machine. From controlling local elections to a daring courthouse bombing that wiped out federal evidence of voter fraud, the KC crime family operated with near-total immunity.
At the center of it all was Charles Binaggio, an ambitious mob boss and political kingmaker who attempted the ultimate power grab: buying a governor’s election to legalize statewide gambling and turn Missouri into an empire before Las Vegas even existed.
But when you make promises to the Chicago Outfit and the New York Commission that you can't keep, the price of failure is absolute. This is the incredible, obscure history of the rise and brutal fall of Charles Binaggio, the Pendergast political machine, and the early days of the Kansas City underworld.
