On June 24, 1946 two shotgun blasts were fired by Outfit hitmen at James Ragen.Ragen was still alive and was rushed to the nearest hospital.He was in critical condition and remained alive until August 14, when he died under mysterious conditions. It was later reported that Ragen’s autopsy showed traces of mercury in his blood and abdomen indicating that someone had entered his room and poisoned him.

Also the infamous Abe Reles case.Rumours were that the cops who wached Reles were paid by the mob to throw him from the window of his hotel room.

In 1931,Anton Cermak was elected Chicago's 36th mayor, he wanted to take over the city and to destroy the Outfit with the help of rival gangs.Ted Newberry, a former associate of George "Bugs" Moran and Roger Touhy sided with Cermak against the Capone mob.One of Newberry's and Cermak’s obstacle was Frank Nitti so Cermak summoned two members of his special police squad to Nitti's office, Harry Miller and Henry Lang.They went to his office and Lang fired five shots into Frank Nitti but Nitti managed to survive.Later on February 15, 1933,Anton Cermak was shot to death while shaking hands with the President Franklin Roosevelt in Miami, Florida.Legend goes that the Chicago Outfit was behind the hit because of revenge but theres no real evidence.
