À propos de ce contenu audio

 Behind the idyllic façade of Freeport, a darker reality took root in the 1960s, as the island's burgeoning casino industry became entwined with the tentacles of American organised crime. This episode explores how figures like Meyer Lansky, notorious for their underworld connections, infiltrated the casinos of Freeport, exploiting a web of political corruption and lax regulation to establish a lucrative and shadowy empire. The story unfolds against the backdrop of a rapidly transforming Bahamas, as the white-dominated rule of the "Bay Street Boys" gave way to the first Black-led government. But did this political shift alter the course of Freeport's Faustian bargain?
