"Heroes Live Forever"--the story of the two FBI Agents who took down "Baby Face" Nelson

In 1934, FBI Inspector Samuel P. Cowley was dispatched from headquarters to the mid-west to head up the Bureau’s anti-gangster effort. Soon after, legendary gangsters “Pretty Boy” Floyd and John Dillinger were killed by FBI Agents. And then, on November 27, 1934, Inspector Cowley and FBI Special Agent Herman Hollis got word of the whereabouts of another notorious criminal, “Baby Face” Nelson. They spotted him in his vehicle and a running gun battle took place. Special Agent Hollis was killed during the shootout and Inspector Cowley was mortally wounded. He would die the next day. But before going down, they shot “Baby Face” Nelson 17 times and he would soon die. Sam Cowley’s mission to end the reign of terror committed by some of our nation’s most ruthless gangsters was done.
