Visit the old New Castle County Workhouse, scene of a break-in by a lynch mob and the daring escape of a notorious murderer. A police chief trying to keep his corrupt practices under wraps, agents raiding political headquarters and a detective murdered on the street were all part of city life in the early twentieth century. In later years, stories of a professional killer pleading self-defense, hiding his connections to a mobbed-up Teamsters boss, and runaway lovers caught up in an international extortion scheme show the city's darker side. Local historian Kevin McGonegal chronicles tales of Wilmington's infamous past.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51972126376224,"sku":"NEW1467148563","price":25.54,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/814QOZC1oGL.jpg?v=1783793418","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/wicked-wilmington-delaware-1467148563","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
