Detroit’s La Cosa Nostra faction is the most successful crime family in American history.  Detroit Mob Confidential covers an entire century of mafia activity, from bootlegging to murder, from gambling to Jimmy Hoffa.  Packed with interviews from current and former FBI agents, federal prosecutors, and mob associates, as well as hundreds of never before seen photos straight from the FBI files and the private family collection of Don Joe Zerilli, this film will astound you.
