Breaking bad is never good
Twenty-five year old Arthur Siegelman was a new comer to the New York City underworld
who, after a short stay, vanished and was never heard from again.
Siegelman had no former training in crime in fact he was a life guard
who, at the end of beach season, decided to break into bootlegging as a
way to support his widowed mother and six siblings. Needless to say the
neophyte gangster did not last long where the gun and knife rule. What
he did to seal his fate is unknown but he disappeared on this day in
1932 and his body was never found.

He should have started with smaller crimes and worked his way up. This is what happens when you skip the apprenticeship process.
Hopefully others learned from his mistake.
