Kurt Calabrese, son of notorious Chicago Outfit hitman Frank "The Breeze" Calabrese Sr., breaks his silence about growing up under the shadow of one of Chicago's most feared mob enforcers. His story begins with a dramatic courtroom confrontation during the historic "Family Secrets" trial, where Kurt's victim impact statement provoked his father's menacing outburst, revealing the monster that had terrorized him throughout his childhood.Growing up in Elmwood Park, a Chicago suburb known as an enclave for Outfit members, Kurt lived a double life—neighbors saw his father as a friendly figure who handed out homemade wine, while behind closed doors, Kurt endured relentless abuse, living in constant fear of his father's return. Frank Sr. broke the traditional Outfit code by bringing his sons into "the life," forcing Kurt to collect "street tax" and teaching him disturbing techniques for violence. This first chapter of Kurt's story reveals the beginning of his journey from terrified son to someone who would ultimately help bring down one of Chicago's most notorious crime families.Binge the entire season of Killing Kurt—along with other gripping Entropy Media shows—completely ad-free by subscribing to Entropy Unlimited on Apple Podcasts.
