UnderGround Zero: 9/11 & The Mob | Starring Michael Imperioli & Steve Schirripa

What it is about

Michael Imperioli and Steve Schirripa star in the untold true story of how the New York Mafia exploited the aftermath of 9/11. Nearly 3,000 families lost loved ones that day, and a shocked world mourned alongside them. But for Five Families—the New York Mafia—the day meant something very different. While the world saw an unspeakable tragedy, they saw an opening: the business opportunity of a lifetime. They might have succeeded were it not for one dedicated and courageous cop. Because of him, many of the men involved were convicted and imprisoned. UnderGround Zero: 9/11 & The Mob is the shocking true story born in the immediate aftermath of 9/11—one that has never been told. Names of the guilty have been changed to protect the innocent. A production of Thoroughbred Studios, Goldhawk Productions, and iHeartPodcasts, created & written by Stephen Kronish and starring Michael Imperioli, Steve Schirripa, Ray Abruzzo & Arthur J. Nascarella.
