Eliot Ness was one of the most renowned Federal Agents in the history of U.S. law enforcement. Along with his small team, The Untouchables he destroyed organized crime in Chicago and brought down gangster Al Capone. He displayed great aptitude, competence, honesty, integrity, and reliability throughout his Federal law enforcement career. He not only crushed the illegal multi-million-dollar breweries run by Capone but also established law and order in the crime-ridden cities of Cincinnati and Cleveland.

He improved the deplorable traffic control situation in Cleveland and drastically reduced the number of deaths caused by road accidents. He also took care of rising corruption in public institutions. After fighting organized crime as a federal agent for a decade, he became Cleveland’s Public Safety Director, successfully eradicating corruption among policemen and modernizing the fire department. In his later life, his professional reputation was tarnished by his reckless behaviour and he had to do odd jobs to earn his living.

At the time of his death, his heroic contribution was almost forgotten and he was more or less bankrupt. He co-authored the popular autobiography, The Untouchableswhich was released shortly after his death and re-established his fame as amorally upright crime investigator.
