In 1934, during the Great Depression, the O'Malley gang executed a remarkable double bank robbery in Okemah, Oklahoma, taking advantage of the era's economic turmoil. The gang meticulously planned the heist, simultaneously robbing two national banks and escaping with $19,000 while leaving 15 bank employees bound and gagged.
