Although the most famous paths begin for all in a Big Apple destabilized by a debt of thirteen billion dollars and a high crime rate that coincides with the arrival of President Ronald Reagan, their paths will trace very different paths. All five reached high levels of success and power throughout the eighties, until what was known as “Black Monday”, when markets crashed around the world and allegations of foul play began.
The documentary series covers all these milestones and the crimes they had to face at the end of this stage: tax evasion, fraud, extortion, illegal gambling …
‘New York Empires’ will also be available in low demand service.
