This is an anthology containing at least two crime stories. "Proof That Crime Never Pays!" follows the release of Jonah Bushel, who was interrogated by the FBI about a farmhouse in Paradise belonging to Machine Gun Kelly's wife, Katherine; the Kellys are ultimately captured and given life sentences for kidnapping Bushel. "Murder, Incorporated" depicts the schemes of Red Louey and Pretty Boy, two criminals who plan to kill an officer and use the electric chair as cover; their plot unravels when Pretty Boy is hit by a train, and a woman named Myra helps arrange their escape before they are ultimately apprehended by police. A third story features Sleazy Wilson attempting to win back his girlfriend Lazia by joining a poker game and later stealing from a socks gang, but his crimes catch up with him and he is arrested by police.
