New York's Worst Nightmare! Is it possible for one man and a few loyal allies to take down a gang of nearly 200 criminals? This is the story of Central New York’s first and possibly most brutal crime family. In the 1800s, the Loomis Gang rose to infamy, led by the cunning Wash Loomis and his manipulative mother, Rhoda Loomis. Using intimidation, bribery, and violence, they terrorized the region—stealing livestock, evading prosecution, and burning down courthouses to erase their crimes. From their hidden base in Nine Mile Swamp, they operated with impunity, believing themselves untouchable. But their reign of terror would not last forever. Enter James Filkins, a fearless blacksmith-turned-constable who refused to back down. As the only man willing to challenge the Loomis Gang, he relentlessly pursued them, enduring assassination attempts and legal battles. When law enforcement failed, the community took justice into their own hands—leading to the violent downfall of Wash Loomis and the gang’s ultimate destruction. This is the incredible true story of crime, corruption, and frontier justice—where a fearless blacksmith and a town pushed to its limits fought back against the most feared criminals of their time.
