Sometimes called the Alcatraz of the East, Rikers lsland in New York City sits in the East River between northern Queens County and the Bronx. lt is a place where no one would ever want to be incarcerated. In this instance a well known mobster, Joey "Chop Shop" Terelli, was being held there. A short distance away, his trial for the brutal bloody murder of several people in a warehouse in Queens, was being held. His crime was being compared to the Saint Valentine's Day Massacre of 1929. His attorney, Ed Marone, was doing his best in court for Terelli but the mob was not satisfied with how things could turn out. They insisted that the best chance to make him a free man again would be to arrange for an escape from Rikers lsland before the conclusion of a trial. To attempt this task the mob gave Marone no choice but to assemble a group of societal misfits to stage a jailbreak and with the backdrop of a pandemic and major tragic events in Ed Marone's personal lite the impossible was to be attempted.
