Charlie Wilhelm

Crime & Redemption: the story of mobster-turned-informant Charlie Wilhelm

At one time in his life, Charlie Wilhelm was a loan shark, a drug dealer, and a bookmaker.  He raked in ten thousand dollars a week, cash.  But when he was ordered to murder two friends, he took himself (and all of his information) to the FBI.  Wilhelm turned informant, wearing a wire and later testifying against his former partners in crime, putting them behind bars for years to come.

 We meet Charlie Wilhelm, and we hear his reflections on crime, loyalty, and redemption this week on The Signal.
