Emanuel "Mendy" Weiss was a henchman for Murder, Inc., a murder for hire organization that controlled the New York City garment industry in the 1930s. Weiss skipped bail and was apprehended by federal agents in Kansas City, Missouri. He was charged on a narcotics violation and also for the September 1936 murder of confectioner Joseph Rosen. The candy store owner threatened to reveal information about the trucking industry to New York City prosecutor Thomas Dewey. Weiss and Harry "Pittsburgh Phil" Strauss eliminated Rosen, riddling him with bullets inside his shop.
