Gambling, prostitution and bootlegging have been going on in
Steubenville for well over one hundred years. Its Water Street
red-light district drew men from hundreds of miles away, as well as
underage runaways. The white slave trade was rampant, and along
with all the vice crimes, murders became a weekly occurrence. Law
enforcement seemed to turn a blind eye, and cries of political
corruption were heard in the state capital. This scenario replayed
itself over and over again during the past century as mobsters and
madams ruled and murders plagued the city and county at an alarming
rate. Newspapers nationwide would come to nickname this mecca of
murder "Little Chicago."
