    Train robberies, stage-coach holdups, posses, breakouts and shoot-em-ups step out of the darker pages of Michigan’s past and spring to life in Tom Carr’s MI Bad: Robbers, Cutthroats and Thieves in Michigan’s Past and Present.The Great Lakes State has seen more than its share of sensational crimes in the last couple of centuries. MI Bad shines a searchlight on several of the most jaw-dropping capers and rogues, including:• A couple of 1880s prostitution procurers who roll drunken lumberjacks for their wages in a whorehouse and bury bodies in shallow graves. The two die drunk and destitute in a freezing shack.• Baby Face Nelson gets his big-time career start — with an actual baby — in a bank holdup in Depression-era Grand Haven.• A 1970s, cinema-esque escape from Jackson State Prison that falls apart quickly once outside the razor wire.• Train robbing brothers who get away with fortunes all over the Midwest, until one of them puts a bullet in the head of a well-liked Grand Rapids cop.• A 1960s cop and a 2010s fifth-grade teacher break bad.• Huge posses of armed Michiganders rush out to help — and sometimes hinder — a bank stickup. • A 19th Century U.P. boomtown finally has enough of a brothel owner beating the women he holds captive.• Plus many more blood-and-money tales of Wolverine-state intrigue, suspense or just plain awfulness. MI Bad is author Tom Carr’s follow-up to his successful, Michigan historical true crime debut, Blood on the Mitten: Infamous Michigan Murders, 1700s-Present, also published by Mission Point Press/Chandler Lake Books.
