Bag Man
A bag man is a pivotal, albeit short-lived, character in every gangster movie since the inception of gangster movies.
Technically speaking, a bag man is the person designated to collect and subsequently distribute ill-gotten gains to public officials in the form of bribes. A bag man is also associated with money collected in any criminal enterprise, be it selling drugs, or running booze, cigarettes, or any other type of contraband.
