The term 'NESS' CREW' is a reference to the group of federal agents known as the FEDS, which is an acronym for Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). The FBI is a law enforcement agency of the United States government that is responsible for investigating crimes and protecting the nation from threats. The FEDS are often referred to as Ness' Crew, in reference to the famous Prohibition-era agent Eliot Ness, who was the leader of a group of law enforcement officers known as the Untouchables.
