Big FBI Robbery Cases (Part 2) | TRIPLE EPISODE | The FBI Files

Описание: Price of Greed: In September 1997, a team of masked gunmen robbed an armored car facility in Los Angeles, and made off with $18.9 million, the largest takeover heist in U.S. history. An employee believed she recognized the voice of one of the robbers, and FBI agents began conducting surveillance on a former employee of the facility. With only one piece of physical evidence, a fragment of a vehicle taillight, authorities hoped to connect him to the crime, and locate his accomplices.

Home Invaders: In the early 1980’s, a pair of serial bank robbers gained a reputation among law enforcement officials as formidable bandits. Using the same modus operandi, the two men took hostages and emptied bank vaults across the Midwest. After the criminals escaped from police custody, FBI agents familiar with the bandits believed that they would attempt a grand-scale heist. By conducting surveillance on known associates of the criminals, authorities tried to anticipate the next target.

Held Hostage: In October 1995, a South Carolina family was taken hostage as part of an elaborately planned bank robbery. Local police quickly identified two of the perpetrators, but the criminal mastermind proved more elusive. After his escape from custody, authorities began to suspect the fugitive of involvement in a series of bank robberies up and down the east coast, and the FBI remained on his trail, hoping to catch him before he took more hostages.
