It’s amazing how quickly the law can act when it’s the banks money.
Exactly. When it comes to missing people, there’s cold cases.
@@soapychikin Heard about a guy who killed a kid in a fight. never went to jail, got arrested a few times after just to be checked up.
Then later in life same guy managed to steal some money from the state, cant really remember how, and then the prosecutors bent every law they could to put him in jail for 10 years. Funny world were money means more than the lives of others
Agreed, when it's a missing person it's so different right!
They acts even faster to ride off public money
The only way they would have solved it quicker would be if Gant and the gang were black.
After watching so many of these types of documentaries, I've noticed that the authorities will spend more time and resources to recover money than catch killers. Not sure if I'm surprised.
Approval-seeking nonsense.
Facts..
True
After watching so many RUclips comments, I've noticed that many of them are populist bullshit with zero footing in reality.
I can't even explain how dumb your comment sounds. You drew conclusions based on a few documentaries? And those documentaries were all "of these types"? And you don't realize you might be getting a biased picture? Also, it seems there are always enough gullible fools with confirmation bias that will back up any old made up bullshit.
YEAH
I worked for a retailer in Hickory, NC, and encountered David on multiple occasions for cash pickups. He was the kindest, most soft spoken man I've ever met. 30 years later, and I still can't believe he did this.
And he said he would do it again 😂
He was a very nice man he's never stolen 17 million before 😅
Who was the man who jumped out of an airplane over the midwest?
No, he just stole $16 million! LOL!
@@charlesosbun9381 Well stealing 16 million doesn't prove your not a nice man

It's because everything has gone downhill since the 90s

I really enjoyed this too.
I wish the FBI would investigate the fortune of politicians as thoroughly…
They will if there´s a proven case. Actually, it happens all the time. Ray Nagin, The Keating Five, Randy Cunningham, Edwin W. Edwards, Paul Powell, Kwame M. Kilpatrick, Warren G. Harding....both parties, mostly GOP, of course. But, you won´t hear about them if your only source for info is Fox or Newsmax....
It does. They investigate the fortune of politicians who stand in the way of the establishment politicians that they support
Could start with N. Pelosi, the others are in plain sight

Right!?
Man, how dumb is that couple buying all that stuff in cash, with 20's, right after a big heist like that in the same town.
this, just wow
Broke people whole goes from rag to rich are stupid and dum
Who'd ever pull of a multi-million $ heist and expect they're going to be able to make any big purchases in $20s anyway? It's going to be a little suspish if you're buying a car or a house? Seems like a headache to try & spend.
@@BjAn you could tell she was dumb by how she was talking
That's why it's called the Dumbest Heist 😂

"Mastermind"
This was a weekly TV show back in the 90s-early 2000s. We used to watch it every week.
We've had similar heists in Kenya by Wells Fargo employees, and what I have never understood is why the corporate giants would underpay these guys. Its not good to keep a hungry starving lion around young gazelles.
yeah right imagine being poor af but being around millions in cash all the time, it would be seriously hard to resist, especially if you were left alone with ALL the keys! lol
In Kenya, when exactly are people not breaking the law?
Impressive analogy!
Well said!
💖💎🏆
What I don't like about this entire story is that banks actually get benefited, and they are the biggest stealers
I heard a story of a guy that robbed a convenience store and when he was leaving to get away he backed into a pile of snow that had been pushed out of the parking lot and left a perfect impression of his tag in the snow. The cops were waiting on him when he arrived home
I would have been fooled because it would be backwards.
My companion of 12 years spoke of this crime. The issue is that the tag was paper
David Gant is a likable down to Earth guy, someone I could be friends with. I liked his honesty when asked if he would do it again, sure I would.
imagine stealing all that money and then giving all of it to people who did nothing to help other than taking it off your hands
The the power 😺😺😺 and a man the probably never had luck with women
No,I can't, I would kill those others for sure.1 by1.
@@rjb1987xx he was married.
@@spiderreed350 But was he happily 🤔
RIGHT !!! 😆😆😆
David Ghantt was an idiot. If I'm the ONLY one on tape stealing the money there's NO WAY I would have to wait on others to send me money I'm the ONLY one on tape stealing. Ghantt was the ONLY one with a KNOWN association to the money and was on tape stealing it. If his accomplices would have knocked him off IMMEDIATELY after he delivered the van with the money, the police wouldn't have had a clue on where to start looking. They knew NOTHING about Ghantt's. accomplices.
My God... the items removed from the Chambers' home shows that money definitely can't buy you taste. Those ridiculous items!
I so would have bought that Elvis on black velvet from the auction.
What??! That's a beautiful Elvis painting! Shame on you!
You can, however, hire an interior designer
This was a dramatic recreation for the purpose of telling a story. Do you believe that they actually went out and bought all of the furniture, etc. back so they could film this?
A velvet painting of Elvis? seriously?!!?
Two heists in one! Both the bank and David got robbed. I couldn’t help but root for David to get away with it though…I think the FBI agents liked him too 😂
plus they were about to kill him -kelly was the head of all this and should be charge more than 5 years
I remember living in N.C when this happened. The local radio stations was making fun of this because these idiots went from living in a single wide trailer to throwing a half a million in cash on a multi million dollar home 🤣. Plus they just burned through money like Rick James in a strip club.
Yeah, just so happened to have $5M here in my Trailer. Think I'll just pick up and move. Nobody will notice
😅😅.... good one on the Rick James quip.
Ever see the movie The Masterminds with Zach Galifinakis? It's based on this actual story
"I don't know your name; but I just stole $17M. And here's the key to the van."
"And oh, don't forget to send me my share."
lol
Exactlyyyy like bruh what?! Over a chick that doesn't give a damn about you. And the fact that it was a vault with non sequential money was the luckiest thing in the world. They deadass coulda got away

Actually the moral of the story is to straight bs your "accomplices" and take more than literally 300 grams of 100 dollar bills to a foreign country...
I THINK..WHEN U MAKE BAD.. BAD KARMA ALSO U WILL GET .IF UR MATERIALISTICS U SEE 95% u think Money .David ken is very confused n tired of his life maybe..he have problems in his family /little salary in his works..maybe he sacrifices his self...I think he knows everything..he just did it..

@@jewdollaz305 the other guy and his wife. They stole the money too.
@Jew Dollaz No, he stole 17.3M. The FBI recovered 88% of that money, leaving 1.32M that wasn't recovered. There were 8 co-conspirators plus Ghantt. Divide 9 into that 1.32M and each one got 205,000 and some change.

Wow, I really felt for this David Gant guy. And I loved his honesty about saying he would do it again if he had the chance.
He's out by now...wonder what he's doing? 🤔
Gant mighta been better off keeping his honesty to himself tho bcz if he ever gets another job, which he most likely will at _some_ point, his employer might've saw this video too & will know Mr. Gant is not to be trusted ....
@UCdQ46g_x6QInsDnSABp48KA you never lied 🤣 he looked so sad in Mexico holding a huge L for stealing all that money, having to call ASKING for some of it & didnt get the girl eitha 🤣 smdh
Ghantt, not "Gant."
I can’t believe he said that. He totally didn’t learn his lesson, even though it almost got him killed. What a doofus. Theft is wrong, no matter how easy it might be to just do it. It’s like he has no conscience. I’m glad his wife divorced him. I hope she found a better life after him.
I say this as someone who doesn’t have a job or money, so don’t think I haven’t been dirt poor myself.
The fact that he blew approx 30,000 in less than two months is the exact reason why his wife kept him on a strict budget lol
😂 crazy amount to spend even for today !!!
@Puerto Rico Vive nah, I’d still budget. I’d be banging mad hookers all over my state, except the big city and going to strip clubs.
With 17mil I would spent that 30k in one week 😂😂🤣🤣
Probably why they had 30 years worth of debt too
YUP!!! HIS WIFE KEPT HIM ON A DIET AND NOW THE GANG DONE THE SAME THING, ONLY WORSE. WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE BEHAVIOUR. NOTHING HAS CHANGED. ONLY THE CIRCUMSTANCES.....
Just an fyi, the polygraph test has been proven to be completely unreliable in detecting honesty or dishonesty. There is no reason to take it unless you just want to for the fun of it. Realize that if you "fail" it and you are innocent, the inspectors will probably focus more energy on you, and the guilty party will have an advantage.
Fact
I think it’s actually reliable but it’s not submissible in court
@@jessiec2220_admissible._
There is reason why it isn't admissable in court.
Google, the lie behind the lie detector. It isnt reliable.
The number of times Gant finds out someone else has been brought in without his knowledge is nuts.
He was set up from the start. He a fool he lost everything. In life
What i love doing is watching thesw documentaries on youtube then go through the comments which are enjoyable and paints a picture of what to expect
Some times it can spoil it, so you gotta be careful. But I do the same.
Lol me too

Secret of committing a crime is do it alone and tell nobody not even your mother wife anyone.
So funny the FBI had no idea what the pager code 143 meant!! It means "I Love You"
I'm 38 and I had a pager almost all my teenage years I loved it 143 will always stay in my head as I love you even when I look at the clock I'm like it's I love you time have a good day happy New Year thanks for reminding me of the good old days
@@annacruz4085 You have a wonderful New Year also
When the narrator said they didn't know what it meant, I shook my head. There is NO way the FBI didn't know what that meant.
It was The Wonderful "Mr Rodgers" favorite #! I have the numbers tattooed!
Proving, there is no honor among thieves. Being locked out of the van with that key ring and bulletproof glass had me rolling. The three stooges came immediately to mind.
With all the millions, I wonder why the security at the warehouse was worse than that of a supermarket?
@Barry Baz yeah.. i also watched about the other robbery.. they never learned!!!
Because they try to save costs at the wrong end - same old story.
I don't think supermarkets have safes as big as that.

Lol
He probably meant to say he would do it better next time, having learned from his mistakes... maybe only take what he needed for himself to live comfortably for the rest of his new life, without accomplices. If he had been paid enough to live comfortably doing his job, I don't believe he would have committed any crime.
@@nyreekrikorian maybe he wouldn't have. Maybe he would: It was not just that he was poor: He wanted much more than what he could get, even with a well-paid job. He also wanted this gal in his life. Altough low wages make it easier for guards to be tempted, higher wages aren't a safeguard against temptation like that.
I've watched this episode over Ten Times.1 of the greatest of all time
I agree
There is a movie The Masterminds based on this.. Zach Galifinakis from the hangover plays David... its pretty funny
How no one found that van and its contents before the FBI is amazing
what a shocker that the woman that set all of this up gets the lightest sentencing.
i suppose that's not the way we should see it, for breaking the law each and every one bears his/her oneself responsibility
She did not kill him. She did not steal the money herself. Wow, what a surprise she got the lightest.

To get away with a heist and then get caught up making excessively large cash purchases when the FBI is looking for you has to be the dumbest thing imaginable. The fool deserved to get caught.

Got to admire Wells Fargo for saving investors money by entrusting 17 million dollars in untraceable cash to one guy, a guy who is having trouble making the payments on a used single wide trailer on what they pay him, and has been recently written up for leaving bundles of cash out unattended. The best part is they only find out the money is gone when his wife gets pissed he didn't show up with her midnight snack after work.

I was a Security Manager in a casino. Rule #1- No one has all the keys. It was always a two-key, two individuals from different departments to enter any secured rooms. Vault, main bank, card & chips room. Surveillance always notified prior to approaching. Then, we could not enter until notified by Surveillance. Never entrust a single individual with all keys!
I was flabbergasted by the number of keys on that key ring, that detail just struck me as insane stupidity😵💫. Yes, security has improved for the better. Thanks for the update

I can’t help but feel so sorry for Gant. He was a straight shooter all his life until his low-life accomplices tempted him at the perfect time to convince him to do this. They give Gant a meager $30K while they hold $17 million, then gets irritated when he asks for more several months later, and decides to hire a hit man to kill him. That’s so freaking despicable.
Yep, if they hadn't been so greedy, they ALL would have gotten away with it.
Seriously? He showed no remorse in the prison interview.
Greed was their undoing. I agree if they had only just given Gant his share.......hahaha what idiots, especially Chambers now that's one idiot of all idiots 🤣🤣🤣

Really tough spending money in small denominations to pay for big stuff because the feds were on the lookout for that. If being a smart spender means they should not have spent big to arouse suspicions, then that would defeat the very purpose of stealing all that cash, and that is to have money to spend on things they couldn't afford. Even gradually turning those small bills into 100s would still be risky as the feds would be on the lookout for that angle too.
The only safe thing they could have done was to spend for their daily needs as normal and keep a job for the rest of their lives and gamble in casinos from time to time with little seed money and hope to win big from time to time so they'd have legal cash to spend on big items. Afterall, they still have money in small bills to fall back on to everytime they lose in the casino. As to the simp guy, he was a plain and simple liability for the rest of the gang.
some ppl rly dont know the term: "keep it down low until heat dies down." but nooh, these ppl are "oh, i just robbed a bank. let me go on a spending spree. no one will totally put 2 and 2 together"
When you have this many people involved, as well as being so greedy, they were bound to get caught.
The real mindless part about it is, that he didn't even know them and that he said that he would do it again 🤯 Actually it took me back when Florida Mega millions lottery a bunch of years ago. This Guy took $15,000 out of his Son's collage fund and spent it on lottery tickets and paid. others to check them. Absolutely mindless. The lottery at that time was about $140,000,000. I've got the ticket, hear it is🤯 Wright😏 The same mind set🤪

The security company should be ashamed for not paying their employees a decent wage. Great work by the FBI. Great show.
Kathleen I agree. These guys get robbed and killed for transporting and just picking up such large sums of money. They should be compensated for the huge responsibility of transporting all that money.
@@laraoneal7284 The bottom line is that the money is insured and Wells Fargo was one of those too big to fail banks where they don't even care about billions, let alone a couple million. The low wage security people and the manner of storing the money exactly represents the importance of it to this jew mafia.
Perfectly acceptable for the bankers to steal billions from the people but when one minimum wage servant tries it!
Different story altogether.
@@petej8556 The worst thing about banks like these is that they privatize all the profit and socialize all the loss. The clowns over at the FBI, instead of working on solving real crimes like murders and pedo rings were chasing after money which was printed out of thin air for these jew institutions to gamble with because why not take huge risk when the tax payers will bail out all your losses...They even used planes to surveil small time crooks dumb enough to make deposits to other banks with WF wrappers still on 20 dollar bills. That's why try reporting any serious crime to FBI, they will do nothing but file your complaint because they have more urgent business of settling scores between politicians and protecting the jew wealth in US.
He’s dumb as a doorknob... If anyone can do your job don’t expect a high wage.
The ones that wanted to KILL Gant should spend more years locked.
Does she get the death penalty
correct
The death sentence. Known as life incarcerated without parole.
I want to see the people who plotted Gant's elimination to get ten years added to their sentences....
Yeh that’s crazy but at least the scumbags will be paying the bank back for the rest of their lives.
David Gantt only received 7.5 years and was paroled after 5, considering they only recovered 88% of the money it may have worked out for him in the end lol.
He only made 38K out of it. Not much to show for 2.5 years of jail, losing your wife, fantasy g/f and any future prospects of employment. He has no clue as to where any more might still be buried.
Bro barley got a percent of the 17.3M he stole
His name ( and I am sure those that come after him) is besmirched forever
Sure it did! He saw less than a half percent of what he stole from his job!!! He lost his wife and everything else along with it!!! He'll be struggling for the rest of his life and has a criminal record to boot!!! He even said he'd do it again if he got the chance!!! I don't call that working out for him lol. He had 0 remorse for the crime at all!!!
@@charleswhite758 He's white. He'll be alright. He'll find a job and stable income in no time.
I love how the FBI makes it sound like they wanted Gant's safety above all else and the money last. Sure, we believe that. 🙄🤦♀️ I mean I'm glad they saved his life but I don't believe that was their #1 priority except as a means to get to the truth and to be able to punish him for exposing weak links in the system and exploiting that.
It was always about the money first and everything else after that.
Well yeah, it makes sense. It is the governments money in a war since the banks are insured by the federal government up to $250,000 per customer.
Just life and the reality of it. People do not matter when it comes to money, power. All for selfish reasons. But the law well that is how it works if we like it or not.
Magnificent story telling and the actors gave justice to the story. Well done.
The comedy movie Masterminds was based on this robbery 😂…. It’s hilarious.
LOL because this is from an actual TV show…not a YT doc
Steve's actor was so good at playing Mastermind douchebag 😎🤣☺️
I love the part they are waiting on AMW and eating like for real. Even the guy that throws his napkin at the TV. I do that when watching a game. 😂
@@commiezombie2477 k
Kelly should have gotten the most years since she started the ball rolling and planed it out while deceiving David.
EXACTLY ! thank you. It was her idea.. she conned Dave in a sexual way... she put the various players in touch.. she cooordinated communications between all... she was part of the conspiracy to commit murder. It shouldnt work that way, where the criminal who betrays their cohorts gets less time.
She smoothed it out to a level surface while deceiving David?
Ikr she's definitely a smooth talker and a smooth conspiracy to kill not only did she smooth her way into deceiving David but she did it with the FBI agents just to get a lighter sentence!?
She should've gotting the more time than she did, talking about forgiving the guy she was setting up to kill what a bummer!!
@@MrSimondaniel3 She's definitely the mastermind on the whole deal but then get off with a slap on the wrist probably because she didn't go out all lavished like the reat that's her being cooperative with the FBI!!
The mean thing is she was on borad to kill David even though he was the one who stolen all the cash they didn't wanna shared it with him then apologise to him for setting him up!?
Talk about a bumper!!
And she assisted planned murder
“Would I do it again?….. Um, yeah.” Hilarious.
Wonder if they would rehire him??
It’s like the end of Good Fellas lmao
THE BEST PART WAS, WHEN THEY WERE OPENING THE VAN WITH A BUNCH OF KEYS, THAT WAS SO FUNNY.
yeah just got to that part now. Its hilarious 200 keys one van lol criminals are clowns for sure...
they get to the columbian airport and no flights to Mexico
Yeh there were a gazillion keys on that one ring huh lol
Could these guys been more stupid? As soon as I saw him with that huge bunch of keys I was wondering why he didn't just take off the key he needed, imagine going through 200 keys in the dark...dumb af
@@samking2094 well he did all this for a woman he kissed. once.
And they tried using rocks to break bulletproof windows 😂😂
They had us in the first half not gonna lie. This was looking like the best heist in American history.
Misleading title. This was a great heist. If they hadn't tried to kill him they likely get away with it.
@@tomdallas3690 I agree, the actually heist was very good. But what they did after is what screwed it up.
The follow up, hiding the ill-gotten goods and converting it to wealth you can invest with, is the hardest and most important part of the heist. Any idiot can drive off route with a truck full of money and park in a concealed location. But if you can't spend it without getting caught, you haven't really gotten away with anything.
Also, the best heist, Chambers would've gotten someplace for Gant to park the truck, like a warehouse or an old barn, not a field near his work. Should've emptied it and dumped it in a river as many miles away as they could've gotten.
@@tomdallas3690 They would get away with it if they waited with spending the money for a year or two. Trying to kill him was not why the FBI got them. Actually killing him makes some sense as he was the only link to the heist, but of course it's not a nice thing to do
Whoever said that criminals were smart? In the end they all went to jail. 😃😀😄😆😄
I totally agree with every word you said. That was her responsibility, to 'protect' her brand. If that's all her type of people can do is focus on a 5 second clip,then it says more about them! Great respect to you, and Cherry for the response. You stay true to you💖🇬🇧💖🇬🇧
Tremendously produced documentary. Bravo. The story flowed so smoothly.
Who are you to give life advice to people you don't know.. unless you're a preacher..TOM DALLAS😀..
I'm joking good comment
It didn’t have to be almost 2 hours I had to skip around because it dragged out…
And yes - he totally looks like Boris Becker

This is a popular tv show.
I really hoped David would have gotten away with it.... I was rooting for you Dave!!!!
Same😂😂
Saaaaame lol
Same he doesn’t seem like a bad dude lol his friends though...
David Ghantt was a 100% MORON. He steals $17 mil and then gives it up to strangers as soon as he leaves Loomis ? He walks away with only $30K of $17 mil ? He did it for the love of a woman he had only kissed once ? The best that I can say for David is that he was a Naive and Gullible puppet for others. I mean that he was too STUPID to ever think of robbing Loomis on his own. His work GF Kelly just played this SUCKER like a fiddle. He's lucky that being a DUMMY isn't a crime because he would deserve a life sentence just for that. ... jkulik919@gmail.com
Someone smarter than Ghant (99% of the world) who was serious about robbing Loomis would've realized that he didn't even need $17 mil to have a great life. $4 mil would've been plenty (and easier to handle) if he had been smart enough to choose a destination where that would make him wealthy. Also, finding a nation with no extradition treaty with America would've been a priority. Some criminals have found Costa Rica to be such a place and have left the FBI helpless to touch them. This is yet another case where the criminal was caught NOT because the cops were so Smart, but only because all the criminals here were Just SO Stupid. ... jkulik919@gmail.com
As the saying goes, “there’s no honor among thieves.”
Messiest heist ever- you need professionals like brokers, politicians and corporate Ceos.
"He bought breast enlargements for his 2 sisters, and paid for new breasts and a new nose for his wife." Eric Payne sure did care about the women in his life. 🤣🤣🤣

I love this guy!
Had Loomis taken care of their vault supervisor, had he been able to pay his bills and live in relative comfort, this never would have happened.
All the armored car businesses pay very little to their employees, very little over minimum wage …
Well not much skill in keeping the doors locked. And sign a book saying nothing happened in the last hour.
Yes Kira.... it was the companies fault. I certainly wouldn't want anybody to be personally accountable for their actions.
@@thepitpatrol You are missing the point. The vault supervisor should not be earning barely over minimum wage. Of course, he should be held accountable. But also, he was tricked and used by the accomplices who were going to off him. The lady who was setting him up to be killed got more money but less time than him. That's murder right? I don't know. But, I think Kira is right. If he had been paid what he was worth, there's a good chance he wouldn't have been tempted to do the crime.
For REAL! That is a very important job, even though it may not take a lot of skill. It's disgusting that they are paid poorly. Not saying that it's ok to steal. It's David's fault, and his accomplices. The accomplices and Kelly should have gotten twice the time as David though.
Great recreation, about was happened.
I like the narrator's voice 👍
WOW! This is better than any movie I've ever seen.
These are the dumbest criminals I ever seen. Spending money with no way of accounting for any of it. Stay in a small town where you stand out like a sore thumb.
Seen with the other criminals so the FBI can connect you together. Fools!
When fools steel they start show off.
How about the stupid part where they try depositing thousands of dollars of cash to the bank and mentioning to the teller its bot drug money
In the 90s a guard made around $5 /hour. Today it is around $11 per hour. Low pay doesn't justify crime, but I wonder if it contributes to someone, who has no criminal history, in choosing to rob their employer.
It don’t matter how much you make the more you make per hour the higher inflation.
In 1997 made $7.25 an hour cleaning cars at age 18. So I think you're wages are a little off but I see your point.
@@joanbaczek2575 they brainwashed you folks to keep your pay low . no one can pay rent on $7 an hour in 2021
@TANKTHEARC it's not brainwashing...it's people in need of money to live and the greedy employers that don't pay. There's two ways to make money, earn it or steal it. Employers know they can pay low because if you don't want the job, there'll be someone else desperate, enough to do it for cheap.
@joan baczek it's not inflation, it's taxes...the more you make, the more they take. Mafias use extortion against business to allow the business to work in an area/field...The Feds extort it's citizens via taxes, and not only the citizens but the businesses they work for as well. It's a scheme, it's disgusting and it's one of the big problems in America...because it doesn't just stop with the Feds, some States, and even cities also tax the money you make, on top of what the Feds are taking.
Here’s what I don’t get: Who just leaves $3.3 Million dollars? If I had $300 billion I wouldn’t leave $3 million behind.
this was made into a movie that somehow managed to be even funnier than the real life facts.
Hard to figure which of the thieves was greedier or stupider.
Yeah the movie is hilarious
@Allyourbase1990 what's it called?

"Masterminds" was a great movie about this heist.
Yoooo!! Lol bout to go rewatch this movie now
The 30 min tv show Masterminds was another great show, wasnt about this but alot of other great heists
Dang right your comment right out of my mind..👍👍🐷
@@sendit1158 one of my favorite shows of all time. Wish it didn't get the boot
Yeah but masterminds wasn’t the true true story
Whenever possible I always try to use cash; even on large purchases. It's nobody's business.
Yes but the banks in which you received the money and then withdrew shows that you earned it one way or another, and it’s yours. I guess taxes also trace it. But if you’re spending large amounts cash but your bank account shows your normal pay and that no large amount had hit your account, then it’s suspicious to them.
One of my favorite comedy movies 😭😂
They had more keys than sense. I like the nice cop screaming "GET DOWN ON THE GROUND" as he throws him on the comfy bed !
My favorite has always been that cartoon of the cop yelling, " FEEEZE, GET ON THE GROUND!"
And the criminal casually says while standing still, "Wellz what is it officer? Do ya want me to freeze? Or get on the ground?"
America in a nutshell
Instructions can have more than 1 step.
1. Freeze (stop what you are doing)
2. Get down on the ground. (Now get down on the ground)
Not that fucken complicated.
Guess what usually comes next.
3. Hands behind your back
4.Stand up
"But officer... you said Feeze" 😆
In all this I feel bad for his wife, leaving his wife for another woman who ended up betraying him I'm glad she divorce him I also would've left him
Yeah but she treated him like a dog,don't let him spend a dime when he's the one who worked for it.screw her.
@@spiderreed350 yeah i hear you on that. did they even mention if she brought some money in herself or was he just slaving away to live in a trailer park?
@@spiderreed350 000pp0000pppppppppppppppppppppp
She was watching the money like she was because they ran up the credit cards. So it's no excuse for what he did
@@spiderreed350 She was watching the money like she was because they ran up the credit cards. Don't blame her for what he did.
They could have bought a huge old barn and made it a mansion on the inside. With staying with only close friends. They could have stayed under the radar. Maybe start a lawn care business to slowly legitimize the money. They were literally just lazy
Great watch. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
