Today we tell the story of Bill Miner, a serial criminal who was prolific in robbing, getting caught for robbing and having anyone he robbed with getting a shotgun blast to the face. Bill Miner became a folk hero in Western Canada despite the fact he was a terrible criminal and spent most of his behind bars.

On this very special episode of Heist we welcome great buddy Shane Cunningham (This Family Tree & Mike on Much, Podcasts) Shane tells us yet another crazy heist he's pulled off and we dive into the Tansy U. book heist made famous in the 2018 film American Animals when a bunch of college kids tried to steal over $15 million in rare books from the special collection library at T.U. HEEEIST. Go roosters!

During the 1980s, Crazy Eddie's was the biggest electronics chain in the Tri-State area with 49 stores and 300 million in annual sales. But guess what? It was all just a massive scam to rob Wall Street.

Welcome back to our North Hollywood Shootout two parter. In this episode we jump right in to the action.

You asked for it and we delivered. Today we are covering The North Hollywood Shootout, in two parts. While it may go against our motto of "True Crime without the murder" this heist had so many repercussions in the world of heists, and completely changed the way police forces operate that we decided this story is important enough to make an exception. If you've never heard of the North Hollywood Shoot out, it's basically a real life heat. We deep dive into the background of the two wackos that "pulled off" this heist and their stories are just as interesting as the heist itself. HEEEIST

Okay so it wasn't a mandolin it was a violin, but come on we had to go for that pun.

Today we cover a man who thought it would be a good idea to steal one of the most valuable and reconizible violins in the world. Stealing it wasn't so hard but selling it on the other end was pretty much impossible.

Michel Ferrari put together the perfect heist, he even out sourced all the criminal work to some nice Corsicans who may or may not have been in the biggest criminal organization in France. Stick around for the aftermath because let's just say, things don't work out so great for Michel Ferrari. HEEEIIISST

In 1992 a crew drilled into the vault of the Gota Bank in Stockholm. Inside they broke into over 600 safety deposit boxes and set off pretty much every alarm the bank had but somehow they still got away with $6.7 million. So many great takeaways from this story. It's a story we've been dying to tell but couldn't seem to find and English articles about it. And that's when our amazing listener Pontus stood up and volunteered to research this bad boy for us. Heist Nation delivers again. HEEEIIISST!
