Episode Highlights
"We want to start doing more brick-and-mortar, but in small towns where towns don't actually get maybe the notice they get... go in these towns where just no one really has a voice." - Jordan Schley, Care2Talk Founder
"The accounts are wild—like multiple people seeing full apparitions sitting at a table beside them. There's two people I interviewed who both saw at the same time a crate of dishes hovering several feet and then dropping and smashing." - Shanon Sinn, Author

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
