CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
Itβs 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off Americaβs third largest cash heist. But itβs all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular βol 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.
