CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

Itโ€™s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off Americaโ€™s third largest cash heist. But itโ€™s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular โ€˜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.
