This true crime story is not about a heist pulled off by a notorious bank robber or a cunning scam artist—but an audacious act of bureaucratic theft that spans generations.  It’s an audacious act of bureaucratic theft that spans generations.  Picture this: over $30 billion in matured U.S. savings bonds, investments made with trust and patriotism, are sitting unclaimed.  The rightful heirs, families like mine and maybe even yours, are stonewalled by the very institution that promised to safeguard these assets.  The U.S. Treasury, armed with meticulous records of bondholders, holds fast to those names while demanding impossible proof—a serial number—to claim what’s rightfully ours. It’s a $30 billion heist orchestrated through silence and red tape.  Join me as I unravel this true crime story of broken promises, frustrated heirs, and the relentless pursuit of justice.  Because sometimes, the biggest heists don’t happen in the dead of night—they happen in plain sight, sanctioned by those who are supposed to protect us.
