Show Notes

AKA The Loomis Fargo heist was a robbery that took place in 1997 when then employee, David Ghant, loaded up 17 million dollars into a company van one night after his shift, only to then disappear into thin air. Leading the FBI on an international manhunt, as well as a large-scale investigation into his accomplices, which resulted in 21 people being indicted for the crime,  20 of which plead guilty.  It is also the basis for the hit comedy movie “Masterminds” starring Zack Galifinakis in the leading role as David Ghant and Owen Wilson as his “accomplice”, Steve Chambers.
