Ep. 170: Jesse James Hollywood (Murder) & Joseph Prushinowski (Fraud)

Happy Holidays! Thanks to all our loyal listeners we love you guys. This podcast would not exist without you. --Consider supporting us on Patreon: https://bit.ly/2Dfa4iv ------------------------------- These segments were handpicked by one of our Patreons. First we talk about Jesse James Hollywood. A little suburban badass who was owed money by a Kid Rock lookalike named Ben Markowitz. Since Ben wasn't paying his drug debt, Jesse decided to kidnap Ben's younger brother Nick as collateral. It was supposed to be a fairly harmless operation... however it didn't end up that way. Next we talk about the case of the "Robinhood Rabbi", Joseph Prushinowski. An orthodox Jew, Prushinowski defrauded numerous financial institutions out of millions of dollars. The twist in this story is that Prushinowski did not seem to personally benefit from any of these illicit activities. It is believed that he literally stole from the rich and gave to the poor, in this case, his orthodox Jewish community. ------------------------------- For more Josh and Mike, check out our YouTube channels!
