America’s Most Daring Heists: Inside the FBI Files | Real Stories True Crime Marathon
4 back-to-back episodes of FBI Files.
Season 4 Episode 6: In Arizona, a shipment of money vanished without a trace, along with the two men hired to guard it. Agents didn't know if the guards were willing participants or victims of an ambush. When the vehicle was recovered -- but with hundreds of thousands of dollars and the drivers missing - suspicions grew that the crime was an inside job.
Season 6 Episode 7: A bank vault was blasted into from the ceiling, and over $2 million in valuables was missing. Agents were able to track down one of the robbers' friends and attempted to use him as bait to reel in the crooks.
Dangerous Gamble: In Henderson, NV, a suburb of Las Vegas, two robbers brandishing assault rifles ambush armored guards as they exit their truck on March 3, 2000. The robbers kill both guards and seize $5,000. As the killers run to their getaway car, a police officer arrives and opens fire, striking one escaping assailant in the leg. After loosing the killers in a chase, police collect blood left by the injured robber and bullet casings from the firefight. Las Vegas Police and the FBI notice similarities to brazen midday robberies at the MGM Grand casino, the Desert Inn casino and the Mandalay Bay casino. The FBI developed a list of suspects after the September 20, 1998 MGM Grand robbery.
Season 7 Episode 15: FBI agents and local police track a gang of robbers who specialize in armored car take-downs. As the robberies grow more violent, agents launch a complex sting to trap a deadly ring of thieves and shut down their dangerous operation.

This is a really high quality programme, way better than any crime shows we have today. It goes to show how much programmes have deteriorated these days
I can't watch a lot of modern shows as they repeat everything . There's little new content in every episode.
Most the talent is gone. Many places went woke and a lot of people quit and got fired. Hired tons of fresh out of collahe indoctrinated leftists who have no talent.
I'm listening to it in bed while falling asleep. It is amazingly easy to visualise all the scenes described due to the effective use of FX sounds. You can easily follow along and form your own picture in your mind. I liken it similar to the experience of reading a book, where you have to picture the scenes yourself in your mind's eye. It's really enjoyable. The narrator's voice and the style of storytelling reminds me of Forensic Files. They are a great crime series to watch on KZhead.
@@workouts_2024 I miss these times

They should do a show about crimes perpetrated by the FBI
I was thinking it would be cool to do one on comey how he found hillary had violated many crimes , some very serious, but she would not be prosecuted
Thats literally what youre watching bro
Agree
Yeah... And with Donald Trump as host.. it would be uggge.
There ain't enough videotape in the world to make that show! 🤣🤣🤣
I miss watching shows like this with this guys voice telling the stories .good times with my family .

I like these documentaries. It would be great to see an episode about crimes committed by the FBI!

@@coybackus7665 It's just too perfect. That was one of my albums through highschool. I rocked that shiz every day. Then how perfect that a few years later KZhead takes off and the avatar shape is now a circle. When most other forums or places I visit Avatar will be like a 80x80 or 100x100 square. Perfect opportunity to bust out the prism. M-Vayne is da bomb diggy. ... I should check if I can find the DVD's they had out way back. I know of 2 concert DVD's they put out that are pretty dope. Used to drink many a beer and watch those DVD.
Honestly I miss this older analog video era of television. It's got a specific kind of charm about it.
Nostalgia
The narrator is top notch, for one thing. I like the way each person adding to the story is featured full screen. Excellent score and sound design.
ngl i really only watch these for those banger musical interludes. them beats are bangers
Exactly. Friggin' annoying
That Camera-man is the best informant ever .
I'm proud of the FBI and all of our law enforcement. Thank you for your service.
Imagine getting caught because you forgot to turn on a dishwasher 😂
Thank you for your service FBI
FBI is the best investigation police in the world, no cotupt, and the are helping people and their country, with all over the world, I like it, and how whish our police in Nigeria should be be like FBI, I am Abdul Mutallib Garba from Nigerian kaduna state, thanks American FBI.
Fantastic investigators well done
A guy I used to spar with and frequented my gym got 50 to life for armored truck robberies. I never would have known. He was such a nice guy. I just wished I knew what he was up to so I could have talked him out of doing it.
Thank GOD he didn't tell you what he was up to bc you know the old saying "if I tell you I'll have to kill you"

No matter what, you have to give these fine Agents a pat on the back!! Good for them being so thorough, dedicated, and committed to seeing these cases through!! Their jobs have to be so taxing 99% of the time!
Give them credit or a pat on the back? For what bro? For being the biggest criminals and GANG??
Nah...the CIA 1 ups the FBI in worst criminal gang's. Fbi are just puppets to them.
@@troytaylor4996shhhhh he's not smart enough to realize the government doesn't care about the people and bring drugs and crime to the USA
It's a shame the FBI has been politicised and corrupted by politicians! Epstein's list and Hunters laptop come to mind!
I LOVE 💕 TO WATCH F.B.I FILES, THESE GUYS TAKE THERE WORK VERY SERIOUS.
So sad about the Guards 😢
The subtitles in the Boston Episode are priceless. Love that Dirty Water
Well said sir
New Yak office... ha ha... every time I watch this program I have to say that out loud to myself
And driving tha amounored caa in New Yaak!

Lmao same with me
Every. Single. Time. 😂❤️I love it.
You had one job... And you still didn't push the button on the dishwasher! Think about how that story went over in prison! 😆
Haha I was looking for a certain episode but couldn’t find it. Seen your comment and knew it would be in here 😀
I’m sure they didn’t tell it
Amazing video of real stories true crime...America's most daring heists based from FBI Files. Interesting to watch till the end. Tnx4sharing.
Good show!!! 💯🤩
That bank heist was something off a movie. Matter of fact , it was a movie where they went in from the bottom or top. I can’t remember but wow, is all I can say.. It was way to many people in on it. I can’t get over how fast the guy told on himself and accomplices .They didn’t even have to keep on him before he gave it up. The FBI so happened to confront the weakest person of the 7. All the FBI agent had to say was he too was in the Marines and it was downhill after that .
What with the really annoying loud drum music
He wasn’t in on it he was part of some gang and let the guys use his house for a meeting. I mean yeah he was a criminal but he wasn’t a part of the robbery itself.
The bank job with Jason Statham is a similar ish storyline.
I love these So well done Not too many interruptions from commercials Keep up the good work!!!
If you get KZhead Premium, there are zero interruptions. It has spoiled me.
Nice job,,l highly appreciate yo works
Awesome
The first case was fascinating
Michael Poland uses his real name on the tow receipt. Unreal!
I'M SO GLAD , YOUR WHERE UR AT RT, NOW 💯 I ALWAYS FEEL SO MUCH BETTER AFTER I LISTEN TO SOME ONE WHO BTHINKS JUST LIKE ME, THANK YOU FOR BEING YOU. MY SON IS 42 my grandson is 25, I think 🤔!⁉️ U R in-between , so ur life my son too. God bless you and yours🙏🏾🙏🏽🕊️
Bot?????
I am just amazed by how they figure it out the watch stopped working by the p.m., a.m. because if I remember correctly, when I bought my dad, his watches, there was no way to tell if it was a.m. or p.m. because it was not indicated on the watch. That’s why the saying is, every watch is right twice a day.
How the heck does the production staff find actors looking almost a carbon copy of the real folks involved, Las Vegas robbers must be clones
I've wondering the same thing!
Did a short data entry project for a casting agent years ago. You'd be amazed how many different types of people they have on file, and that's just one agent and her small company. Those agents send their chosen candidates based on descriptions, and the production staff choose the best potential matches for auditions. It granulates down from thousands of people to the final chosen actors. Also, FBI Files wasn't always too accurate tbh. If you watch a lot of their episodes, you'll see they often like to re-use some of the same actors.
That is what I always wondered about!
Thanks!
It's like the intro to ER Fuzzy cam. Most charismatic presenter ever.........to have been hypnotised
Every time I see this video's thumbnail image, what first comes to mind is "Lori Lightfoot (Chicago mayor) robbing a bank".
How would the thieves know which bank to break into and where the jewelry located? How much the jewelry’s worth? It had to be an inside job.? 👀🤔🤔🤔

Just like 9/11 it was clearly an inside job 🛩️🏢
Um it was a suberb of Beverly Hills known for rich liberals who move there to retire that have multiple safety deposit vaults stored in a vault… it ain’t rocket science there bud.
How in the world does ANYONE think justice can be served if a 100 years sentence can be ended by parole after 7? Ridiculous!
because every 10 years you can apply and most likely he will be denied for how violent he was. and he served 3 years in jail before trial so 3 years gets taken off his federal sentence
@fizz284 i’m not talking about the specifics of how it works, i’m talking about the insanity of giving someone a 100 years sentence and then for any reason cutting it down to as little as little as 10% of that sentence. In 10 years will the murder victim come back to life? Will the crime magically become less violent? Will the perpetrator morph into someone who DID NOT commit the crime? No, none of those things will be true so why should the sentence EVER be reduced?
@@DanaX09 because sometimes the things you did 10 years ago shouldn't be held against you forever (weed charges or drug use charges )and its just the law weather or not is right isn't the question. its the fact its offered but will be denied based on what you did but its a way out for people who deserve a 2nd chance to restart their life and come back into society
@@Lotsof_FPS Sir if you murder someone in cold blood, you deserve NO SECOND CHANCE. You deserve to lose your life to account for the one(s) you have taken. Since the death penalty is rarely enforced even when given, the best decent people who don’t kill others can hope for is to keep the murderers in prison. If you took someone’s life in cold blood through absolute intention, why would you EVER deserve leniency?
Exactly. For a minute, I was convinced the case happened in the UK. It’s common here. -Saoirse, West Belfast, NI
the armoured car robbery from 1977, imagine the heartbreak for those families, years of anguish. and here we are 40 years later and I bet the family are still missing there loved ones. weeks from retirement, years of the good life stolen.
So basically they made the movie HEAT based off of this heist. Even Van Zandt was in there.
Tight crew.
I freaking love this show! Thank you for the compilation!
spray foaming the alarm bell was pretty smart
The 1972 bank job through the roof, the guys sure were talented
Yes please a fbi busted season. There should be enough content out for it. Lots of conspiracy these days
I always find it interesting that when people who commit murder are caught, they usually take a plea bargain because they are afraid of the death penalty. Yet they have no problem killing people. These two did take plea bargains but they didn’t want the death penalty.
😊A7e I see
well, i believe it's mainly Innocent people & Wrongfully Accused people who are persuaded to take a plea deal. Here's why: plea deal cases are finite, with a known sentence. Many innocent people are told that if their case goes to trial, they might receive a much longer sentence. Meanwhile, those who don't accept a plea deal are entered into Justice System Limbo: Take this case of innocent wrongfully accused young sixteen-year old, Kalief Browder. He spent 3 Years in Rikers prison for a crime he didn't commit, awaiting a trial that never happened. For three years, the justice system tried to get the teenager to say he was guilty (by accepting a plea deal.) Kalief Browder did NOT accept a plea deal, but maintained his innocence. The 16-yr old black teen's punishment for claiming his innocence: he was thrown into prison, Rikers Island, where guards & inmates are allowed & condoned &, imno, encouraged to brutalize innocent people who didn't accept a plea deal. So sickening! The teenager was beaten, starved, abused there for no reason other than an exorbitant bail amount that his family could not afford. A short time after his release, he committed suicide.
@@JaneDoe-ql7sc Innocent? Wrongly convicted? What's that, 0.0000001% of all cases? It's negligible no matter how many bad cop videos are shown on AL Jazeera
@@JaneDoe-ql7sc yeah, that was a messed up situation. I watched the documentary. Did you watch it also or you know about it via media?
@@JaneDoe-ql7sc that’s so tragic. Thanks for sharing his story. May he never be forgotten. -Saoirse, West Belfast, NI
If the first brothers hasn’t rented a boat to dispose of the bodies and just had dumped them there in the desert where they stopped they probably would have gotten away with that crime. Glad they paid the price they did though.
& using the tow man was a mistake

Idk the death sentence is just the most bullshit thing to me. Especially how it’s decided and such. The guy had genuine remorse and took part in the deaths but not at all like his brother. I don’t necessarily feel bad about it either. Just surprising he was executed.
@Weber yeah I get that. I'm a supporter of Capitol punishment, but I agree there needs to be more concrete guidelines as to who is deserving of it. You do the crime, you do the crime. But what is the time, when the crime is not necessarily specified? Maybe attaching an automatic death penalty to very specific qualifying circumstances may do some work in the way of deterrence. Definitely feel some type of way about an accomplice that was not as heavily involved in the actual act, getting the same penalty. The same magnitude, like life in prison, sure. But death? No chance of reform, even in prison? A little much. That would likely have been an issue of the two being tried together as opposed to separately, I'm assuming, though.
Two motorcycle cops should ALWAYS accompany security vans. ALWAYS!
Difference between American and British bank robbers? Loyalty! 1st American caught and offered a plea deal, starts singing like a canary.
How the heck can someone be eligible for parole after 7 years when they got sentenced to 100 years??? Someone please explain this to me.
Maybe the intervals between the mandatory minimum and maximum sentences are insane for some crimes. For example, some people convicted of murder get 25 to life. In Illinois, if it's a less serious crime and you get a 3 year sentence but have spend 2 years and 10 months in jail awaiting trial, you'll get sentenced to 3 with time served so you only have to stay for 2 more months. with more serious crimes the majority of people here in prison only have to serve 85%. but like I said, any time they have spent in jail awaiting trial, it gets taken off your sentence. And the internals for applying for parole diff. So just hypothetically, let's say they can apply for parole every 10 years, and they have already spent 3 years in jail before being convicted. they'd subject the three from the 10 so then they'd only have to serve seven years in prison before they can apply. oh but I just remembered that this would be a federal crime, and with federal crimes you have to serve your entire sentence. I already forgot where this took place so their laws are probably different, I was just explaining how it is here in Illinois. But I agree, being eligible for parole after 7 years of a 100 year sentence sounds insane. But most people get rejected multiple times, moreso if it's a violent crime.
Federal time is different than state time

@@yolo4dolo28 I guess. Still makes me angry 😡
How can you put someone for 100 years with circumstantial evidence - that’s the question!
Love how the narrator leaves gaps for the acting but the actors clearly haven't been given a script
what gets me the back windows in a money van you can see in the back off the van
anyone that would let someone out after 7 years.Either has no conscience and or hasn't had a loved one murdered.That person needs to spend time in jail as well!
Factz wife’s new they should of gone to jail if I see my husband bring tons of money and two ppl trust I no it was husbands but they wanted to live that good life it crazy the wife should of been arrested and pay for everything
I often wonder if the geniuses who keep releasing these repeat offending turds back out into society( especially violent robbers, r@pist , and kid touchers ) , if these turds were being released into their own neighborhoods. It's obvious that prison is zero of a deterrent to these repeat offending💩s.
A little less background noises and music would be good otherwise great to listen to
It is the original program, not much you can do about it. 😅

Just shows that with nationwide jurisdiction and ready resources, case that would have gone unsolved can be successfully pursued.
"I've been waiting for someone to come talk to me" dude of you had such a juicy tip you should have rung in yourself They get 100 years but could be out in 7 wtf
what was he going to say “hey some guys called me to pull their stuck truck out of the lake but they didn’t have fishing gear?” lol
First episode was so well explained. What a tragic morality tale - four lives ended, and many more ruined - for what? A year of spending, and the rest of the cash left to rot underground. Those poor security guards, my heart breaks for what they suffered. It must have been horrendous for their loved-ones to live with. I doubt the Polands ever intended for them to live - their faces were uncovered throughout the heist, they knew the two guards could identify them. Michael Poland was a psychopath, the fact he carried a garrote showed chilling premeditation. I think he had killed before, and enjoyed the power trip. His younger brother Patrick should never have gone along with him. A shame Michael was executed first - he deserved to see his brother killed first, then await his turn. He never owned what he had done, or showed any remorse. I will say, this horrific crime deserved no mercy, but at least Patrick had sufficient humanity to finally tell the truth to police, and express regret as he was executed. These reconstructions are superbly well done. Amazing that two security guards could be abducted in broad daylight on a busy road, in front of umpteen motorists, and not one of them thought to call the police! I wonder if that could happen today, now everyone carries a cellphone?
It does happen today with persons turning a blind eye

01:51:00 They were so dumb they jumped into the wrong truck. They could have just checked if it had a number plate rubber banded over😂
I wonder if the movie Heat is loosely based on the armoured truck case. It sounds somewhat similar to the plot. Also, if anyone is looking for a wicked movie to watch, that’s the one!!
I don't understand why Michael Poland would sign for burlap bags and a taser, as Mark Harris but, signed his real name to the tow... the thing that could link him to the guards' bodies. But, I'm glad he did.
the tow guys prolly the only one that asked for ID 🤷♀️ that’s my guess anyway
They should add the greatest heist of the century How the grinch stole Christmas 🎄
cute! 🌲 lol
why i am feeling sleepy 😪
Who else was surprised when Lake Mead got really low and they didn't find more umm unalive people.
Yeah that was quite sad when the dead victims phone started ringing and all the detectives stopped and staring at him like Oh no.. that's most likely his wife calling him wondering why he wasn't home yet from work? and it's one of them that has to go tell her or them.
It's amazing they wouldn't destroy and clean up all evidence right away. Gloves in the car? Common guys, burn the cloths you used during the heist
Amateurs
They should burn the clothes also.
And the FBI trying to convince us that the car was not search when they found it in his friend house because they did not have the permission 🤦🏾♂️
@@rottweilerfun9520 what's surprising is that they didn't burn the clothes
And signing the tow receipt with the same name as the boat receipt? Couldn't think quick...Jim gooding..... See I just made that me up instantly...😄
Bro the sound from the last one merges with the voices on the headphone I swear I'm missing 2 words out of each sentence I can hear 😢
Wtf is with the service station owner just waiting to be called or played a visit? His phone broken?
This happen in the 1970s.
It amazes me how hard police will work on these bbank heist but homeless person murdered will be ignored
the system works for the oligarchs, they own it
Yep ur right
They also work hard when one of their own has been attacked too.
It's called a civilized society. Go to a 3rd world country and ask for a better judicial system.
you can thank your local/county and/or state police for that. the fbi only has jurisdiction over so much (thank heavens tbh how much you want the federal government policing your community?)
Why did the boat need sirens 😂😂😂
1 thing i took from this video is that after all these years,school buses really haven't changed at all.😂😂😂
if i had a nickel for every time a heist occurred in the state of Arizona involving an armored van disappearing, I’d only have two nickels but it’s weird that happened twice.
This was giving gta5 Vegas 😂
Saaame, makes me want to play it again. Great game, very criminally educational too lol
Everyone in this movie sounds like Mark Wahlberg. Pretty cool.
Yes its happen every day😢
That really sucks about the poor guards. Unbelievable sad. Glad those 53:09 two guys got death.
They “need real evidence to convict in federal court” oh how things have changed 😂
Keith, I was scrolling and checking the comments, and I stopped by yours, it seems you know something about the federal system? So true, there was a time they have to produce hard or real evidence to arrest and convict in federal court, but not anymore. If only the American people would learn the majority of folks inside were convicted of conspiracy charges and were either urged, persuaded, or enticed. or threatened by federal agents to commit the conspiracy. The one and only person that I know that beat the conspiracy charges was Mr. John Delorean. Keith, remember him?
Interesting
thank you for sharing
They said I should keep my comment nice, that only makes me not want to be polite 🤣
I'm sorry the security guards were murdered. I feel even more sorry that it took many times the amount stolen to finally get a conviction of the guys who murdered the guards. I'm very glad the FBI agent didn't go to sleep while explaining the case. I can understand why taxes are so much after watching this.
@.5d... '... Glad the FBI agent didn't fall asleep explaining the case' 😂🤣 Its very unfortunate though the fate of the guards... I wonder how different their circumstances would have turned up should they have stuck with the company policy& not open the door for the thugs🤔 Amazing how much money is spent to manage crime.... Maybe if crime was low more money would be allocated to development?! 🤔
Great to also improve english ❤
I’m Wondering Why People Sign Up For Security / Corrections / Law Enforcement And Get Hurt By Design! Turkeys& Sitting Ducks! Good Luck Chuck!
39:31 Arizona prosecutor prioritizes his career over justice while 39:52 US attorney prioritizes justice to his career& comfort.... Amazing🤔!
O Jesus come for your world quick
damn they didn’t give Patrick Poland a deal for no death sentence in exchange for his confession? that’s brutal or his lawyer sucked!
Forensic Files is like a short story/mystery; solved in 20 minutes. FBI Files is like more of a novel; slow burn. And they are both Fuking Great aren't they?
