Im from Massachusetts but live half a world away. Hearing this guy talk about ahmid cahs, etc. warms my heart.
I lived in fitchburg where the second robbery happened until 96 before moving to wv
I no longer have a car. It’s my caaaaahhhh!
I grew up in Methuen
I'm from Braintree. I watched it for the accents. "Now that's how you drive a fawkin cahh".
People from Massachusetts should come with subtitles.
The first heist was totally clean and they got away with it but greed made them do it again and blow it.
Greed’ll get ya!
nahhh man, it was the pleasure of planning & stalking coupled with the adrenaline rush of carrying it out.
Someone snitched too
@@alexandrugeorgescu6366 naw bro. It was the male bonding of doing a heist with your best friends.
Well you know for me, the action is the juice. I’m in.
Lol I love watching these when I'm struggling to pay my rent and am a month behind.
Haha trust me it really be like that brother 😂😂😂
Don't rob, its the worst crime u can commit, huge risk small reward. Every robbin crew i new growing up, is either dead, or in prison for ever. If u are struggling, selling drugs is the easiest route. Find 4 ppl who always have money and are solid, and jst serve them. Stay in the shadows, and never get greedy. I don't condone any criminal actions, but robbery is the dumbest thing to do when your desperate. It's crash test dummy type shit. Your destroying your life. And remember, you get outta life what you put into life
Doing your homework eh.
@@illusive1181 Facts brodie, my cousin robbed a bank & he doing big time rn it’s not worth it AT ALL you will be caught 💯
Lol
You go through all this trouble to not get caught. Then you ask a junkie to supply you stolen cars😂
Never trust a junkie, even the clean looking ones that have jobs, wives, husbands & kids.
To quote Gus Fring....you can never trust a drug addict..
Q@@HeyyMissCarter
The trooper didn’t believe them and gave them a ticket… 😂😂😂
That’s Massholechussetts for ya!
@@jamiemoffatt50 Go get the papers, get the papers.
What’s up, guy
I hope the bank paid their ticket
65 years for someone saying they seen him driving?????? Eye witness testimony has been proven to be unreliable
That is totally insane!!!
Yeah that's a long time. By the way did anyone notice that like their name got changed on UA-cam?
The US justice system is absurd. The cops are corrupt. The juries are comprised of some of the stupidest people on the planet right now. The prisons are privately owned and run entirely for profit. Highest incarceration rate on earth. Need I go on? Trash country = trash judicial system.
no shit
I think the one guy got 65 years at the end of a trial. The others may have agreed to a plea deal before or during trial. 😮
The way you present it to the audience makes it more interesting.
Another great episode, thanks.
by far the best crime show out there
22:15 don't make the poor Boston guy say park the car on camera lol
Hahaha yeah im from that area.. When I moved to California for a few my buddies when we'd drink would ask me to say park the car in the park in the dark...loosely translated "pahk tha cah in tha pahk in tha dahk". ...lol just change the R's to H's I'm from Maine and it gets worse as you go north!
😂💀😂
@@JeepTeriyakithe Kennedy accent
@@JeepTeriyaki😂
The comments really make these worth rewatching😂
Who needs to know that robbing an armored truck is more lucrative then robbing a bank??
God I hate when these shows repeat the same scenes over and over again🤬
2 bad for u and don't watch it at all period

A robbery 60 miles east of Boston? Was the victim a fish?
An armoured fishing boat
Ah good catch.
😂
Wait….
16 miles..not 60 guys. Clean your ears daily tss
@@RM-pg4jsYou clean YOUR ears. Because @ 12:51 even the captions read “at a bank in fitchburg massachusetts about 60 miles east of boston”. Fitchburg is about 60 miles WEST of Boston!
Odd you care so much. You must have absolutely nothing going on in life. It's a 80's tv show. Have you ever made a meaningless mistake? You're a fool🤣🤣@phdtobe
UA-cam is like we know you are having financial issues so we recommend this video.
😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂..isn't that the truth
And they say crime does not pay. It greed that get them caught
Write
Hell of a lesson for would be robbers...a dude not even involved snitched on them, and not only did they prety much do everything perfectly, they didn't end up snitching on themselves - and still got caught. ouch
What a fuckn rat that snitch is...
Main thing I got from this was to not let anyone new in your circle , if everyone play the same roll over and over again like the first time you could never get caught .
Good luck with that lmao
That, and keep your fucking mouth shut.
I’m from Southie, this episode gives fake names and fake photos, but it’s true that Charlestown guys have been taking down trucks for generations. It’s obviously stopped now with modern technology and the amount of time they dish out. Great episode though.
A bank 60 miles east of Boston??? In the Atlantic Ocean??
The fact that they kept to a timeline and left money, shows how sophisticated and professional they are! Unless you have seen the movie called Point Break, or Beverly Hills Cop 2.
are you willing to walk away from everything you love, in 30seconds flat, if you feel the heat around the corner 🎱
Yo I love heat am about to look at it right now Big up's on that 🔥🔥🔥🔥💰💰💰💰💰what would you do for the money👍
Yes in deed

The post commercial recaps are jarring and disrupt the flow.
I don't know why you would go through all that trouble when all you have to do is become a politician then legally steal the money from everyone!!!
I love me some FBI files on a Saturday night Iowa in the house!
Greetings Iowa man
Dublin ireland 🇮🇪
THATS.AWESOME!!IM IN THE EAT COAST,AND I APPROVE THIS MESSAGE!!
It's alright after match of the day on a Saturday night but we get far too many repeats we need some new files to watch 🏴
It's fun to pretend, I sit and go over the plans with them.
Then plot my way of concealing and carefully spending the cash 💸 💰 🤑 😃🤣
Notice that the fbi is informed immediately but if a child is murdered crickets
Believe it or not thats not considered a federal crime- unless it crossed state lines. Thats a state crime
Would love to know how state trooper that ticketed the armored car drivers for speeding reacted when he found out their reason/'excuse' for speeding was real 😂
He must have been very happy with his decision because those guys would have ended up in a mess and probably death
Truth. One night a car hit a dog behind my house and kept going. There were 3 of us outside and we all had a different description of the vehicle. That was my exact thought, that this proves eye witnesses to be unreliable.
Never knew the movie Heat was a true crime story 😂
The amount of resources the FBI spends when a corporation gets robbed vs your average citizen shows who they are really here to protect.
weird comment considering most of the fbi files episodes concern murderers and rapists
strange comment since FBI aren't actually cops and only deal with Federal crime
@@oskArtist You missed the point have a seat sir
@@oskArtist he said “ROBBED” instead of other crimes for a reason
It’s called “jurisdiction.” The FBI investigates violation of federal law. A home burglary is ‘not’ a violation of federal law and therefore the FBI won’t be investigating it. Federally insured banks do fall under federal law and therefore the FBI investigates. Crimes that also cross state lines are usually investigated by the FBI. The FBI spends huge amounts of resources to solve kidnappings and serial killers and terrorists acts as well as hundreds of other federal crimes.
Im watching these when I cant sleep 😀
Ik me 2
Thank god the camera man was there to catch them
Great Job on behalf of the FBI and Law Enforcement Agencies. I would be far more impressed if the FBI and Law Enforcement agencies concerned put the same effort into catching, prosecuting, jailing and confiscating the criminal gains of the real bank robbers in Wall Street.
Indeed, that and the criminal gains of the fraudsters in politics
That’s never going to happen. Steal some food so you can eat and they lock you up But steal a COUNTRYS resources and kill millions of innocent people including children and they make you a sir. BLAIR ???
F The FBI Corrupt Pigs
They were put there to rob the people the. Stupid
So true.
Former head of the FBI gets me every time
why? cuz it sounds cool?
@@mycrazylife408 No obviously cuz he's "former" he got fired after all this happened 😅
Neww Yahhhwwwkkkk Awffice
They say crime does not pay it does but its greed that gets them caught mate. As long as know one gets hurt good luck to them. Because bank rob people everyday.
New Yawk. Don't leave out New Yawk.
Hold up. To prove to my family I'm not the scumbag I used to be. Let me work with the FBI and rat 🐀 on ppl I barely know.. Huh?
It's really is something for a dying man
Right? I’ll be a bigger scumbag than the robbers and the cops, and roll on everybody. Tell me he wasn’t gettin paid……..redemption my a$$. 😂
@@robertclark9he never died , Google him . He was recently arressted for being a drug dealer and weapons possession haha.
He did it for cash, or maybe even got away with something, who knows.
That's exactly what I said 😂
Shout out to the camera guy for putting his life on the line and getting all this! 😮😦😥
🤣🤣🤣🤣😉
You obviously don’t know shit. They obviously have go pros on their chests.
Haha
Lol
Thankfully the camera men didn’t call the cops so we would have this cool ass story.
Bank robbers get 10 / 15 years. Grt away driver 65 years 😂😂😂😂
There is always an informant somewhere. They must know that and yet they still gab to people outside the loop.
The majority of my adult life was spent in the streets and a prison cell and I can tell you with a certainty that when a person commits something so brazen human nature will override the ability to keep your mouth shut in most instances.
I didn't get paid this week,and my recommendations are robberies 😂
Your probably long gone but this funny 😂😂
@@WilliamReed-uj6lm I'm here I got paid
I gotta say,these armmo guys have got huge balls
From Massachusetts, didn’t know this happened!
Same here
These shows are very well done. Always interesting. I lived across the stairwell in Germany from a soldier that stoled the Army payrolls. All the soldiers were upset to say the least. He got caught.
I got chills.
Hahaha, not the best idea to steal someone’s payroll
He got caught. He never seen again. This is how we do in home country.
ARMY not Army
The two sound the same but they are not the same.
ARMY always refers to the MILITARY
as does
NAVY
AIR FORCE
Navy is the name ascribed to a color
Air Force is what comes out of your Hair Dryer and Fan Forced oven
It is clearly written on the uniform and aircraft.
Stay conscious and pay attention to detail
Make sure your brain sees what your eyes are looking at.
You were programmed to be a ZOMBIE and do not realize it
ZOMBIEs have eyes but cannot see - ears and cannot hear
I have another story about 'Across the stairwell' - to my shame. It involved a girl, in Munich, and when I called on her late one night, after more than sufficient beer, she wouldn't let me in. But horny as a butcher's cat after lent, I had to get release . . . the rest is for your imagination.
Is it just me or does the FBI guy at the start look like he should be in the Sopranos?
Lol
@2:28 you cant load an ak with the safety on. You have to take it off safe, then run the charging handle. Amateurs.
The guy said watchinh while hes struggling for. I feel same way. LOL
12:46 60 miles east of Boston is the Atlantic Ocean wtf. Fitchburg is NW of Boston.
Funny how he's driving an armour truck with a ski mask..😂😂
The way you covered this you definitely earned a follower. I also rang the bell
Jim Crawford was a great agent and even greater guy…one of the all time best. Looked like he would do your taxes from his office in a strip mall, but he was the last guy you wanted after you. He had severe neck issues towards the end of his career that would have put most people out on a disability, but he never took a day of or complained at all. Hope your doing well if you see this, Jim
I pressed like button just for uploading this video . It so Informative.
I like how the guard went from white to black with a single gunshot...interesting.
It happens man 😏
Blood loss
I love these “how to” videos.
They are how not to videos
@@scottstafford6309 They are how to if you pay attention. They are how not to if one is at your pathetically low level of intelligence.
@@mr.smitty1993 sorry sir
New Yauk offiiiccce.
Real crime stories are so intriguing, especially in South Boston.
I really enjoyed this apart from the frickin regurgitation of recapping the narration and just slowing things down...
Southie is probably one of the safest neighborhoods in America nowadays
One of the priciest zip codes on the east coast. You could eat off the sidewalks there now. Still a shady element remains but very small in #
this stuff is crazy..i cant believe the nerves people have.
It was a different time before cell phones, nosy neighbors and RICO
Getting a ticket while trying to catch bank robbers hope they didn't have to pay it 😂
Excape is not a word, I believe he's trying to say escape.
🤨Jim "uh uh" Crawford LOL
Love the FBI files watched it from a kid
Love these ones if you need money go get it 💪🏼💪🏼
Pool 9th
I love the computer sound effects lmfao
Would have been good to know about the prosecution - ie they didn't catch them in the act??
I did a little research and the original charge was ‘conspiracy and attempted bank robbery.’ 20 year max sentence.
Thanks!

A snitch messed up the money flow. Snitches need to be dealt with.
Too many of those kind of people around nowadays
I don’t support protecting attempted murderers shooting a guard in the back. Glad someone stopped them
Great narration
I know this is old but one would think you'd have them lights on the back to signal the person behind them to call emergency services like the taxis do.
Something about listening to Bostonians say “park the car” kills me 😂
The Town was based on numerous bank and armored car robbers in Boston area including these ones but mostly from Charlestown. Great movie even better if they left the end (Fenway Park) out of it
The Town was loosely based on a Charlestown crew that in real life also did some jobs in NH. Not Fitchburg.
Town based on 'no name gang' anthony shea, matty mcdonald, stevie burke. Interesting ps on stevie burke he now is leader of Boston/NY car in federal prison. Blood on the razor wire podcast talks all about what a scumbag he is
The scene in the Fenway Park money storage area was actually filmed in my friend's warehouse
I remember watching an armored truck driver filling an atm at my work, and OMG! The bundles of cash this guy had in his bag, that were all large bill was sooo beautiful..
The FBI wouldn't solve any crimes without snitches. It's always an informant giving them information.
FBI has solved a lot of kidnapping cases and worked on countless serial killer cases, neither of which usually involve informants. However, the Bureau does pay its informants well for valuable info and it is certainly worth every penny.
In today's hyper political FBI they do not solve a case without first inventing said case and then entrapping everyone around them to be a part of it.
I bet that speeding ticket was laughed at, then thrown away lol.
dude should've stuck to his original story saying it was stolen
Always blows my mind how meticulous some thieves can be in committing a crime and yet on the other hand be so careless in covering their tracks. Seems like with all criminals. It comes back to one little detail that exposes everything.
Amour Car Employees get very little pay for putting their life on the line.
I taught Art and got great pay with no stress or danger, sometimes life isn't fair.
It's slowly getting better and we're starting to get police level wages now but when I started back in 2018 it was only $12 per hour in North Carolina.

There are so many advertisements it's impossible to enjoy this show.
Ben Afflecks movie "The Town" is based off these string of robberies. The guy Ben played is also on a recent episode of Caught in Providence with the nice old Judge.
That’s bullshit I’m from Southie and you’re wrong that guys full of shit
No he's not.. that dude was not part of the no name gang. This video is about Anthony and the no name gang

Facts
4:00 A million dollars huh? The way this was filmed made it look like they got away with millions. What was in those bags eh? 1 dollar bills? 😂EDIT: 4:55 oh they left bags so they would have def gotten more
Yeah people don't realize how much space money actually takes up, Warren buffet said for certain buisniess deals hes done he's had up to 1 million in cash! And guess what it fit in? A BRIEFCASE! 1 MILLION IN A BRIEFCASE! It was during an interview a reporter asked him what the biggest amount of cash he's carried around before and he said he's carried a million on him plenty of times, the interviewer was stunned and confused asking how much space it took and he said "yeah, it actually just fits in a regular briefcase with 100s, nobody would ever know your walking around with that kinda money and doesn't draw any attention."
Just think if it was in pennies . They'd still be unloading bags .
Watching this reminds me of why I don't watch TV anymore. Half the show is just a recap of before the last commercial break.
Yip. Watched this doing the ironing and left it on but it draws on so much it's unreal !
Me too. No TV because it's BS.
The getaway driver participated in at least one robbery and got 65 years just because he fought his charges and went to trial while all of the others got 10 or 19 years and they were the ones on the scene or actually participating lol. It pays to just plead guilty if they KNOW you did it because you apparently piss them off if you waste the courts time and taxpayer money. That's wild but he has nobody to blame but himself
😢.....u hit da nail on da head Mr. Bullfrog
Something similar happened to my friends father. He was offered 12 years for heroin trafficking, he refused the plea deal and went to trial. He was found guilty and received a 65 year sentence. I was just 10 years old at the time I’m now 43 and my friends dad is still in prison.
46:22 enough weapons for a small war… for about one second 😂
James Murphy the only one who took it to trial got 65 years- and he was only a getaway driver. That’s why you always take a plea deal- especially in a federal case
If u don't use a gun on a federal bank. It's like 4 yrs if caught
@@154g first of all- every time someone robs a bank it’s federal. Secondary- that’s not true. There have been tons of guys who didn’t use a gun and got 20+ years
“Enough weapons to start a small war”
Oh wait you’re serious, let me laugh harder 😂
because that detective said its not worth doing banks anymore as armoured van heists are more lucrative, what he done there is make the job of an armoured vans crew 100 times more dangerous...well done sherlock
It's common knowledge, Dr.Watson.
@@hiseverest9074 ;)
You do know they already know that you dummy lol
It rarely happens in the Boston area any more... they have cops tracking their location at all times. Bank robberies still happen sometimes but it’s always some addict with a note that gets away with 3 grand but gets caught in a couple weeks. Smash and grabs are more popular now in jewelry stores and stores like Louis Vuitton, Gucci,Ferragamo. They have purses worth like 7500 just sitting out lol. So easy to sell too just go to another state and find some rich yuppies.
No he didn't. Only heard about 1 in I dont know how many years. The jewelry one that happe Ed a few months ago amd thay was definitely an inside job.
The movie: "The Town" is pretty accurate on these events.
These stupid armored truck drivers need to be more alert and look around and scope things out before they get out and open the doors. You have to be stupid to pull up an armored car at the bank and open up the doors with a unmarked van sitting in the parking lot waiting for you.
This Isn't exactly how it happened dummy. And this is the 80s. Different times. Mr superman over here thinking he could prevent a robbery
Very informative.❤
i love any robbery from banks or armoured trucks
Seger performed 265 shows in a year, traveling in a van or bus before making it big. He had two albums go platinum in the same day. His catalog is impressive with variety.
Cool to see The Town in real life
Thanks!
Great work ! Now, they are concentrating on Mommies and Daddies in school board meetings. So sad.....
Those guys are punks not agents. Stand!
Pennsylvania Proud
Driver should have never open the door
They are mostly forbidden nowadays.
Im assuming the movie "the town" was based on this true story? Very similar. Boston too...
Setting up and marking your old buddies out isn’t the best way to prove your moral fiber. Why not help the homeless or volunteer or anything besides being a rat?
For real
Exactly. What did the government and these large corporations ever do for the little man? Screw the FDIC and the rich.
Why the commotion about the VIN being destroyed? They're also on the frame/chassis etc. There was a site where you go and search the VIN and it would show you where they are.
I had like a 87 Range Rover and it was on the outside of the frame rail behind the wheel.
Real criminals print money they don't rob it
Talk of a painstaking process. Wow!
Those thieves are Deniro, Kilmer, Machete and Weingro!
Try again... the movie based on this gang is called "The Town" with Ben Affleck and Jeremy Renner!
