@landang7906 That's a different skill set. He's a genius at getting out, not staying out lol. He really blew it that last time. He was legally dead, nobody looking for him but he still managed to screw it up lol I mean, the guy faked aids and his own death, ya gotta give him props for that. That's dedication to the craft right there.
@@nunyafunyuns Totally agree, but what would the use of getting out of prison be if you can't stay out? He should have learned from experience. After several escapes, every body in law enforcement would have his photo with them.
@landang7906 Ya, you would think so. Maybe it's like in the movie, and it really was because he couldn't stay away from his lover, who was also well known to the police. Love makes people do irrational things.
You'd think once he successfully faked his death that he would have left and changed his I.D. and his criminal ways and take on a legit job. All the same I was rooting for him. I always liked the show Masterminds!
1 in billions bro ain’t nobody else walkin the earth that can make the claim that they’ve escaped prison 4x but on the other hand he got caught ever time too 🤦🏾♂️😂
The story is better on the show I almost got away with it. All the clips in this video are from the show he just watched the episode and narrated it himself. The show has the actual criminal telling the story
I completely disagree with the sentence, there's people murdering and sexually abusing who receive less time. He never physically hurt anyone. They should have placed a monitoring device on him after the second escape and kept it on till he served his sentence
I Have only just stumbled across this channel and watched a couple of videos but I must say, your storytelling ability and soothing voice is impeccable. The attention to detail and obvious research is also top notch. I look forward to watching this channel grow immensely as it obviously will and should do so. Thanks again for all of your hard work.
Honestly this guy has an amazing skillset and should have been offered a chance to use it for good in some way. I think he would have done amazingly in the FBI or CIA. It's a shame to let such incredible talent rot in solitary, especially when he never did anything violent
Killing,raping and general abuse in this world 🌍 is a minor thing just people after all. but stealing money from the rich and companies now that's a very bad thing money does make the world go around and for an average Joe to use the system like that, very bad what if more of us did it.
This guy is marvellous,,,if i was the Judge of the Court at that time,,,my last word would be;"the 5th time you are a free man" No more 40yrs imprisonment for you.... Thank you You're Honour,,,for this wonderful thought Sir you're an amazing man..
This guy reminds me of Yoshie Shiratori, another Japanese convict who escaped from prison with the most ingenious methods. I'd say that some prisoners escape not because of prison itself, but to make a statement of the quality of the justice system or how they're treated. Seriously, to put someone in a max-security prison with 23h of solitary confinement is just way too much, especially for someone who never committed a violent crime.
being in a solitary in 23h is like death penalty. imagine going out for just one hour everyday and you're not doing something. this is applicable only to does people who commit serious crime and i felt bad to does people who put on a maximum prison without doing anything. if i will be place in a maximum prison 23h a day in solitary without anyone who can talk. That's why the people on a maximum prison is the hardest people and scary people you will encounter because they have nothing to loss either they will die or they will try to scape no matter what.
That's all fine but, he keeps on making the same mistakes and committing fraud. He needs to stop making the same mistakes. I think he gets a thrill out of this.
Poor man, a hero in my eyes. Exposing the system for what it is. Filled with petty people suffering from complex of inferiority. I hope he is allowed to write a book.
Never did i imagine in my life that this channel existed and i'm glad to the core to know of its existence just now while scrolling up UA-cam resting after a hard days work.

Good lord, if it wasn't for his greed and desire to commit fraud, he easily could've gotten away with it, especially after the 4th time. Unbelievable that he was able to bribe staff members to assist him.
I had thought about giving fake references & have all the calls come to me at several jobs. There was a guy who wanted a job at USPS, so he let the air out of the lady's tire. Somehow he knew what her position was at USPS & which car she drove. He 'helped' her with her flat tire. As gratitude, she asked what she could do. He said he needed a job & he got it.
@@RobbersIQHe was featured on the show I almost got away with it. There are eight seasons of it, not sure which episode or season he was on. Available now on Discovery plus.
The justice system has too much power. This guy never should have gotten such long sentences and ultimately should have been in solitary confinement for his entire sentence of no more than a couple of years.
I gotta admit, he's the smartest criminal in the world but only if he wouldn't be greedy behind money ,he probably would be free an escape capture for the rest of his life💯
Just found your channel and really digging your content. One suggestion, admittedly a selfish one, it'd be nice to have time stamps.

i’m honestly impressed but did anyone else notice how they kept saying “locating him would be difficult “? It’s funny because if you actually analyze the case you’ll notice that finding him is never that hard part, keeping in jail is. the same way he creates these elaborate plans to escape he needs to create a elaborate plan to not get caught . like go off the grid or something my guy, not to the casino🤦🏽♀️😭😂
So, hes been in max prison since 98.' Its only a matter of time before he max his most daring, cunning, escape yet. Lol Hes the type that has the mindset "I'm only in prison because I allow you to keep me here." Lmao
Hi, this is Special Agent Winstead the man you have locked away is Conner Stripling a homeless man who went missing in Biloxi. He agreed to switch his identity for a secure home and health care he is innocent of all charges and must be released immediately! 🥺

@@RobbersIQ But currently, Wikipedia shows that Steven coming out by granting bail. According to you, is it right or wrong? Please! Social people just listen, they want to listen, but not able to listen the deep silence.

I knew a guy here in BC Canada was a prisoner and while working on the highway cleaning ditches stuck his thumb out on the highway as a joke and no shit someone stopped he jumped in and escaped.
Wish you would have told the listeners just how smart he really was. He dyed his 2nd set of prison issued uniform with green markers in his cell. That's how he mimicked the health workers. Still a great story.
It's crazy how ppl can be so smart and cunning when it comes to getting out of prison. But at the same time so stupid when it comes to staying out of the prison. All he had to do was just keep it low-key for a couple of years get a new id/ decent job and he might still be a free man but in the end his greed got the best of him. 😂😂
When someone is this smart , why would you not employ him in a role of prison security ? You offer him a decent wage , and a chance to reform . He could be invaluable , in the system designed to keep murderers , series rapists , and terrorists incarcerated. It's not a reward for being a criminal , it's simply the best use of his obvious skills , in defeating the system .
I Almost Got Away With It, introduced me to Steven Jay Russell. His escapes were very creative and he did it all for his boyfriends. It is funny that this actually turned into a feature film starring Jim Carrey
@@ryanbosma9149 yes. The footage in this video is actually taken from I almost got away with it. I was actually an extra in this documentary, filmed in a Coalinga CA prison, but it was for a Japanese show. It was hilarious watching us all dubbed in Japanese
This guy is genius...when he faked his own death he should've made a fake id and left the usa he would've been good and free forever...damn this guy is good definitely deserves his own movie
This guy is an artist at breaking out, with dedication and perseverance that few inmates ever have. Nobody ever got hurt, he just fooled them all.

Clearly Bot Response for AI content 😅
@@nevergive40 Is the guy even Human who speaks?
I mean, he could've been more determined to just serve those first 6 months
That much solitary turns you into a vegetable he may as well have had a labotomy
This guy's life deserves a TV series. For real
Enjoy my version for now 😅
No it doesn’t
There is a film.... Called "I Love you Philip Morris" (With Jim Carry playing Steven)
Not yet, waiting for his next escape 🤣 -after that
You'd think once he successfully faked his death that he would have left and changed his I.D. and his criminal ways and take on a legit job. All the same I was rooting for him. I always liked the show Masterminds!

Great doco, that 4th escape was pretty incredible.

Truth is he actually is a freeman today , the Steven that’s in jail is no cap fr actually a brain washed man who think he is Steven

There's no law to justify that

Punished with a ridiculous sentence because he outsmarted them and made them look stupid. 4 times lol.

Absolutely insane and incredible what this guy did.
If he escapes again,they should let him be, he will have earned his freedom
Totally agree
And besides he did not kill somebody.

I think he will write a book about all what he did
He already did a long time ago
If a man escape 4 times ! 🤦♂️ he deserves to be free ! 🤷♂️
I sympathized with him because he is really a naive person
Exactly what I say aft the 3 Rd time he should be able to stay free
Yeah like bros just gonna escape again
he also got caught 4 times lol mabey he dont deserve to be free ...
And he was recaptured 4 times in a row. Hes brilliant!!!

He had the opportunity to live free forever , but... 😖
No if it wasn't his homosexuality and love for another man in prison he would've gotten away with it I was in prison when he escaped all 4 times lol
Very stupid to continue a life of crime
Honestly not sure why he didn't slip over the border to Mexico. He could have done most of his fraud from there
Escaping prison requires talent and skills, however not being get caught is next level brain activity.
Carnival. But he wanted big money. Omerta is child's play compared to asking a ride person what time it is
One must say these videos can while away the hours so elegantly whilst being throughly entertained
Wow! He is brilliant as hell! Also legendary!!
Yes but naive
i found myself laughing every time he pulled one over the police department. A true Genius
He is a genius especially with the 4th escape 😂😂...love your Chanel
Thank you 🙏
Dude your collections are addictive. Am spending 23 hours watching them ,and an hour for sleep. Grant me a parole😂😂😂😂
More to come 🙏
He was sentenced to 6 months?
Here's an escape plan, wait about six months and they'll just let you out.
I can’t even escape the house without the wife finding out he’s a magician
You got that right
The wife is smarter than the prison authorities
😂😂😂
Made me snort lol 🤣😂🤣
Lmfao
Awesome Story! I was hoping he would have never been found after the fourth escape.
Me neither
This should be a movie - but so outlandish no one will believe it. Amazing

OMG - this video made me laugh, nobody got injured. What a genius, very clever man indeed. 😊😊😊
I'm really surprised by the harsh jail terms. 40 years for fraud seems unusual.
It’s for trying to escape, the first fraud sentence was 6 months
40 years for escape! wtf

The justice system has too much power. This guy never should have gotten such long sentences and ultimately should have been in solitary confinement for his entire sentence of no more than a couple of years.

Never harmed anyone, highly intelligent, escaped prison FOUR TIMES. Respect 💯
Yeah scam artists don’t hurt anyone.
Never hurt anyone? Nonsense. He is a sociopath. He would make a good politician. All they do is lie and scam us with debt
A friend of mine used to write him in prison. He would send my friend money from his earnings from the movie that was made about him.
Watched this on realtime 4yrs ago but it still stands out
