In 1974, a quiet Monday morning in Marietta, Ga., turned chaotic when a bank vault revealed a tunnel, a blast site, and a daring robbery straight out of a movie. Robbery, Inc. Episode 1: An Explosive Story unearths the mystery of the Cobb Exchange Bank heist and introduces the legend of a master thief whose true identity is just beginning to unfold.
In April 1974, a group of thieves tunneled beneath Roswell Street in Marietta, Georgia, and blasted their way into the Cobb Exchange Bank vault—only to be mocked for escaping with just $1,000. But as investigators dug deeper, they uncovered a far bigger mystery and the story of a career bank robber whose daring heists and prison escapes made him a legend. This is Robbery, Inc. from Georgia Public Broadcasting and the Marietta Daily Journal.
