The Price of Greed: In September 1997, a team of masked gunmen robbed an armored car facility in Los Angeles, and made off with $18.9 million, the largest takeover heist in U.S. history. An employee believed she recognized the voice of one of the robbers, and FBI agents began conducting surveillance on a former employee of the facility. With only one piece of physical evidence, a fragment of a vehicle taillight, authorities hoped to connect him to the crime, and locate his accomplices.
Caught In The Act: In July 1996, two men entered a pawnshop in Birmingham, Alabama, and ruthlessly murdered the employees. Unbeknownst to the killers, a secret video surveillance camera recorded the shooting. Local police and the FBI released images of the crime to the media, and were quickly able to identify the perpetrators. Now authorities had to find two cold-blooded killers who knew that they were being pursued for murder one.
In Pursuit: In Lincoln County, Nebraska, a fugitive drug dealer engaged in a shootout with state troopers, wounding two of them, and eluded capture after a high-speed chase. Authorities immediately set up a statewide manhunt, connecting the fugitive to a murder in western Nebraska. A chance sighting led FBI agents to a second confrontation with the killer, who was more determined than ever to escape the law.
