Pretty interesting. Fun fact, $30M+ in White Collar crime only gets you 2 years at Club Fed lol.

looking back on this shit, mcmillions is such a better docu and it's only 1 of 6 so far.

I was thinking about this today because I rewatched the first episode with GF to show her the FBI guy. I was trying to figure out why it's so much better than these other true crime stories... I came up with:

1. It's HBO, not fucking Netflix
2. It's presenting this just as a retelling of the incidents, it's not trying to make one side (Uncle Jerry) look innocent just to create "interest"
3. It's featuring badass trained FBI detectives who did a genius investigation to figure out where the crime is, not some pathetic cat-loving facebook losers

This is great, but how are they going to get 6 episodes out of this?

The second episode was very slow and dragged a lot. Not nearly as much info or paced as well as the first episode.

So that's how they turn it into 6 episodes I guess.

That chick was awesome, just a caricature of a mob boss wife. Her mannerisms and the answers (or lack there of) were great. And the dude’s brother seemed just as casual about everything.

Not going to spoil anything as I read the news article a few years ago when it broke. Crazy story.

Does anyone go to jail? All these winners seems like nothing happened to them. I wonder if they testify for immunity.

i mean, you can obviously spoil it for yourself and just google any article, but as far as us who just watch it week by week. doesn't seem like it, the fucking i-talians have zero remorse

lol yeah my brain wasn't even thinking about googling. For some reason I think this is some ground breaking shit because I never even knew the monopoly scam was a thing until this came out.

I read a super super long article about this years ago and still roughly remember how it went, might have to give this documentary a watch.
