Evil Genius

If you’re a fan of true-crime TV sagas, you may already know the story of Erie, Pennsylvania’s so-called “pizza bomber” case. In 2003, a man named Brian Wells walked into an Erie bank with a cane and what appeared to be a bomb cuffed to his neck. He claimed he was following the instructions provided in a detailed note leading him to a series of locations, at the end of which he’d get the bomb removed. Instead, he ended up in a standoff with state police, who weren’t necessarily sure if the bomb was even real. Before the bomb squad could arrive, with a variety of cameras watching, the device went off. It was very real. Wells was killed without reaching the end of a weirdly elaborate scavenger hunt, without being able to give any answers about the person or people who made him part of this heist, without anybody knowing when, exactly, his involvement began.Evil Genius Season 1 Download.

For the better part of two episodes, Evil Genius is an outlandish version of the sort of journalistic crime exposé you’d see on Dateline or 48 Hours, a better sourced version of the sort of extreme crime tale you might get on Investigation Discovery or the rebranded Oxygen. The episodes’ meat and potatoes are interviews with most of the primary law enforcement figures on the case, including the FBI and ATF agents in charge, the county coroner and at least one local reporter who covered the case.Evil Genius: The True Story of America’s Most Diabolical Bank Heist.

Providing spice is an eccentric cast of suspects and tangential characters — an assortment of incarcerated henchmen, crackheads, prostitutes and self-described masterminds, seemingly all living in rundown apartments last cleaned in the ’80s. Towering over the entire mystery is Marjorie Diehl-Armstrong, brilliant and bipolar, a terrifying woman with tractor-beam eyes and more than a few suspicious deaths floating amid her past.
