The "Pizza Bomber"

I remember first seeing this on the news, desperately trying to make sense of... any of it! A supposedly unwilling bank robber with a bomb, locked around his neck, that he couldn't get off, put there by persons unknown, which was about to go off, while he repeatedly begged anyone to help, and the only thing anyone did- was point guns at him! Until it finally, in fact, detonated and killed him- while they still pointed guns at his dead body!

And as crazy, bizarre and irrational as that whole insane scenario was- what actually led up to it, was every bit as inexplicably surreal as its culmination. What are the odds of such an improbable cast of unlikely bat shit crazy characters coalescing in the midst of strip mall America and concocting such a ludicrously criminal act that purposely results in the senseless demise of some poor, hapless soul? 

A must watch, if only to ask- what have you learned???

  1. This was just a crazy tale! And I believe that Brian Wells was willing at first when he thought that it was a fake bomb. I also don't understand police pointing guns at the man after he pretty much had a hole blown open in his chest from that bomb. Netflix has really been stepping up in their documentaries, first with Wild Wild Country, now this!
