Episode 309 - OCEAN'S TWO - A Heist Gone Terribly Wrong

In October 2024, two men in Detroit believed they had found the perfect target. A longtime jeweler and pawnbroker whose success made him seem like easy money.

They came prepared with disguises, a stolen truck, and a plan designed to look official. But when they arrived at the home of 72 year old Hussein “Sam” Murray in Rochester Hills, that plan began to collapse.

A story about assumption, desperation, and how the promise of one last score can end in something far darker.
