Marcus Schrenker: The Financial Advisor Who Faked His Own Death in a Plane Crash
Om avsnittet
Marcus Schrenker was a successful Indiana financial adviser with a luxury lifestyle, a private plane and a growing list of angry investors. In January 2009, as lawsuits and investigations closed in, Schrenker climbed into the cockpit of his Piper and made a chilling choice: he radioed a distress call, set the plane on a crash course towards Florida, and bailed out with a parachute, apparently hoping the world would believe he had died in the wreck.
In this episode of Crime at Bedtime, we walk step by step through Schrenker’s rise as a high-flying money manager, the complaints that began to surface about his investment schemes, and the night he tried to fake his own death at 25,000 feet. We follow the trail from the abandoned plane to a campsite in Florida, the manhunt that followed, and the fraud charges that finally caught up with him.
If you’re drawn to stories of white-collar crime, elaborate escape plans and con men who think they can outsmart everyone, this is one to settle in with as you drift off to sleep.
