Four students hatched a plan to steal some very rare books and it became known as the Transylvania University heist in 2004, or Transy Book Heist. The plan was to break into the school's Special Collection in the Rare Books Room, swipe the books and sell them for millions of dollars….easy peasy. But of course things didn't quite go all Oceans 11, but the heist did inspire its own docu-movie!

A mail carrier in trouble with his supervisors opened fire in a crowded post office on August 21st 1986, killing 14 workers and injuring 7 others before killing himself with a bullet in the head. The police said the carrier, Patrick Henry Sherrill, of Oklahoma City, burst into post office around 6:45 A.M., pulled at least three pistols from a mail pouch and, without a word, started shooting at his fellow employees.
It was the nation's worst shooting since July 18, 1984, when 21 people, including the gunman, died at a McDonald's restaurant in San Ysidro, California, and it helped coin the term "going postal".

Lauren Agee was a 21 year old from Tennessee who was found dead in a cove at Centre Hill Lake in Nashville. It was Wakefest (wakeboarding festival centered around beer and partying) on the weekend of July 25th to 27th, 2015. The official file reads: that, after consuming a large quantity of alcohol, Lauren fell off the cliffside where she was camping with friends and into the water below. Her cause of death was blunt force trauma with possible drowning.” There ya go, case closed, don't worry about the weird bruising, strong possibility of rape, and the fact that her friends seemed completely unfazed by her death….Nope, the authorities have listed her case as "death due to misadventure", stating they do not believe any foul play was involved….we strongly disagree.

It was a crime that united two nations…in despair. The case of Tatsuya Ichihashi and his victim Lindsay Hawker. This case reached nationwide status when, after killing Hawker, Tatsuya went on the run, even obtaining plastic surgery and hiding in a WW2 bunker to avoid detection, and it would take police years to catch him….2 and a half to be exact.

The Kray twins Ronnie and Reggie, and their lesser known brother Charlie, ran the streets of London's East End in the 1960s — and they took quite a bit of inspiration from their American organized crime counterparts. Ronnie and Reggie Kray, are arguably the most infamous criminals in London’s gangster history.

Axel Rudakubana was convicted of the murders of three girls at a Taylor Swift-themed dance studio in Southport, Wales. He was said to be an introvert with a background in musical theatre. But that's not all...By the time he carried out the brutal murders of three young girls, he was well known to police, anti-extremism authorities including “Prevent” and a number of other public agencies. The government says more than a few opportunities were missed to stop him from turning his dark obsessions into a reality. This is what we know about his journey to becoming a killer - and whether it could have been Prevent-ed.
