I almost never watch Showtime, even though I do have a subscription. But I have a reason to watch now!

As I've occasionally mentioned, I'm an MMA fan. This 4-part documentary is about a former MMA fighter, but is not focused on that career of his. Lee Murray, is "is an English-Moroccan mixed martial arts fighter and criminal. In 2005, his MMA career was cut short after he was stabbed multiple times outside a Mayfair nightclub."

Intense, huh? That's nothing. He was arrested in Rabat, Morocco, in June 2006 and ultimately sentenced to 25 years on 30 November 2010, for masterminding the armed Securitas depot robbery in Kent, England.

And what is the Securitas depot robbery pray tell? It was the heist "where £53,116,760 of cash bank notes belonging to the Bank of England were stolen by Murray and his associates on 22 February 2006. It was the largest known cash robbery in the world during peacetime."
