Santa Claus Bank Robbery: Holiday Bonus
32:21 Share

Two days before Christmas in 1927, the town of Cisco, Texas, was abuzz with holiday cheer. Little children ran to tell Santa about the presents they wanted, but Santa passed them on by. He had a different agenda. This holiday story has many twists, turns and old West vigilantism. Grab yourself a cup of hot cocoa and enjoy this crime-filled Christmas treat!Episode Sources: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santa_Claus_Bank_Robbery) http://www.texasescapes.com/MaggieVanOstrand/The-Night-the-Posse-Chased-Santa.htm https://archive.org/stream/StartlingDetectiveMar1930#page/n13/mode/2up) https://casefilepodcast.com/case-135-the-santa-claus-bank-robbery/ https://www.tshaonline.org/handbook/entries/santa-claus-bank-robbery) https://www.newspapers.com/image/639001210 https://www.newspapers.com/image/639001227) https://www.newspapers.com/image/639001297/?terms=Marshall%20Ratliff&match=1 https://thetexan.news/the-santa-who-tried-to-steal-christmas-a-story-of-a-failed-texas-bank-robbery/) https://www.thriftbooks.com/w/the-santa-claus-bank-robbery-ac-greene-series-no-1_ac-greene/826499/item/42477122/?mkwid=%7cdc&pcrid=449000672318&pkw=&pmt=&slid=&plc=&pgrid=111228922064&ptaid=pla-927761182503&gclid=Cj0KCQiA2af-BRDzARIsAIVQUOf15o147bRc1J3l4d_3_b019WgdlhtnWRmQjSh5uqoMUNxcZKtwcdsaAqHTEALw_wcB#idiq=42477122&edition=43352318 https://www.mentalfloss.com/article/609749/santa-claus-bank-robbery-1927)Want to advertise or sponsor our show?
