This Week on True Crime News The Podcast: A disguised man enters a Denver bank with a fake name before taking the lives of four unarmed guards and leaving with an estimated $200,000. Authorities identified former police officer James King as the sole suspect, but he was ultimately acquitted by the jury. Did he get away with the city’s deadliest heist, or could the real perpetrator still be out there?
Steven Epstein joins host Ana Garcia.

Very interesting episode!
✨Mr. Steve Epstein is brilliant and fascinating to listen to! I thoroughly enjoyed every moment of this episode as I felt like I was "taken" on a wild ride! Wow, Ana you have some fabulous guests on, but Mr. Epstein was exceptional! Thank you so very much!
Best Wishes,
Maegan💗💗💗
Great interview. I will definitely get the book. I remember this happening and I had read lots about it in the papers that would like to have a view of the full story.
This was a super interesting episode
Please do a story on the Ariana Ptarcinski case ⚖️
Here is what I don't understand: Why did the jury go for an acquittal? If several of the jurors believed that he was guilty, why not just say that you were a hung jury? Then it would have been up to the prosecution to decide to retry the case. It would force them to go back and relook at all of the evidence and make their case stronger for the next time.
Love this episode Ana. Great guest. I'm getting that book.
Based on everything this man said in this episode, the not guilty verdict was correct. All he’s got is illusions of possible behavior. Literally no evidence. Just people saying stuff based off shotty police work. They got tunnel vision. Pure and simple
50:30 imagine if he was smiling or laughing what you would have said then
There was too much reasonable doubt in this case. There was a better suspect in my opinion. I have the book Murders in the Bank Vault, which lays out the evidence and follows the trial. It was however written by King's lawyer, so there may have been some bias. But I think people should read it. This was written back in the era this happened.
27:00 hey genius – if it was James they could ID him by his voice
12:45 a lifelong bachelor – why you smearing him like that.
3:05 why would people be locking their door if a bank was robbed? not a very smart community
2:30 just explained why he wrote the book and then she asks 'why this heist'
Going to study this , and get the book! Great get Ana! Thanks 💜
Yall don’t even know if it was him he was acquitted and yall talking about yall want to know why obviously it wasn’t him
Man killing 4 people for $200,000?! So not worth it! Can an ex life long cop and security kill 4 people and go about the rest of his life business as usual?! I don’t think that happens…
Banks in Denver are open on Sunday?!
Amazing thank you you really are a great storyteller and I love how you ask the right questions in the appropriate order. You kept me right on the edge of my seat to the end. Thank you.
When not everything on the news wasn't propaganda
I was a security guard at that bank and took the day off when this happened. 😮
You can't trust nobody. 💯
Anna, you are a great True Crime host and I watch your videos with the greatest interest. Thank you from Romania 🇹🇩.😅
😅I'm just now realising that I see you every day Ana…🫶💓🤗 Thank goodness!!
Ana hello!!❤
Il mio ragazzo pensava che sarebbe stato romantico portarmi via per un weekend. È stato bello, finché non si è reso conto che avevo messo in valigia più snack che lingerie. Priorità, giusto🔥
My ideal date involves food, laughter, and zero expectations of leaving the couch💝
