Podcast appearances and mentions of bill rothstein

This week Professor Adam is bringing out a true crime hall of fame story. The death of Brian Wells/the Pizza Bomber/the Collar Bomber, is one of the most puzzling crimes ever committed. It has everything a true crime story could ever want. A serial killer, a bank robbery, a scavenger hunt, a creepy love story, a conspiracy, and a healthy dose of mental illness. Brian Wells delivered a pizza to a TV tower building on Peach Street in Erie, PA. The next time Brian was seen he was wearing a bulky collar entering the local PNC Bank. He would rob that bank and try to evade police as he followed a scavenger hunt given to him. The hunt was suppose to give him all of the pieces to safely take the explosive collar off of his neck. What he didn't know was the freaks who placed the collar on him never intended on him completing his task. Wells was intercepted by police and ultimately expired under their watch. The hunt for the conspirators would take longer than anyone expected. The cast of creatures who concocted this evil plan would end up turning on each other, but not without a few surprises for the police.

In this episode of The Compendium, I tell Adam the horrifying yet intriguing case of the Pizza Bomber Heist. On August 28, 2003, Brian Wells, a pizza delivery driver in Erie, Pennsylvania, was coerced into robbing a PNC Bank with a bomb locked around his neck as part of a horifying life or death scavenger hunt. This shocking event led investigators into a labyrinth of conspiracies involving Marjorie Diehl-Armstrong and Bill Rothstein. The case, often likened to a real-life "Saw" movie, remains one of the most intricate in FBI history.​ We give you just the Compendium, but if you want more, here are our resources: Death of Brian Wells - Wikipedia​​ Evil Genius: The True Story of America's Most Diabolical Bank Heist (2018) - Directed by Barbara Schroeder Pizza Bomber: The Untold Story of America's Most Shocking Bank Robbery - by Jerry Clark  and Ed Palattella​ The Story Of Brian Wells And The ‘Pizza Bomber' Bank Robbery - allthatsinteresting​ Host & Show Info Hosts: Kyle Risi & Adam Cox About: Kyle and Adam are more than just your hosts, they're your close friends sharing intriguing stories from tales from the darker corners of true crime, the annals of your forgotten history books, and the who's who of incredible people.

Within mere hours of dialing 911, Bill Rothstein found himself in police custody. His claim of enduring weeks of emotional agony was corroborated by the evidence investigators unearthed at his residence: a collection of power tools and supplies of professional grade, akin to the materials used in crafting the notorious collar bomb. In the labyrinth of Bill's personal effects, authorities discovered a handwritten suicide note. Authored in stark black ink, the note conveyed his regret, "To those who cared for or about me," identified a corpse in his freezer as James Roden, and explicitly stated he "did not kill him, nor participate in his death." Intriguingly, the note carried a specific disclaimer: “This has nothing to do with the Wells case.” On today's episode we delve into the enigmatic friend for whom Rothstein was storing a body, and the unsettling aftermath of his 911 call.Listen to PART II of Kinda Murdery's investigation of the, "Pizza Bomber," story now!CALL 888-MURDERY that's 888-687-3379 to share YOUR Kinda Murdery story and inspire and episode of the show!Sources: https://www.ranker.com/list/weirdest-true-stories/patrick-thorntonhttps://pizzabomber.com/timeline-of-pizza-bomber-events/ https://www.goerie.com/story/news/crime/2018/05/01/diehl-armstrong-unique-deadly-criminal/12255559007/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_of_Brian_Wells https://medium.com/p/e4114152b60e https://medium.com/@drhpod/the-pennsylvania-pizza-bomber-6986f451eb3d https://www.goerie.com/story/news/crime/2018/08/28/for-erie-s-diehl-armstrong/984919007/ https://www.tmz.com/2018/05/27/jerry-clark-evil-genius-fbi-agent-denies-hooker-jessica-confession/This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5496890/advertisement

One of the most perplexing bank robberies in American history involved a pizza delivery driver, an elaborate bomb and a scavenger hunt. It took the FBI four years to conclude the bizarre case and even then some are still sceptical about the outcome. For more on this subject I recommend the Netflix documentary 'Evil Genius'. Where Curiosity Killed the Cat differs from the saturated genre of true crime is that it focuses more on mystery than investigation procedural. A lot of the cases covered do not have solid conclusions and its the fascination with the inexplicable that drives this series.Written, narrated and produced by Sam Wallace Artwork by Sophie Wenham Music by Radår Link to his work https://xephem.bandcamp.com/Follow the podcast on our socials!

Join us this week to hear the tale of the Erie Collar Bomber. Loren is bringing you a true crime full of twists, turns, and an evil mastermind who thought a little too highly of themself. This one will keep you on your toes- can you guess who was behind it all? At 2:28 pm on August 28, 2003, a middle-aged pizza deliveryman named Brian Wells walked into a PNC Bank in Erie, Pennsylvania. He had a short cane in his right hand and a strange bulge under the collar of his T-shirt. He handed the teller a note demanding money and revealed that he had a bomb-like device strapped around his neck. Sent on a clue hunt through the city, police swiftly hit a dead end in the strange scavenger hunt. A month later, events took another bizarre turn with a seemingly unrelated phone call from Bill Rothstein. "At 8645 Peach Street, in the garage, there is a frozen body," he told the police dispatcher, referring to his own address. "It's in the freezer." How on earth could these two events be related? You'll have to listen to find out... Wait to Panic is a weekly podcast where two longtime friends take turns sharing stories that just might make your skin crawl.
