About

My name is Matthew B. Cox and I’m a con man. I served 13 years in federal prison for a variety of bank fraud related charges, and I’m 100 percent guilty of them all. As you can imagine, I have always been fascinated by true crime; ranging from true crime documentaries to movies. While I was incarcerated, I wrote dozens of my fellow prisoners' true crime stories. Those stories led me to start this YouTube channel. Specifically, the bulk of the content on the channel revolves around me interviewing various criminals about their crimes. I hope to focus on the more unique, clever, and bizarre true crime tales, as opposed to, the more murderous stories that dominate the genre. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do. Want to be a guest?

Video Description

Ellis Cook recounts how he stayed one step ahead of the police in a high-stakes game of cat and mouse that proves sometimes, the smartest one isn't wearing a badge.
