Episode description
Throughout the 1980s, 90s, and 2000s, an autistic man named Darius McCollum couldn't stop hijacking trains and buses in the New York City area. After 40 years stealing and driving over 500 trains and going to prison for multiple years, he might be the greatest train thief of all time - and also the most utterly screwed over by the criminal justice system ever.
