Robbing banks for the CIA

This is one crazy story about some bank robberies that happened here in NoVA, I haven't seen this mentioned on here. It's sort of a long article but worth reading for the sheer absurdity of what happened.

tl/dr version: a guy gets tricked into robbing banks, he totally believes he's working undercover for the CIA, the cops are baffled, and it turns out to be scam led by some young dude living at home with his Mom.

And the bank robber is let go!

You can't make this stuff up.
