The Worst (or Best?) Kidnapping Plan of All Time

from Truly Unreal · host James Lee Hernandez

It's 1963. You're 23, broke, addicted to painkillers, and your stock trading career just imploded. But then God speaks to you through your car radio and tells you to kidnap someone. So naturally, you pick Frank Sinatra's son (Frank Sinatra Jr.), gather a team with zero experience, and head to a Nevada casino to pose as fake delivery guys.What could go wrong? This week, comedian and actress Lauren Holt (SNL, Barbie, Curb Your Enthusiasm, The Comeback) steps into the shoes of Barry Keenan, the man behind one of the most bizarre, delusional, and weirdly polite kidnapping plots in American history. Follow us!
