Check out what happened in The Brink's Job!
In a bold attempt to elevate his standing as a small-time crook, Tony Pino (played by) orchestrates a series of daring robberies with his trusted five associates. However, their fortunes change dramatically when they stumble upon the startlingly lax security procedures employed by Brink's, a supposed impregnable fortress in Boston's North End. The team seizes the opportunity to steal over $100,000 in cash from a parked armored car, only to realize that this is merely the tip of the iceberg.
Determined to get an inside look at Brink's headquarters, Tony dons a disguise and poses as a spark plug salesman to gain access to the company's supposedly secure premises. What he discovers is nothing short of astonishing: despite its reputation for impenetrable security, Brink's treats its money with reckless abandon, leaving it vulnerable to exploitation.
Feeling emboldened by his discovery, Tony decides to take matters into his own hands and plans a daring heist. He assembles a motley crew of thieves, including the suave Jazz Maffie, the battle-hardened Specs O'Keefe, and his brother-in-law Vinnie, who is more than a little out of his depth. Rounding out the group is Joe McGinnis, an arrogant fence with a liquor store of his own.
On the fateful night of January 17, 1950, the team puts their plan into action, using a neighboring rooftop as an observation platform to scope out their target. With Tony's meticulous planning and execution, they manage to make off with an astonishing haul of over $1.2 million in cash, as well as an additional $1.5 million worth of securities and checks.
The subsequent fallout is nothing short of national embarrassment for Brink's, which has long prided itself on its ability to safeguard valuables. The press dubs the heist "the crime of the century," and even FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover takes a personal interest in tracking down the culprits, establishing a temporary office in Boston to coordinate the investigation.
As the law enforcement machinery begins to churn into high gear, Tony and Mary Pino's home becomes a familiar stop for local authorities, whose visits have become a routine occurrence in their neighborhood. In fact, Mary has grown so accustomed to their presence that she takes it upon herself to cook up a warm meal for them, a gesture of goodwill that is met with gratitude by the officers. Meanwhile, Tony is hauled in for questioning, his indignation at being accused palpable as he protests his innocence.
However, the wheels begin to turn against the gang when McGinnis's brazen declaration sends shockwaves through their ranks. He claims to have destroyed a staggering $50,000 of the loot, insisting that the bills can be traced and thus rendering the majority of their haul worthless. His actions infuriate his cohorts, who demand that he hand over his share, only for McGinnis to defy them with stubborn resolve.
Meanwhile, Specs and Stanley Gusciora embark on a road trip to meet Stanley's "sugar doughnut" in Pittsburgh. Their journey is cut short when they are pulled over by Pennsylvania State Police at Bradford, Pennsylvania, and subsequently arrested for burglary. The consequences of their actions are severe, with both men landing long prison sentences at the Western Penitentiary-Pittsburgh.
As Specs languishes behind bars, his mental state begins to deteriorate under the relentless pressure of interrogation. His only solace comes in the form of demands that his ill sister receive a portion of his cut from the heist. In the end, it is only a matter of time before Specs cracks, confessing to the authorities and unraveling the entire operation.
One by one, the remaining members of the gang are brought to justice, with Tony and Vinnie facing off against their captors in Boston. However, as they await their fate, they are unexpectedly hailed as heroes by the very people they have wronged, their legend growing with each passing day. A particularly enthusiastic teenager approaches a beaming Pino on the streets of Boston, proclaiming him to be "the greatest thief who ever lived!" No one will ever match the audacity and cunning of Tony Pino's Brink's heist, which has cemented his place in the annals of criminal history.
