Revealed on his deathbed: Father's secret life as a fugitive bank robber

Thomas Randele, a car salesman and golf pro in Massachusetts, revealed on his deathbed that he was a fugitive who had robbed a bank in Ohio over 50 years ago. His real name was Theodore Conrad, and he had stolen $215,000 from the bank. His daughter, Ashley Randele, discovered his secret after Googling his name and finding numerous articles about his past. Conrad had been obsessed with the movie "The Thomas Crown Affair," which inspired his heist. After his confession, Ashley began searching for answers about her father's past and has since started a podcast to explore his life as both a bank robber and a loving husband and father. US Marshals showed up at her door after her father's death, having received a tip that he was likely Conrad.
