Or the crew who, in 1980, drilled through the wall of a Medford medical office to reach the vault of a neighboring bank and liberate some $10 million in cash and valuables.
All of them went to prison for bank robbery, despite meticulous plans that sometimes took years to hatch. Massachusetts has a reputation as a hotbed for ambitious and carefully crafted bank heists.
But bank robbery is a notoriously difficult crime to get away with; even the most carefully laid plans often go awry. That’s what makes the Nov. 17 robbery of the Rockland Trust bank on Martha’s Vineyard so striking.
