As the trial nears, many of the defendants take plea deals and cooperate with the government, but George Chandler and a handful of others decide to fight to prove their innocence. When a previously uncooperative Jerome “Jerry” Jacobson takes the stand, the remaining details of how he pulled off his scheme are disclosed. Almost twenty years later, new information is revealed, and those involved – from “winners”, to co-conspirators, to family members and government officials – reflect on what they learned, their regrets and the ripple effects that one man’s greed had on so many people nationwide.

Directed by Brian Lazarte and James Lee Hernandez.
