My name is Matthew B. Cox and I’m a con man. I completed a lengthy prison sentence for a variety of bank fraud related charges, and I’m 100 percent guilty of them all. I heard an outrageous amount of stories. Some intrigued me and some didn’t. I tend to focus on the more unique, clever, and bizarre true crime stories.

  • Good podcast

    Cox is total scumbag making it difficult for normal people to get a mortgage. I don’t understand the criminal mindset. The podcast is great. But being a criminal is not badge of honor.

The Wild Rise, Fall, and Reinvention of a Rapper Turned Politician
Q: How did you approach rebuilding your life after prison, especially in terms of education and work?

The Wild Rise, Fall, and Reinvention of a Rapper Turned Politician
Q: What was the turning point that helped you decide to change your life after being incarcerated?
The first day in jail when I decided I didn't want to live that life anymore; realizing drugs caused all my problems was the catalyst that motivated me to seek treatment and pursue a different path.
The Wild Rise, Fall, and Reinvention of a Rapper Turned Politician
Q: Can you explain what it felt like during your manic episodes and how you communicated those beliefs to others?
During manic episodes I believed I was the Messiah and preached those beliefs to people, sometimes addressing strangers with irrational messages; this stemmed from bipolar disorder and sleep deprivation, and I later recognized these episodes as symptoms rather than truths.
