The Making of a Swindler, Part 2

It’s clear that Simon is a criminal mastermind. But that level of skill requires practice, and a certain amount of pathology. In this episode, Felicity and Bernadette try to understand the mind – and methods – of the Swindler. We hear from an old friend - patient zero if you like - who knew Simon before he was The Prince of Diamonds.

The Making of a Swindler is a companion to the documentary, The Tinder Swindler, now on Netflix.

The Making of A Swindler is produced by RAW and NETFLIX.
