Did CFO Fake a Robbery of His Credit Union?

Did CFO Fake a Robbery of His Credit Union?

That appears to be the question that has brought the FBI into the case of a $1 million robbery at Achieve Financial Credit Union in Bristol, CT.  CFO Matthew Yussman had claimed that two men broke into his home, strapped a bomb to his chest, and forced him to rob his credit union, but conflicting stories and a failed lie detector test have caused law enforcement to take another look.
