White Man Used Lifelike Black Mask to Evade Arrest in Robberies In December 2010.
After a string of robberies in the Cincinnati, Ohio, area early in 2010, police arrested an African-American man who’d been picked out of a photo line-up by several of the victims and identified by his mother, who thought she recognized her son in a bank surveillance photo shown on TV.
But it turns out the man didn’t rob any banks at all. The real culprit was a white Polish immigrant with a realistic, Hollywood-style mask.
Conrad Zdzierak, 30, pleaded guilty Monday to one act of aggravated robbery and five robberies in Hamilton County Common Pleas Court. He faces up to 35 years in prison and deportation back to Poland.
