It was a shortish walk across a precinct. Anyone could have figured out what time and day the crossing happened, and yet nothing ever happened. I had the prestigious 'job' of accompanying Mort, the previous boss many times. It was me and him, he had little choice.
If the chain snapped, the cash was spoiled. That was the idea.
Sounds like a not very worthwhile heist... And probably not much of a reward if successful!
