Buried Loot (1935)
6/10
1st Crime Does Not Pay
4 September 2021
Bank teller Al Douglas voluntarily confesses to embezzling $200k and losing it all mostly by gambling. He is sentenced for five to ten years. In reality, he had buried the money and he plans to recover it when he is released.

It's the first episode of the Crime Does Not Pay series. It's 19 minutes. It's not great drama but it is interesting especially for this type of short. It may be a warning to would-be criminals but with some resolution, Douglas could have gotten away with it. It's more like crime could pay if you're good enough.
