The Ghost Plane: The Marcus Schrenker Escape

June 19, 2026 · 35 min

Show notes

How far would you go to escape the consequences of your own greed?

What happens when a high-flying millionaire's house of cards finally begins to collapse? He vanishes into thin air.

Marcus Schrenker had it all: private planes, luxury sports cars, and a massive French chateau. As a trusted financial advisor, he carved out a highly exclusive niche catering to the "cream of the crop," managing the retirement portfolios of commercial Delta Air Lines pilots. But behind the facade of luxury, Schrenker was secretly draining their life savings through deceptive financial schemes and a completely fabricated foreign currency fund. Check out this action-packed episode hosted by Ashley and Ricky of Crime Salad.
