The True Story Behind Channing Tatum’s ‘Roofman’ Character

From Inside Edition.

Leigh Wainscott thought she had found true love when she met Jeffrey Manchester. Manchester told her he worked for the government. In reality, Manchester had just escaped from state prison. He was known as the infamous ‘Rooftop Robber.’ Authorities say he broke into dozens of McDonalds and other fast food restaurants through the roof. Manchester would force workers to hand over cash, before locking them in the freezer. Wainscott did not know who Manchester really was until the FBI told her.
