Van Gogh Heist
 
If you didn't read this because it wasn't about Covid19, I happen to find it fascinating that art heists are still successfully employed. Thomas Crown Affair stuff going down.

That sucks that they got broken into. I have thoroughly enjoyed the many many museums I have been to in the Netherlands.

Can't remember the year but the Van Gogh got broken into one time when I was in country. They got caught because the get away card had a flat tire.LOL

I believe most heists are paid for by the ultra rich, as the art pieces are rarely ever seen again or heard of. They just go into hiding. It's not like the local corner drug dealer could do that.
