- CNN's Randi Kaye tells the incredible story of a major art heist that's gone unresolved for more than two decades. More from CNN at www.cnn.com/

The only concrete information the FBI has for almost half century of their highest degree of investigations about this heist is that these artworks are "indeed missing"
Twins identical cop number one cop 2 identical twins and they have brothers so there's four quadruples Douglas Warren 5
That’s a small reward for artwork that is worth almost a billion at this point. Imagine what they’d be worth if they were actually recovered
pathetic security for such masterpieces....shame on the board of directors and their thrifty notion of security, pitiful.
It was the 1990's. Boston was a very violent and dangerous place. Nobody paid attention to the museum security there were bigger things going on.
Actually, the museum knew it needed to improve the security and had started making plans to improve but they were late.
The real crime is Rick's hair.
He never left that day in his mind. He is stuck in time.
Never even heard about this case until the netflix series. Hopefully someone who can help also sees the show.
"Maybe they died or got killed, if they were a 'bad' person" 😂😂
Sign of the culture. "Bad" people get killed in America OK. It just depends on who decides if you are "bad"...😶
😂
This story is 10 years ago and the art is still missing.
Who else is here from netflix?
me:))
So, this video/report was posted over 3 yrs ago. What's happened since?
They paying some $10 million forever can return the art
Nothing really. They arrest everyone they think did it for crimes not related.
Netflix documentary out now.
One of these works of art is in the Syrian Presidential Palace’s private collection in Damascus
Unlikely
Interesting! Do you have a picture to comfirm that?
I also believe that if the art is not ashes at this point- some Arabs have the paintings way out in the desert
why does everyone doubt? if this man has proof let it be known. if he doesnt then hack into his email and post the nude pics he takes of his young son
The thieves must have had an intimate knowledge of the layout of the museum, as well as knowledge of the security measures - did police check out any security guards who left their jobs at the Gardner Museum in the preceding few months?
Of course they did
@@slericls8 It's a bit moronic to trust the police, I think. But that's just me.
@@animaladvocate2185 oh yeah for sure. I hate police too.
I can only find info on the security guard that buzzed the robbers in. Nothing about the other security guard or previous security guards.
I’m pretty sure the FBI is investigating this and not the local PD lol
@@slericls8 From the getgo the guards were strongly suspected of being involved and were exhaustively investigated, accused & interrogated several times, surveilled & followed for years and almost certainly are still under observation to this day for any evidence of cash beyond their means
curly was in on it
Nyuk Nyuk Nyuk
Nope
100 percent
They said that investigators have SEEN the artworks. It's 2021 and Netflix have just made a documentary about the robbery and the paintings, which we still don't have. So?
So??? What's your question?
@@slericls8 My question is implied in my comment.
@@animaladvocate2185 not really So? Isn't a question.
The paintings haven't been recovered. Until then nothing new. They are bringing public attention to an old case that could possibly help.
@@slericls8 Jeez, enough. My point is that, in the video, the police say that have seen the paintings. And my point is, if the police have seen the paintings, why haven't they been recovered?
@@animaladvocate2185 confirmed sightings... "like i saw bigfoot here..." well he's not here anymore, he's somewhere else, like the paintings.
Then you add in the facts that on camera the security guard let an unidentified individual into the gallery a few hours earlier Or the fact that one painting was in a room that during the robbery itself no one went into the only person that the alarm system shows going into that room was the security guard during an earlier security check that same night. On top of that this was without a doubt a robbery done by amateurs, not by an art thief considering the paintings were cut out of their frames (slash and grab).which is even more obvious when you add in the fact that more expensive paintings were left behind and the seemingly random choices of which painting to take.
He buzzed in the deputy director of security the night before.
Rick did admit to letting friends in on new years to party.
it wasnt done by a pro? that conclusion you reached based on the fact that 30 years later they havent been caught? are you ok bro?
plot twist, the museum is even more valuable now due to being involved in such an infamous crime.
Plot Twist As Christians We Took Our Heritage Before it was Destroyed .Jesus says It Was Priceless
@@joannemckinnon4622
You are a total nutcase.
@@joannemckinnon4622(eye roll)
The only thing I find more odious than the private collector of priceless artwork is the thief of priceless artwork.
Sophistication finds you shallow and repulsive aswell.
Whoever the thieves are, obviously got away with it, so....
@@tangemclemore177 Bobby Luisi moved that art from Boston to Philadelphia in the late 90's when he was running with the South Philly mafia, Local Philly mafia clubhouse loose talk claims that the art was in the trunk of a stolen Lamborghini from Cleveland that was in a storage unit off of Passyunk Avenue, But was luckily removed before the feds found the car.
Where are they?
Dorchester is nothing to dismiss
This video doesn't say who sighted the art, when, where, how, nor why. So we're in at least single heresay territory if not double or triple heresay (which is presumptively unreliable for good reason).
Yea it's fake news CNN
Yes. The only reason the FBI said there was a confirmed sighting was to refresh the public with the case and for the public to see the stolen pieces hopefully to jar a memory in someone to recognize them. This was confirmed by former agents.
This place had no security cameras 😳
It did have security cameras, but the thieves took the tapes and destroyed them
@@johndelorean7353 only outside
wasn't there a video released that showed rick letting a stranger into the museum after it had closed?
yep on the night before the heist
Yeah his drug dealer to buy weed. I don't blame him.
No one of the employers came forward and said the guy in the video was someone that worked there, like one of the head ppl in charge
Yea and that video was released by the FBI in 2015, in other words 25 years later after the heist and no one at the time knew who it was until it was said it was the director from the Garden museum that came in that might. The FBI messed it all up, they were no help to begin with, they were on chasing big dogs Mafia people in 1990 and gave little importance to the heist at the time, said by the general staff of the museum themselves, so go figure
Abath bears a remarkable likeness to self portraits of Rembrandt. ...coincidence?
Another case for cc tinsley
Glad brought me here lol
How do you go to prison after this heist? You are set for a lavish life?
Art pieces
Yes
😢
Check out the new documentary on Netflix about this, it’s called “this is a robbery” it’s awesome!
That's why I'm now looking up art heists. Lol
@@slericls8 lol same!
awesome is a stretch, it was ok
¿What’s the point ?
If the paintings 🖼 hasn’t been recovered!
You guys can try and play Rick out to be a good innocent guy.. I still believe he was in on the whole thing. Pretty funny how that panic button never got hit... certainly wasn't because he didn't have time, lol.
If I was an art thief, I would just keep them in my house. Value over money.
One piece in theory is said to be.
I have solved the heist. But the museum doesn't wana pay for the information.
And my cousins of Vanderbilt
What very bad people and they probably sold the art and lived a low profile to not be noticed with lots of money.
From what I understand, protocol was for no one to be let in. Including police. Inside job! 100%.
Thomas crown affair
My mom's a gardner
thief!
The artwork is probably hanging in CNN's lunchroom.
💔 You had one job, protect the paintings. People suck!
My family had a burglary in the mid-80’’s in center city Philadelphia where a watercolor was stolen. Might not had been worth much then however today it would be worth thousands. I’d like to know where this is so my mom can rest easy knowing she got her artwork back. It may not have been an art museum however it was still stolen Art and needed to be fenced somewhere in Philadelphia or the surrounding area. The Artist was Howard Watson and it was a watercolor in old city on race street looking out race towards the Ben Franklin bridge. My Dad was taught art in Philly and traveled to many art shows with Howard. My Dad made a deal with Howard that if he couldn’t sell the picture that my Dad could make payments towards it. Howard agreed.....
In the age of technology this should be that difficult to locate.
RICK ABATH STOLE IT
It's possible that it's a sentimental theft, not by the nouveau riche because that's what they brag about. The client may be a woman, because women remember longer and are vengeful. 13 things are stolen, one is important, 12 are stolen to divert attention from this one. They should be interested in who owned the stolen objects in front of the museum. Under what circumstances were they acquired by the museum?
No surprise this happened in Boston, because it's a town of loud criminals and no class people who fight all the time. The locals I mean, not people who go to Harvard.
harvard is democrat scum land. piss ya self commie dickhead
