Well, the cash and watches are part of
-
the official theft report.
-
But I remember when I was writing my Vegas Mob book,
-
I heard about this Michael Scarno.
-
He was an art theft guy,
-
and he had acquired a particular piece of sculpture.
-
A Persian-stone lion.
-
Wow, that's over 2,000 years old.
-
And it was just one of a pair.
-
The other one just sold at a British auction
-
for close to $10 million.
-
Well, that could explain the "why now" of it all.
