00:00:03,737 --> 00:00:06,473
It's the heist
that shocked the world.
3
00:00:06,573 --> 00:00:08,808
It was brilliant.
Absolutely brilliant.

5
00:00:10,043 --> 00:00:12,112
It's an absolute travesty.
6
00:00:12,212 --> 00:00:14,547
These guys pulled off
the job of the century.
7
00:00:15,548 --> 00:00:17,050
The French crown jewels...
8
00:00:18,251 --> 00:00:20,353
Gold, diamonds.
9
00:00:20,453 --> 00:00:23,356
...worth $100 million...
10
00:00:23,456 --> 00:00:26,026
They took the bling-bling
jewels.
11
00:00:26,126 --> 00:00:27,861
...stolen in broad daylight.
12
00:00:30,597 --> 00:00:32,032
We were scared.
We were terrified.
13
00:00:33,299 --> 00:00:36,136
From the world's
most famous museum.
14
00:00:36,236 --> 00:00:38,605
Your balls better be
pretty big, especially going
15
00:00:38,705 --> 00:00:40,173
into the Louvre.
16
00:00:40,273 --> 00:00:43,276
This is the inside,
minute-by-minute story
17
00:00:43,376 --> 00:00:44,644
of how they did it.
18
00:00:46,079 --> 00:00:47,180
Nobody had a gun.
19
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:48,748
It was a real slap
in the face.
20
00:00:50,116 --> 00:00:52,619
And may have
gotten away with it.
21
00:00:52,719 --> 00:00:54,354
The French police,
they're like bloodhounds.
22
00:00:55,755 --> 00:00:57,857
$102-million question--
23
00:00:58,958 --> 00:00:59,926
Where's the jewels?
24
00:01:12,305 --> 00:01:15,175
The Louvre is the biggest
museum in the world,
25
00:01:15,275 --> 00:01:18,912
covering over
750,000 square feet.
26
00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:24,851
Once a royal palace, it houses
artworks worth billions.
27
00:01:28,855 --> 00:01:33,193
1,300 security cameras
monitor 403 galleries.
28
00:01:36,429 --> 00:01:38,998
Around 9 million visitors
a year pass through
29
00:01:39,099 --> 00:01:40,834
the museum's turnstiles.
30
00:01:40,934 --> 00:01:42,435
My name is Elaine Sciolino.
31
00:01:42,535 --> 00:01:44,671
I'm a lifelong journalist.
32
00:01:44,771 --> 00:01:48,408
I always tell people who are
coming to Paris, "Never go to
33
00:01:48,508 --> 00:01:51,544
"the Louvre on an empty stomach
and with a full bladder because
34
00:01:51,644 --> 00:01:54,848
"you won't find anything good to
eat and you will walk for miles
35
00:01:54,948 --> 00:01:58,151
before you find a toilet."
You've got 400 rooms.
36
00:01:58,251 --> 00:02:00,587
If you were to walk
through every single room,
37
00:02:00,687 --> 00:02:02,322
it would be nine miles.
38
00:02:02,422 --> 00:02:04,023
So you have to go
geared for battle.
39
00:02:09,062 --> 00:02:11,998
At 9 AM, the Louvre opens
its doors to the public.
40
00:02:12,999 --> 00:02:14,567
I'm Frederic Serrier.
41
00:02:14,667 --> 00:02:16,569
I'm a security agent
in the Louvre.
42
00:02:16,669 --> 00:02:18,838
At 9:00
I was welcoming people.
43
00:02:18,938 --> 00:02:20,907
I was checking the tickets.
44
00:02:21,007 --> 00:02:25,245
I love working on Sundays.
Everything is quiet.
45
00:02:25,345 --> 00:02:29,516
Yes, I was not "very happy"
to work, but I was OK.
46
00:02:29,616 --> 00:02:31,651
- I was OK.
- I'm Jake Barker.
47
00:02:31,751 --> 00:02:35,188
I'm Holly Barker, and I am
from Indianapolis, Indiana.
48
00:02:35,288 --> 00:02:38,625
It was a perfect day
for visiting a museum.
49
00:02:38,725 --> 00:02:41,494
It was rainy, overcast.
50
00:02:43,129 --> 00:02:45,131
I wanted to be, you know,
one of the first people
51
00:02:45,231 --> 00:02:46,866
in line.
52
00:02:46,966 --> 00:02:49,402
We were third in line
with about 100 other people.
53
00:02:50,403 --> 00:02:52,405
We started with the Mona Lisa.
54
00:02:52,505 --> 00:02:54,774
So the third thing on our list
was the Apollo Room.
55
00:02:56,176 --> 00:02:58,178
An overlooked exhibit.
56
00:02:58,278 --> 00:03:00,713
It was a miniature
hall of mirrors sort of
57
00:03:00,813 --> 00:03:04,417
mimicking Versailles.
- It was built by Louis XIV.
58
00:03:04,517 --> 00:03:10,190
He wanted to build a wonderful,
gold room to Apollo.
59
00:03:10,290 --> 00:03:13,560
It's the most beautiful
jewelry box in the world.
60
00:03:13,660 --> 00:03:16,062
For over a century,
the Apollo gallery
61
00:03:16,162 --> 00:03:19,566
has been home to France's
remaining crown jewels.
62
00:03:19,666 --> 00:03:22,302
I'm Carol Woolton,
I'm a jewelry expert.
63
00:03:22,402 --> 00:03:26,940
The jewels, they're a connection
to the nation's identity,
64
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:30,043
culture, history, and monarchy.
65
00:03:30,143 --> 00:03:32,345
So, they're incredibly
important artifacts.
66
00:03:33,346 --> 00:03:34,414
What are they worth?
67
00:03:34,514 --> 00:03:37,250
To me, they're worth
the diamonds that are in them.
68
00:03:37,350 --> 00:03:39,385
To France, they're worth
a lot more.
69
00:03:44,691 --> 00:03:46,659
I'm Larry Lawton,
the biggest jewel thief
70
00:03:46,759 --> 00:03:47,827
in the United States.
71
00:03:47,927 --> 00:03:50,463
I robbed over
$18 million in diamonds.
72
00:03:55,668 --> 00:03:58,838
At 9:32, I remember taking
a picture of the Apollo Room.
73
00:03:58,938 --> 00:04:00,506
It's a gorgeous room.
74
00:04:00,607 --> 00:04:05,111
It's these deep colors,
red, blue, paintings,
75
00:04:05,211 --> 00:04:09,916
and then these gorgeous glass
cases in the middle of the room
76
00:04:10,016 --> 00:04:12,485
filled with precious,
royal artifacts.
77
00:04:14,754 --> 00:04:18,925
Outside the gallery window,
a truck has pulled up.
78
00:04:19,025 --> 00:04:21,694
Four men disguised
as construction workers
79
00:04:21,794 --> 00:04:24,163
set cones up on the sidewalk.
80
00:04:24,264 --> 00:04:27,934
The Louvre always has workers
inside the Louvre
81
00:04:28,034 --> 00:04:29,235
and outside the Louvre.
82
00:04:30,403 --> 00:04:32,905
I think they tried to blend in
to the construction
83
00:04:33,006 --> 00:04:35,642
that was taking place
at the Louvre at the time.
84
00:04:35,742 --> 00:04:37,777
Obviously, they had
construction vests.
85
00:04:48,354 --> 00:04:49,989
You got four guys, the truck.
86
00:04:50,089 --> 00:04:52,091
Nobody thinks a thing on the--
87
00:04:52,191 --> 00:04:53,326
People are oblivious.
88
00:04:54,394 --> 00:04:58,331
The truck has a mechanical
ladder, which the men extend to
89
00:04:58,431 --> 00:05:03,202
the second story balcony,
unseen by anyone inside.
90
00:05:04,270 --> 00:05:06,172
The one CCTV camera
91
00:05:06,272 --> 00:05:08,107
that was available
at the scene was
92
00:05:08,207 --> 00:05:11,411
pointed in another direction,
not at the balcony.
93
00:05:16,649 --> 00:05:17,817
The heist has begun...
94
00:05:18,851 --> 00:05:20,086
in broad daylight.
95
00:05:20,186 --> 00:05:21,888
Once it starts, it starts.
96
00:05:21,988 --> 00:05:22,989
You can't stop.
97
00:05:32,732 --> 00:05:33,933
What's going
through their mind?
98
00:05:34,033 --> 00:05:37,003
"I'm doing it."
It's an adrenaline rush.
99
00:05:37,103 --> 00:05:39,939
Every thought in my head
is not about getting caught.
100
00:05:40,039 --> 00:05:42,442
It's not about
the money itself.
101
00:05:42,542 --> 00:05:45,678
My thoughts are the guys.
How are they gonna do?
102
00:05:54,587 --> 00:05:56,422
The people you have
on your team,
103
00:05:56,522 --> 00:05:58,224
will they perform
under pressure?
104
00:05:59,225 --> 00:06:02,295
While two men head up to
the balcony, the other two
105
00:06:02,395 --> 00:06:05,832
hold their position below
on getaway scooters.
106
00:06:05,932 --> 00:06:09,001
There's nothing unusual
to see people climbing up
107
00:06:09,102 --> 00:06:10,503
on the outside of the Louvre.
108
00:06:27,220 --> 00:06:29,889
The men on the balcony prepare
to break through the window.
109
00:06:43,836 --> 00:06:47,640
No one in the gallery has
any idea what's coming.
110
00:06:47,740 --> 00:06:49,809
I specifically remember
looking at
111
00:06:49,909 --> 00:06:53,946
that emerald necklace that was
Napoleon's second wife's,
112
00:06:54,046 --> 00:06:56,716
and I just thought it was
absolutely gorgeous.
113
00:06:56,816 --> 00:07:00,720
So at 9:32 and we enter,
two minutes later, I am
114
00:07:00,820 --> 00:07:03,823
halfway down, maybe a little
more down that long corridor,
115
00:07:03,923 --> 00:07:06,692
and Jake's, you know,
the first case in,
116
00:07:06,793 --> 00:07:07,827
still in the middle.
117
00:07:07,927 --> 00:07:13,232
I did take a photo of
the unicorn mermaid teapot.
118
00:07:13,332 --> 00:07:15,201
I took that photo at 9:33.
119
00:07:22,442 --> 00:07:27,280
We heard several loud bangs
coming from the furthest window
120
00:07:27,380 --> 00:07:28,648
from the entrance.
121
00:07:28,748 --> 00:07:32,185
Everyone froze and looked
at the balcony window.
122
00:07:33,352 --> 00:07:34,887
Someone is trying to get in.
123
00:07:34,987 --> 00:07:37,356
You could feel
the walls vibrating.
124
00:07:38,591 --> 00:07:41,794
I've never been in, like,
a home invasion situation,
125
00:07:41,894 --> 00:07:43,062
but I imagine it's like that.
126
00:07:44,096 --> 00:07:48,234
What got the hairs on
everyone's neck to stand up was
127
00:07:48,334 --> 00:07:52,872
that distinct sound
of a metal circular blade
128
00:07:52,972 --> 00:07:55,475
making its way through glass.
129
00:07:55,575 --> 00:07:57,543
Zzzzzzz.
130
00:08:03,082 --> 00:08:06,152
So all they're concerned is
get through that glass,
131
00:08:06,252 --> 00:08:09,455
and they are frantic because
they knew they were on a timer.
132
00:08:10,656 --> 00:08:12,792
When a person does a robbery,
you have in your head
133
00:08:12,892 --> 00:08:15,361
how much time you got
to get in and out by.
134
00:08:15,461 --> 00:08:17,597
The second the blade
touches the glass,
135
00:08:17,697 --> 00:08:20,433
an alarm is triggered.
136
00:08:56,002 --> 00:08:57,570
Inside the Apollo gallery,
137
00:08:58,571 --> 00:09:00,373
panic breaks out.
138
00:09:00,473 --> 00:09:03,276
As a teacher, we have these
active shooter drills.
139
00:09:03,376 --> 00:09:07,346
The attendant is yelling
for everyone to run or get out.
140
00:09:07,446 --> 00:09:10,783
I feel like I was in
an active shooter situation
141
00:09:10,883 --> 00:09:13,986
and kept wondering,
"But where is the gunshots?"
142
00:09:14,086 --> 00:09:16,155
Like, that was what was going
through my mind.
143
00:09:16,255 --> 00:09:17,924
We were scared.
We were terrified.
144
00:09:18,024 --> 00:09:21,460
We thought that
our lives were in danger.
145
00:09:21,561 --> 00:09:25,398
We grabbed each other
by the arm and ran back
146
00:09:25,498 --> 00:09:27,099
through the entrance.
147
00:09:27,199 --> 00:09:28,768
We just didn't know what was
about to come through
148
00:09:28,868 --> 00:09:31,304
that window, but we didn't want
to stick around to find out.
149
00:09:46,319 --> 00:09:49,555
Barely 30 minutes after
opening, the world's largest
150
00:09:49,655 --> 00:09:53,559
museum, the Louvre, has been
breached by two masked men
151
00:09:53,659 --> 00:09:54,660
wielding disc cutters.
152
00:09:59,131 --> 00:10:02,768
Captured on dramatic phone
footage, terrified tourists
153
00:10:02,868 --> 00:10:05,404
flee from the scene of
the second-floor break-in.
154
00:10:06,472 --> 00:10:09,275
We were told to run,
we did, we grabbed
155
00:10:09,375 --> 00:10:11,177
each other's hand
and get out of that room.
156
00:10:16,048 --> 00:10:17,383
Back in the Apollo Gallery,
157
00:10:19,385 --> 00:10:21,654
the intruders used
their high-powered tools
158
00:10:21,754 --> 00:10:23,656
as weapons to threaten
the guards.
159
00:10:25,725 --> 00:10:29,795
Louvre security people are not
armed, and it's not their job
160
00:10:29,895 --> 00:10:31,864
to confront another person.
161
00:10:31,964 --> 00:10:36,736
They-- they have not been
trained to stop a crime.
162
00:10:36,836 --> 00:10:38,704
We cannot fight anyone
163
00:10:40,339 --> 00:10:42,675
because we are not police,
police officers.
164
00:10:42,775 --> 00:10:45,277
It's not our job
to confront gangsters.
165
00:10:47,713 --> 00:10:49,081
There's no armed guards.
166
00:10:49,181 --> 00:10:53,452
I mean, it blows me away that
nobody had any kind of weapon.
167
00:10:53,552 --> 00:10:59,191
I saw one of the Louvre staff
members shut what looked like
168
00:10:59,291 --> 00:11:02,528
iron gates to the entrance
of the Apollo room.
169
00:11:02,628 --> 00:11:04,897
I remember him
looking panicked.
170
00:11:17,276 --> 00:11:19,478
An alert goes out
over the radios to all of
171
00:11:19,578 --> 00:11:20,946
the Louvre's security guards.
172
00:11:22,415 --> 00:11:24,784
I heard
a stressed voice.
173
00:11:24,884 --> 00:11:28,187
It was something like,
"We have intruders,
174
00:11:29,555 --> 00:11:31,490
people entering the museum
from the window."
175
00:11:32,491 --> 00:11:35,594
A lot of people thought,
is it a terrorist attack?
176
00:11:35,695 --> 00:11:37,997
Hearing that was terrifying.
177
00:11:39,398 --> 00:11:42,334
Inside the Apollo Gallery,
the thieves' every move is
178
00:11:42,435 --> 00:11:44,203
captured on
surveillance cameras.
179
00:11:46,405 --> 00:11:49,075
Only a select few outside of
law enforcement have seen
180
00:11:49,175 --> 00:11:52,311
this CCTV material,
including journalist
181
00:11:52,411 --> 00:11:53,946
Jean-Michel Decugis.
182
00:12:32,451 --> 00:12:36,655
The thieves turn both disc
cutters on the display cases.
183
00:12:36,756 --> 00:12:40,726
Inside lie the French crown
jewels, including two
184
00:12:40,826 --> 00:12:43,229
diamond necklaces,
a pearl tiara,
185
00:12:43,329 --> 00:12:46,065
and a 170-year-old crown
186
00:12:46,165 --> 00:12:49,001
encrusted with over
a thousand diamonds.
187
00:12:50,035 --> 00:12:54,406
Their value?
Over $100 million.
188
00:12:54,507 --> 00:12:55,941
They'd definitely
done their homework.
189
00:12:57,009 --> 00:12:59,211
They knew which showcases
to target.
190
00:13:03,916 --> 00:13:06,752
The thieves are cutting
through reinforced glass
191
00:13:06,852 --> 00:13:10,256
specially designed to
protect against bullets.
192
00:13:10,356 --> 00:13:13,726
The plexiglass or glass that
covers these cases can
193
00:13:13,826 --> 00:13:16,896
withstand hundreds of hits from
a hammer and are bulletproof.
194
00:13:18,063 --> 00:13:22,368
Yet this glass is designed
with one deliberate weakness.
195
00:13:22,468 --> 00:13:25,504
In the Louvre, there is
a manual which states that
196
00:13:25,604 --> 00:13:27,740
the only way to get into
those cases in the event of
197
00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:30,843
an emergency is
to use a disc cutter.
198
00:13:30,943 --> 00:13:34,513
That would give someone
probably an idea that maybe
199
00:13:34,613 --> 00:13:37,550
there was some type of
insider influence in this case.
200
00:13:39,485 --> 00:13:41,053
How did they know that
the glass could be cut
201
00:13:41,153 --> 00:13:42,955
with those grinders?
202
00:13:43,055 --> 00:13:44,757
I mean, that's
an important question.
203
00:13:54,834 --> 00:13:56,735
Yet something
unexpected happens.
204
00:14:10,683 --> 00:14:12,618
The thieves have been
attacking the cases
205
00:14:12,718 --> 00:14:15,688
for around a minute
when Louvre HQ alerts
206
00:14:15,788 --> 00:14:17,890
the Paris Police Department.
207
00:14:24,864 --> 00:14:27,766
The gang are now racing
against the clock
208
00:14:27,867 --> 00:14:29,702
to smash, grab, and run.
209
00:14:32,037 --> 00:14:35,541
With no power to intervene,
the guards capture evidence
210
00:14:35,641 --> 00:14:37,109
by covertly filming them.
211
00:14:50,422 --> 00:14:52,024
It's now almost two minutes
212
00:14:52,124 --> 00:14:53,759
since the robbers broke in
to the gallery...
213
00:14:55,361 --> 00:14:57,563
but they still haven't
broken through the glass
214
00:14:57,663 --> 00:14:58,664
protecting the jewels.
215
00:15:01,967 --> 00:15:03,802
At that point, they might have
thought they were in there
216
00:15:03,903 --> 00:15:07,640
for too long, so therefore
they went into a hurry-up mode,
217
00:15:07,740 --> 00:15:10,509
which could have been
a bit of a panic mode for them.
218
00:15:16,282 --> 00:15:20,152
Panicking and losing what
you know is the worst thing
219
00:15:20,252 --> 00:15:22,955
that can happen in a robbery.
It is not easy to do.
220
00:15:24,757 --> 00:15:27,660
With the nearest police
station only half a mile away,
221
00:15:28,694 --> 00:15:31,797
law enforcement
are rapidly closing in,
222
00:15:31,897 --> 00:15:34,900
and the robbers become
more and more frantic.
223
00:15:49,448 --> 00:15:51,450
After more than two minutes,
224
00:15:51,550 --> 00:15:54,186
brute force finally pays off.
225
00:16:09,902 --> 00:16:11,637
But the job's not over.
226
00:16:38,797 --> 00:16:40,799
Of course,
one thing you never do
227
00:16:40,899 --> 00:16:42,634
is lump jewelry together
228
00:16:42,735 --> 00:16:44,670
because diamonds can cut
other diamonds.
229
00:16:46,538 --> 00:16:49,375
They were just
chucking it in there.
230
00:16:57,683 --> 00:17:00,552
It's been a breakneck three
minutes to get into the cases
231
00:17:00,652 --> 00:17:01,787
and snatch the jewels.
232
00:17:03,055 --> 00:17:06,291
But with the police now
only seconds away,
233
00:17:06,392 --> 00:17:09,428
the thieves face the riskiest
part of the whole operation,
234
00:17:10,562 --> 00:17:11,797
the escape.
235
00:17:11,897 --> 00:17:14,733
Somebody set the robbery up
very well, but where they made
236
00:17:14,833 --> 00:17:17,302
their mistake was getting away.
237
00:17:37,256 --> 00:17:40,526
Why did these guys panic
after, somewhat panic after
238
00:17:40,626 --> 00:17:41,860
they got the jewels?
239
00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:44,430
Because they were so excited,
they probably didn't even think
240
00:17:44,530 --> 00:17:46,465
they were gonna
get that far.
241
00:17:46,565 --> 00:17:49,668
Their dramatic escape is
captured on a witness's phone.
242
00:17:51,737 --> 00:17:52,805
They were panicking.
243
00:17:52,905 --> 00:17:54,473
They were looking in
all directions trying to see
244
00:17:54,573 --> 00:17:57,309
which direction they'd
have to make their getaway in.
245
00:17:57,409 --> 00:18:01,480
On the street, roughly 20 feet
below, two accomplices are
246
00:18:01,580 --> 00:18:03,782
ready to flee on
high-powered scooters.
247
00:18:07,086 --> 00:18:09,621
Finally, the thieves jump down
and tear away through
248
00:18:09,721 --> 00:18:10,656
the morning traffic.
249
00:18:20,499 --> 00:18:25,504
In eight minutes, four brazen
thieves broke into and hijacked
250
00:18:25,604 --> 00:18:27,673
the nation's most
prized treasures.
251
00:18:29,508 --> 00:18:31,944
A heist that will
go down in history.
252
00:18:34,012 --> 00:18:35,681
As far as we can tell,
Holly may have been
253
00:18:35,781 --> 00:18:37,282
the last person to see them.
254
00:18:39,351 --> 00:18:43,689
I didn't think they would have
left with so many pieces
255
00:18:43,789 --> 00:18:46,492
of jewelry.
It's an absolute travesty.
256
00:18:48,193 --> 00:18:50,629
And now what?
You know, now what?
257
00:18:50,729 --> 00:18:52,131
That's the thing.
Now what?
258
00:19:10,616 --> 00:19:13,085
Just four minutes after
breaking into the Louvre,
259
00:19:13,185 --> 00:19:14,953
the criminals speed off.
260
00:19:15,053 --> 00:19:17,022
They needed to get out
as quickly as possible
261
00:19:17,122 --> 00:19:18,257
from the entire scene.
262
00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:37,943
Amid the growing chaos,
security raced to the scene.
263
00:20:12,911 --> 00:20:16,415
But among the debris,
a glimmer of hope.
264
00:20:16,515 --> 00:20:19,384
Just under the balcony,
I found something shiny.
265
00:20:20,652 --> 00:20:24,056
The crown was made
for Empress Eugénie.
266
00:20:24,156 --> 00:20:27,492
It had more than a thousand
diamonds and probably
267
00:20:27,593 --> 00:20:29,561
50-some emeralds.
268
00:20:29,661 --> 00:20:32,664
It was unique and a piece
of French history.
269
00:20:32,764 --> 00:20:36,101
To find the crown of Eugénie
was heartwarming.
270
00:20:36,201 --> 00:20:39,004
The race was then on,
so, of course, panic sets in.
271
00:20:39,104 --> 00:20:42,741
I did 25 jewelry stores
and never dropped an earring
272
00:20:42,841 --> 00:20:45,911
or a ring, no less a crown
that could fit on my head.
273
00:20:47,746 --> 00:20:51,183
But even without the crown,
thieves still got away with
274
00:20:51,283 --> 00:20:55,587
eight pieces of priceless
jewelry in just eight minutes.
275
00:20:55,687 --> 00:20:58,423
They basically emptied out
the two showcases that
276
00:20:58,523 --> 00:20:59,825
they could get into.
277
00:20:59,925 --> 00:21:02,794
They just beat the
government of France
278
00:21:02,894 --> 00:21:04,363
out of their crown jewels.
279
00:21:06,331 --> 00:21:09,601
Just moments behind them,
police raced to the scene.
280
00:21:09,701 --> 00:21:15,540
The police got word of
the theft from a cyclist.
281
00:21:15,641 --> 00:21:19,211
Within minutes, we're watching
armed, national police
282
00:21:19,311 --> 00:21:21,580
ascend the stairs of the Louvre.
283
00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:24,416
I think that's when it
first really sank into me,
284
00:21:24,516 --> 00:21:25,817
like, "This is a big deal."
285
00:21:29,988 --> 00:21:32,457
But the crown is not
the only thing the thieves
286
00:21:32,557 --> 00:21:34,059
have left behind.
287
00:21:46,071 --> 00:21:50,042
If there's one thing
the French do well, it's DNA.
288
00:21:50,142 --> 00:21:53,812
French investigators have
found 150 samples connected
289
00:21:53,912 --> 00:21:55,180
with this crime.
290
00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:57,816
All that DNA,
and you think you're gonna
291
00:21:57,916 --> 00:21:59,084
get away with it?
292
00:21:59,184 --> 00:22:00,952
That's why they're
not professionals.
293
00:22:01,053 --> 00:22:04,156
To burn that lift would have
been so easy.
294
00:22:04,256 --> 00:22:05,457
I've done it.
295
00:22:24,776 --> 00:22:28,880
Just moments after the alarm
goes off, a team of experts
296
00:22:28,980 --> 00:22:31,983
mobilize to
find the perpetrators.
297
00:22:33,485 --> 00:22:36,788
They are not going to recover
the jewelry without first
298
00:22:36,888 --> 00:22:38,223
arresting the criminals.
299
00:22:38,323 --> 00:22:40,225
The French police are taking
this very seriously.
300
00:22:40,325 --> 00:22:42,627
They've got over 100 officers
working on
301
00:22:42,728 --> 00:22:45,931
the investigative process.
They've contacted Interpol.
302
00:22:46,031 --> 00:22:47,966
The investigation itself
in Paris would have been led
303
00:22:48,066 --> 00:22:51,303
by the BRB, which is
an elite group of investigators.
304
00:22:51,403 --> 00:22:52,704
They're like bloodhounds.
305
00:22:52,804 --> 00:22:55,607
They go out and they fan out
and they can smell out
306
00:22:55,707 --> 00:22:57,008
all of the criminals.
307
00:22:57,109 --> 00:22:58,744
Once they have the DNA,
it's just a matter of time
308
00:22:58,844 --> 00:23:00,645
before they
pick up the suspects.
309
00:23:00,746 --> 00:23:04,249
I honestly believe
that the police knew
310
00:23:04,349 --> 00:23:07,686
within 48 hours, they knew
who those people were.
311
00:23:29,374 --> 00:23:32,711
As hours turn to days,
investigators work
312
00:23:32,811 --> 00:23:36,281
around the clock to monitor
and identify
313
00:23:36,381 --> 00:23:38,483
the suspected perpetrators.
314
00:23:38,583 --> 00:23:40,318
They're gonna follow them,
they're gonna monitor them,
315
00:23:41,386 --> 00:23:42,754
and they're gonna know
more about their lives
316
00:23:42,854 --> 00:23:43,855
than they know.
317
00:23:46,024 --> 00:23:49,227
And every passing minute
means increased risk.
318
00:23:57,269 --> 00:23:59,404
You don't want to let the
individual out of the country
319
00:23:59,504 --> 00:24:01,173
because you don't
want them coming out of
320
00:24:01,273 --> 00:24:03,542
the area where
you have control.
321
00:24:03,642 --> 00:24:06,678
If that was me, my crew and I
and the whole jewels would have
322
00:24:06,778 --> 00:24:10,582
been out of that country within
12 hours or less than that.
323
00:24:15,854 --> 00:24:18,924
Six days into the search,
surveillance leads
324
00:24:19,024 --> 00:24:20,892
investigators right to the airport.
325
00:24:43,882 --> 00:24:47,986
To put yourself through
the scrutiny at an airport is
326
00:24:48,086 --> 00:24:50,088
a amateurish mistake.
327
00:24:50,188 --> 00:24:52,924
Six days and one guy's
trying to board a plane?
328
00:24:53,024 --> 00:24:54,025
Call it what it is.
329
00:24:55,026 --> 00:24:57,762
Stupid idiots.
Such a shame.
330
00:24:57,863 --> 00:24:59,698
I wish they knew me.
Boy...
331
00:25:00,732 --> 00:25:01,833
if I had that jewelry.
332
00:25:08,106 --> 00:25:10,208
40 minutes later,
333
00:25:10,308 --> 00:25:14,279
police move in on a suspect
in a Paris suburb.
334
00:25:27,225 --> 00:25:30,362
They didn't live in some, you
know, fancy neighborhood.
335
00:25:30,462 --> 00:25:32,797
They were kind of street guys
like I was.
336
00:25:32,898 --> 00:25:34,833
Those neighborhoods
are often referred to
337
00:25:34,933 --> 00:25:38,169
as troubled suburbs of Paris.
338
00:25:38,270 --> 00:25:42,173
And it seems as if those
who have been arrested were
339
00:25:42,274 --> 00:25:45,076
considered petit voyous,
small thieves
340
00:25:45,176 --> 00:25:47,612
or small gangsters.
- They're not professionals.
341
00:25:47,712 --> 00:25:50,215
They're thieves, and they got
big cojones, they have
342
00:25:50,315 --> 00:25:53,418
big balls, but they're
not professionals.
343
00:26:06,431 --> 00:26:09,134
They were somewhat amateurish,
but they did get away
344
00:26:09,234 --> 00:26:11,403
with the jewels, which was
their ultimate goal,
345
00:26:11,503 --> 00:26:13,905
and thus far,
they have succeeded.
346
00:26:15,407 --> 00:26:16,942
With the clock ticking,
347
00:26:17,042 --> 00:26:19,744
the two suspects are
brought in for questioning.
348
00:26:19,844 --> 00:26:21,913
They're brought in
for interrogation,
349
00:26:22,013 --> 00:26:23,715
and they partially confessed.
350
00:26:43,768 --> 00:26:46,871
With the evidence mounting,
police close in on
351
00:26:46,972 --> 00:26:48,807
their next suspects.
352
00:26:57,882 --> 00:27:00,785
Four days after the first
arrests, police carry out
353
00:27:00,885 --> 00:27:04,055
a series of raids
and arrest four more suspects
354
00:27:04,155 --> 00:27:05,557
at a soccer match.
355
00:27:06,558 --> 00:27:09,260
The fact that the suspects
were arrested at a match shows
356
00:27:09,361 --> 00:27:11,329
me they felt confident
357
00:27:11,429 --> 00:27:13,431
that they were gonna get away
with this crime.
358
00:27:13,531 --> 00:27:16,835
And I think it shows that
the suspects simply do not fear
359
00:27:16,935 --> 00:27:18,370
French law enforcement.
360
00:27:18,470 --> 00:27:20,605
So out of the five people
that were arrested
361
00:27:20,705 --> 00:27:24,309
in the second go around, two of
them have been charged
362
00:27:24,409 --> 00:27:26,678
with criminal conspiracy
and theft.
363
00:27:26,778 --> 00:27:29,314
And in fact, they have
a relationship together.
364
00:27:29,414 --> 00:27:31,650
You had a team of individuals
who knew each other.
365
00:27:45,063 --> 00:27:48,566
It's pure and simple.
Stones equal money.
366
00:27:48,667 --> 00:27:52,470
Criminals will steal anything
of value with no regard for
367
00:27:52,570 --> 00:27:54,806
its cultural significance
or its importance to
368
00:27:54,906 --> 00:27:56,441
the French people
or to the world.
369
00:27:56,541 --> 00:27:59,110
You're not there to say,
"Oh, let's not rob this one
370
00:27:59,210 --> 00:28:02,914
because this is the crown that,
you know, Napoleon's wife."
371
00:28:03,014 --> 00:28:05,550
Well, I can't give a
about Napoleon's wife.
372
00:28:05,650 --> 00:28:06,651
You're there for the diamond.
373
00:28:08,620 --> 00:28:12,123
Three out of the four alleged
main perpetrators are now
374
00:28:12,223 --> 00:28:15,960
in custody, and one woman
suspected of aiding the crime
375
00:28:16,061 --> 00:28:18,863
has been released
under judicial supervision.
376
00:28:18,963 --> 00:28:21,599
But if the suspects are telling
the truth that they were hired
377
00:28:21,700 --> 00:28:24,636
guns, one key question remains.
378
00:28:24,736 --> 00:28:27,806
The $102 million question--
379
00:28:27,906 --> 00:28:29,507
Where's the mastermind?
380
00:28:38,483 --> 00:28:41,419
Thieves pulled off a heist
at one of the most important
381
00:28:41,519 --> 00:28:44,222
museums in the world,
but the ringleader behind
382
00:28:44,322 --> 00:28:47,459
the operation could
still be at large.
383
00:28:53,932 --> 00:28:57,769
Right now, he or she is
feeling pretty confident that
384
00:28:57,869 --> 00:28:59,137
they've gotten away
with this crime.
385
00:29:00,405 --> 00:29:03,875
As police hunt relentlessly
for the perpetrators,
386
00:29:03,975 --> 00:29:07,445
one suspect in custody is
unmasked to the world
387
00:29:07,545 --> 00:29:09,380
by Jean-Michel Decugis.
388
00:29:27,365 --> 00:29:29,434
When you're talking about
somebody who likes to flex
389
00:29:29,534 --> 00:29:32,270
and show off on social media,
it doesn't surprise me that
390
00:29:32,370 --> 00:29:35,340
they could have the audacity
to take on the Louvre.
391
00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:38,510
Whether that was by ego
or bravado, it might land them
392
00:29:38,610 --> 00:29:40,712
in a very nice egoistic jail.
393
00:29:45,150 --> 00:29:47,585
Pieces of the puzzle
are coming together,
394
00:29:47,685 --> 00:29:51,222
but police still grapple
with the ultimate question.
395
00:29:51,322 --> 00:29:53,658
The one criminal they haven't
arrested yet could be the one
396
00:29:53,758 --> 00:29:55,593
that holds the jewelry.
397
00:29:55,693 --> 00:29:57,195
Hello? Hello?
398
00:29:58,229 --> 00:29:59,230
Where's the jewels?
399
00:30:00,899 --> 00:30:03,835
The police need to persuade
the suspected thieves
400
00:30:03,935 --> 00:30:05,537
to rat out their boss.
401
00:30:05,637 --> 00:30:08,540
The first one in is gonna
get the benefit, so that's why
402
00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:11,576
right now probably the police
are playing each one against
403
00:30:11,676 --> 00:30:14,212
the other to see who's gonna
be the first one to work
404
00:30:14,312 --> 00:30:16,281
with them.
- You couldn't have got my boss.
405
00:30:16,381 --> 00:30:17,382
No way in hell.
406
00:30:17,482 --> 00:30:19,818
You gotta prosecute me
and let me do my time.
407
00:30:39,871 --> 00:30:42,574
French police can only
hold suspects in custody
408
00:30:42,674 --> 00:30:44,175
for 96 hours.
409
00:30:45,243 --> 00:30:46,377
And they're running
out of time.
410
00:30:59,190 --> 00:31:02,360
I'm convinced that Parisian
authorities will catch
411
00:31:02,460 --> 00:31:05,063
the people responsible for
this crime, but will they do it
412
00:31:05,163 --> 00:31:07,365
in time to recover the jewelry?
I don't think so.
413
00:31:11,703 --> 00:31:15,006
French authorities know this
heist is about more than
414
00:31:15,106 --> 00:31:17,175
the value of the gems.
415
00:31:17,275 --> 00:31:19,477
This was an attack on
the soul of the nation.
416
00:31:20,478 --> 00:31:23,715
These are pieces of history.
They're very symbolic.
417
00:31:23,815 --> 00:31:25,917
They're cultural threads
of France.
418
00:31:28,086 --> 00:31:31,456
200 years after the end of
the French monarchy,
419
00:31:31,556 --> 00:31:35,393
the last remaining pieces of
its memory have been stolen.
420
00:31:36,761 --> 00:31:40,698
In 1887, the French sold off
77,000 crown jewels,
421
00:31:40,798 --> 00:31:42,767
and Charles Tiffany bought
a third of them and sold most
422
00:31:42,867 --> 00:31:44,969
of them to rich American women.
423
00:31:45,069 --> 00:31:47,739
And the Louvre has been trying
to buy back the crown jewels
424
00:31:47,839 --> 00:31:49,140
ever since.
425
00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:53,077
The crown jewels are hot
property and can't just be sold
426
00:31:53,177 --> 00:31:54,579
on the black market.
427
00:31:54,679 --> 00:31:57,715
I believe they targeted
the most valuable jewels
428
00:31:57,815 --> 00:31:59,550
that they were able to sell.
429
00:31:59,651 --> 00:32:02,720
The real art in an art heist,
it isn't the stealing,
430
00:32:02,820 --> 00:32:03,955
it's the selling.
431
00:32:04,055 --> 00:32:06,391
And what are you gonna
do with it once you have it?
432
00:32:06,491 --> 00:32:08,826
Most people get rid of
the jewelry through a fence.
433
00:32:08,927 --> 00:32:12,263
Who knows something is stolen,
buys it at a very cut-low
434
00:32:12,363 --> 00:32:15,099
price, and then
gets rid of it himself.
435
00:32:15,199 --> 00:32:18,736
They took the bling-bling
jewels easier to grab and steal
436
00:32:18,836 --> 00:32:21,873
and maybe sell because a lot of
the diamonds were smaller.
437
00:32:21,973 --> 00:32:24,509
Every one of these criminals
better think,
438
00:32:24,609 --> 00:32:26,844
"Can you get rid of it?"
439
00:32:26,945 --> 00:32:29,981
Where you gonna sell it?
You can't.
440
00:32:30,081 --> 00:32:33,351
No one with a good reputation
is going to touch them.
441
00:32:33,451 --> 00:32:35,219
Anyone would raise the alarm.
442
00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:38,856
You could bury them
anywhere for 25-30 years.
443
00:32:38,957 --> 00:32:39,958
You could dig them up.
444
00:32:40,058 --> 00:32:42,060
And then go back
when the heat's off them a few
445
00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:45,129
months or years later.
- You can't do that to money.
446
00:32:45,229 --> 00:32:46,230
Money will get rot.
447
00:32:49,500 --> 00:32:52,670
Investigators race
against the clock to prevent
448
00:32:52,770 --> 00:32:54,339
a worst-case scenario.
449
00:32:54,439 --> 00:32:57,175
When it comes to jewelry,
breaking the stones up does
450
00:32:57,275 --> 00:32:59,911
two things for a criminal--
it hides the evidence of
451
00:33:00,011 --> 00:33:02,780
their crime, and it allows them
to monetize the theft
452
00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:04,649
as quickly as possible.
453
00:33:04,749 --> 00:33:07,318
They'll pop the diamonds out of
the settings and sell those
454
00:33:07,418 --> 00:33:10,188
separately, melt down
the precious metals into
455
00:33:10,288 --> 00:33:12,523
a smelter and just sell that
as gold weight.
456
00:33:13,958 --> 00:33:15,994
But cutting these unique
pieces up
457
00:33:16,094 --> 00:33:19,297
requires real criminal
underworld expertise.
458
00:33:19,397 --> 00:33:23,267
The most impeccable
Ceylon blue sapphires.
459
00:33:23,368 --> 00:33:25,603
There are nearly 3,000 diamonds
in that one.
460
00:33:25,703 --> 00:33:29,307
It's not that hard,
once you get these jewels out
461
00:33:29,407 --> 00:33:33,011
of France, to go to places like
Tel Aviv or Antwerp or even
462
00:33:33,111 --> 00:33:36,681
India, where there are jewelry
specialists and people
463
00:33:36,781 --> 00:33:37,882
who recut stones.
464
00:33:38,883 --> 00:33:42,387
If people are skilled
and they're good jewelers,
465
00:33:42,487 --> 00:33:44,455
they can remove stones
from settings
466
00:33:44,555 --> 00:33:45,890
very easily and quickly.
467
00:33:46,891 --> 00:33:50,228
There's always going to be
some dodgy jeweler out there
468
00:33:50,328 --> 00:33:52,663
that isn't gonna ask
any questions, unfortunately.
469
00:33:55,933 --> 00:33:56,934
There's another theory--
470
00:33:57,935 --> 00:33:58,936
They kept them,
471
00:33:59,037 --> 00:34:01,706
they're hidden,
and they're gonna use them
472
00:34:01,806 --> 00:34:03,241
as a bargaining chip.
473
00:34:03,341 --> 00:34:04,876
If they steal these
things, then they don't have
474
00:34:04,976 --> 00:34:06,577
a place to sell them.
They hold on to them,
475
00:34:06,677 --> 00:34:08,880
and if they get in trouble,
476
00:34:08,980 --> 00:34:12,016
they can use them as
negotiation chips to try to get
477
00:34:12,116 --> 00:34:13,117
their charges dropped.
478
00:34:15,019 --> 00:34:17,655
These jewels would
be a good bargaining chip.
479
00:34:17,755 --> 00:34:21,259
But don't forget,
they don't want to be caught
480
00:34:21,359 --> 00:34:22,460
with the jewels.
481
00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:24,495
They want to get away with
them, and they want to
482
00:34:24,595 --> 00:34:25,596
break them up.
483
00:34:26,764 --> 00:34:29,867
The Louvre heist sends a wave
of panic around the world
484
00:34:29,967 --> 00:34:32,737
as investigators ask how
the audacious plan was
485
00:34:32,837 --> 00:34:35,606
pulled off.
- They came up with a good plan.
486
00:34:35,706 --> 00:34:37,975
How did they think of it?
How did it happen?
487
00:34:38,076 --> 00:34:39,343
What were they trying
to get away with?
488
00:34:51,622 --> 00:34:55,626
Five days after the heist,
under a secret police escort,
489
00:34:55,726 --> 00:34:58,029
the Louvre transports
its remaining jewels to
490
00:34:58,129 --> 00:34:59,163
an underground vault.
491
00:35:00,665 --> 00:35:03,067
The central bank of France
would be like Fort Knox.
492
00:35:03,167 --> 00:35:07,205
It's like the most secure place
in the entire French government.
493
00:35:08,206 --> 00:35:10,141
I think the thieves
targeted the Louvre Museum
494
00:35:10,241 --> 00:35:11,676
because they could get in.
495
00:35:11,776 --> 00:35:16,013
This is a great robbery
for an opportunist.
496
00:35:16,114 --> 00:35:18,616
You found a weakness,
you exploited it.
497
00:35:18,716 --> 00:35:22,053
And when the opportunity
presents, there are six things
498
00:35:22,153 --> 00:35:23,988
on the checklist
to pull off a heist.
499
00:35:25,723 --> 00:35:28,693
Number one, location.
500
00:35:28,793 --> 00:35:32,263
Within the sprawling Louvre
complex, the Apollo Gallery is
501
00:35:32,363 --> 00:35:34,532
on a corner overlooking
a busy road.
502
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:38,970
I was very surprised that
you can take a truck like that
503
00:35:39,070 --> 00:35:42,340
and go right up to that window
and not have a little distance,
504
00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:44,742
maybe a fence or something
you have to go through.
505
00:35:44,842 --> 00:35:47,245
I'm not talking about
Spider-Man going up
506
00:35:47,345 --> 00:35:48,813
the side of a building.
507
00:35:48,913 --> 00:35:51,949
A lift went right to that one
level, jumped over the thing
508
00:35:52,049 --> 00:35:54,852
and getting in a window.
That's a vulnerability.
509
00:36:06,664 --> 00:36:08,733
Number two, access.
510
00:36:10,268 --> 00:36:12,603
The crown jewels are
displayed near a window.
511
00:36:13,938 --> 00:36:17,475
Former thief David Desclos
discovered this weakness
512
00:36:17,575 --> 00:36:20,945
five years ago when he was
invited to the Apollo Gallery.
513
00:36:21,045 --> 00:36:22,513
for a podcast.
514
00:36:40,531 --> 00:36:44,735
Number three, it helps to have
insider information
515
00:36:44,835 --> 00:36:47,138
My theory how this
could've went down--
516
00:36:47,238 --> 00:36:49,507
One guy has a girlfriend
who works there.
517
00:36:49,607 --> 00:36:51,475
Talk about the Louvre,
how easy it is.
518
00:36:51,576 --> 00:36:53,244
Oh, there's really no security.
519
00:36:53,344 --> 00:36:56,581
Hey, there was a window with
a balcony, and he's talking to
520
00:36:56,681 --> 00:36:59,450
his friends, and now they come
up with a plan, say,
521
00:36:59,550 --> 00:37:02,220
"Let's do this."
Come on, they're criminals.
522
00:37:02,320 --> 00:37:04,188
When you're a criminal,
you're a criminal.
523
00:37:04,288 --> 00:37:07,258
A suspected crew member is
rumored to have had
524
00:37:07,358 --> 00:37:09,193
insider knowledge
525
00:37:09,293 --> 00:37:11,495
from working at
a nearby museum.
526
00:37:12,763 --> 00:37:15,733
Working in the museum
to know how it works,
527
00:37:15,833 --> 00:37:20,404
it's basic, you know,
it's basic knowledge.
528
00:37:20,504 --> 00:37:23,074
The guys who did this
robbery knew
529
00:37:23,174 --> 00:37:25,610
what the protocols
for security were, too.
530
00:37:26,744 --> 00:37:29,480
Number four, the crew.
531
00:37:29,580 --> 00:37:33,184
Once the opportunity is
confirmed, they recruit a team
532
00:37:33,284 --> 00:37:35,253
to cover every skill set.
533
00:37:50,668 --> 00:37:53,304
But you're going over
with your crew-- your job,
534
00:37:53,404 --> 00:37:56,340
your job, your job.
You make them repeat it,
535
00:37:56,440 --> 00:37:58,276
you make them talk back
till they're going,
536
00:37:58,376 --> 00:38:00,311
"I know, I know, I got it."
No, you don't.
537
00:38:00,411 --> 00:38:01,679
Number five,
538
00:38:03,014 --> 00:38:04,415
the plan.
539
00:38:04,515 --> 00:38:07,652
Once the crew is assembled,
they case the joint to
540
00:38:07,752 --> 00:38:08,753
formulate the plan.
541
00:38:14,659 --> 00:38:18,095
To criminals, cultural heritage
means nothing.
542
00:38:18,195 --> 00:38:23,000
This only is jewels,
gold, diamonds, cash.
543
00:38:24,568 --> 00:38:27,138
They had to go to the
Louvre multiple times, at least,
544
00:38:27,238 --> 00:38:28,639
you know, as casing the place.
545
00:38:29,840 --> 00:38:31,008
And you know
what's interesting?
546
00:38:31,108 --> 00:38:33,010
They didn't touch
the crown of Louis XV.
547
00:38:34,478 --> 00:38:37,782
The thieves must have known
the jewels in that crown
548
00:38:37,882 --> 00:38:38,883
are fake.
549
00:38:40,885 --> 00:38:43,354
Number six, the gear.
550
00:38:43,454 --> 00:38:46,057
There's no heist without
the right equipment.
551
00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:52,930
You could buy it at Home Depot
or Lowe's you know, it's not
552
00:38:53,030 --> 00:38:54,532
like it's a big tool.
553
00:39:10,081 --> 00:39:13,918
Now, all they need is to find
a way up to the balcony.
554
00:39:33,371 --> 00:39:36,240
And they thought, "Well,
maybe we could sell this
to make some money."
555
00:39:36,340 --> 00:39:38,409
And then all of a sudden,
they had a bright idea.
556
00:39:38,509 --> 00:39:41,045
This will get us up to that
balcony we were looking at
557
00:39:41,145 --> 00:39:42,680
to get into the crown jewels.
558
00:39:42,780 --> 00:39:44,749
And all of a sudden,
the light bulb goes off,
559
00:39:44,849 --> 00:39:46,384
and here we go.
560
00:39:46,484 --> 00:39:49,787
With the location,
insider information,
561
00:39:49,887 --> 00:39:55,326
access, a crew, gear,
and a plan, the greatest heist
562
00:39:55,426 --> 00:39:57,661
in modern times
is set in motion.
563
00:39:58,696 --> 00:40:00,865
It was brilliant.
Absolutely brilliant.
564
00:40:00,965 --> 00:40:05,069
I mean, not mastermind
material, but a brilliant plan.
565
00:40:05,169 --> 00:40:07,872
Planning was good.
Execution was terrible.
566
00:40:07,972 --> 00:40:09,540
It was very sloppily done.
567
00:40:11,208 --> 00:40:13,711
So these guys had
their plan to get in.
568
00:40:15,112 --> 00:40:16,847
Getting out was
a little bit different.
569
00:40:16,947 --> 00:40:19,450
This can't be well organized
in the beginning,
570
00:40:19,550 --> 00:40:23,020
and this [bleep] up in the end.
571
00:40:25,356 --> 00:40:27,658
The heist didn't go
exactly as planned.
572
00:40:29,059 --> 00:40:31,729
Suspects are in custody,
but the jewels,
573
00:40:32,763 --> 00:40:34,465
they're still out there.
574
00:40:34,565 --> 00:40:37,868
If there is a criminal looking
at this documentary,
575
00:40:37,968 --> 00:40:40,304
I have a message for him.
Give them back.
576
00:40:41,872 --> 00:40:44,809
For the criminals to take on
the Louvre, it was a real
577
00:40:44,909 --> 00:40:46,277
slap in the face.
578
00:40:46,377 --> 00:40:48,746
It should be a wake up call
to museums everywhere.
579
00:40:48,846 --> 00:40:50,681
If you can get into the Louvre,
580
00:40:50,781 --> 00:40:52,683
they can get into your museum
as well.
581
00:40:54,018 --> 00:40:55,786
As far as we can tell,
Holly may have been
582
00:40:55,886 --> 00:40:57,321
the last person to see them.
583
00:40:58,355 --> 00:41:02,860
I just think it's incredibly
sad, you know, that something
584
00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:04,829
so historic was taken.
585
00:41:06,597 --> 00:41:10,067
It's our property,
not my property,
586
00:41:10,167 --> 00:41:12,636
but the property of the nation.
587
00:41:12,736 --> 00:41:19,043
That is something far, far more
precious than 88 million euros.
588
00:41:20,444 --> 00:41:23,380
Where's the mastermind?
He's gone.
589
00:41:23,481 --> 00:41:26,283
He's got the jewels,
and I respect the guy a lot.
590
00:41:30,955 --> 00:41:31,956
I might move to Europe.
