One Year After Louvre Heist, Stolen French Crown Jewels Remain Missing
One year after the Louvre Museum heist in Paris, the four main suspects remain jailed awaiting trial, but the eight stolen 19th-century jewels, including a crown and brooch of Empress Eugénie, are still missing. The thieves entered the museum disguised as workmen, using industrial disc cutters to steal the jewels in seven minutes. Despite extensive searches and investigations, police have exhausted leads. Experts suggest the jewels may have been hidden locally or handed to a fence, with hopes that suspects might confess for leniency.
