In this episode of The Missing Report, host Jennifer McCarthy takes listeners inside the Antwerp Diamond Heist of 2003, widely considered one of the most audacious and meticulously planned crimes in history. This true crime deep dive explores how Leonardo Notarbartolo, an Italian thief with ties to 'The School of Turin,' exploited two years of patience and insider access to bypass the world's most advanced security systems at the Antwerp Diamond Center. For fans of high-stakes heists, forensic mysteries, and criminal psychology, this narrative reveals not just what was stolen—over $100 million in diamonds, gold, and jewelry—but exactly how it was done without triggering a single alarm.
