  • The Cone That Cracked a $62,000 Payroll Heist
    2026/09/10
    The Cone That Cracked a $62,000 Payroll Heist

    The ordinary sight of a fluorescent-orange, 36-inch highway cone unlocked a chain of precise movements that stole between $62,000 and $78,000 in payroll cash - and the cone was stamped Dellwood County Public Works even though the nearest Dellwood depot was 47 miles away. Who moved a single cone across counties and why did one cone get left behind when the rest vanished?

    In this episode, you will hear the step-by-step events of the Friday morning run, the eleven-minute gap that cost a sealed currency box, and how one photographed cone tied distant evidence together - could one misplaced object unravel a carefully planned robbery?

    Person: Ed Pruitt
    Date: February 8, 2019
    Location: Millhaven Lumber Cooperative
    Amount: $62,000 to $78,000
    Object: 36-inch fluorescent-orange highway cone stamped Dellwood County Public Works

    - Courier Ed Pruitt had driven the Friday payroll run 106 times without incident.
    - The van left at 7:40 AM and normally arrived at the cooperative by 8:05 AM, a 25-minute route.
    - At 7:52 AM Pruitt encountered six orange cones across Hatcher Road and was directed onto Sable Branch Road.
    - The rear doors were opened and the currency box was taken within 40 seconds; Pruitt waited 11 minutes before calling dispatch.
    - Three days later a single cone stamped with a Route Nine staging yard batch from fall 2018 was found 47 miles from Dellwood at 8:22 AM by county surveyor Kathleen Young.

  • The Night Six Masterpieces Vanished Without a Breach
    2026/09/09
    The Night Six Masterpieces Vanished Without a Breach

    A secure penthouse logged a credentialed entry at 3:47 a.m., yet every alarm, camera and sensor reported no breach - and six paintings valued at $1.4 million were gone for thirty-six hours before anyone noticed. How do near-perfect giclée reproductions, one centimeter off on a harbor painting, replace originals without tripping a single system?

    In this episode, we follow the timeline from the January 17th alarm log to the plumber Harvey Russo’s discovery and investigator Eugene Mueller’s eleven-month pursuit, mapping every documented entry, personnel credential, and anomaly to answer: who moved the paintings and how did a card stay in its owner’s pocket while the door opened?

    Person: Edwin Storch
    Date: January 17, 2011
    Location: Aldenmoor Hotel penthouse, sixteenth floor
    Value: $1,400,000
    Investigator: Eugene Mueller

    - Entry logged at 3:47 a.m. on January 17, 2011 with Debra Walsh’s credential number while her badge never left her possession.
    - Six original mid-century American paintings were replaced by giclée reproductions printed on linen and surface-aged, discovered January 19 after plumber Harvey Russo noticed color change.
    - Reproduction of the harbor painting measured approximately one centimeter wider on each side than the original.
    - Penthouse lease ran January 15-18, 2011 at $4,200 per night, rented through Vantage Curatorial during a conference with roughly 300 attendees.
    - Alarm log showed eleven openings over four days; eight accounted for, two were Harvey Russo’s documented work visits, leaving the unexplained eleventh opening at 3:47 a.m.

  • Found in Mud: The $250 Coin That Exposed a Mint Heist
    2026/09/08
    Found in Mud: The $250 Coin That Exposed a Mint Heist

    A mirror-proof half-dollar with no date or mint mark and a denomination of $250 was found in meltwater in rural Ohio in December 2011 - a coin that should not have existed and that would unravel a secret scheme in nine days. Who let dies for a cancelled bullion program stay in a vault, and how did a routine night shift become the means to produce illicit specimen strikes?

    In this episode, we tell how a retired postal worker’s chance discovery led investigators from a gravel path to a private mint and a chain of events that exposed off-hour production, false provenance, and phone records linking employees to an outside logistics consultant. How did electrical submetering, die custody, and fourteen quiet conversations become the trail that answered the question everyone asked after the coin was found?

    Person: Marie Armstrong
    Date: early December 2011
    Location: Harwick Industrial Campus, Harwick, Ohio
    Case: unauthorized specimen strikes using tabled dies
    Event: eleven nighttime electrical spikes between February and November 2011

    - The coin was half-dollar sized, proof-struck, with mirror fields and a $250 denomination on the reverse.
    - Marie Armstrong, age 53, found the coin in a patch of meltwater while photographing a red-tailed hawk.
    - The Harwick Industrial Mint operated two shifts: day shift with 14 workers and evening shift with 9 workers.
    - The mint ran three presses: one Schuler for blanking/initial striking and two Graebner presses for finishing.
    - Between January and October 2011, subpoenaed phone records showed 14 calls between Melvin Reynolds and Sharon Hansen.
