| Comments | The pieces were stolen from a church in Lima in 2008. Eight of them were tracked to an auction house in Iowa who turned them over to the Federal Agents. The last painting was found to be at a New York auction house. Because everyone involved in this just handed back the paintings, it looks like there will be no prosecutions of these people for handling stolen goods. |
