Former FBI agent publishes book identifying suspects in the 1990 Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum art heist
The 1990 theft of 13 artworks from the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston, valued at over $500 million, remains the largest unsolved art heist in history. Former FBI agent Geoff Kelly, who led the investigation for over two decades, has written a book publicly identifying the men he believes were responsible and detailing how the stolen works moved through criminal networks. The FBI stated in 2013 that it knew who was responsible but declined to name them publicly.
