@@Preacher_. Scandanvia's pretty good in general on this. Instead of frontloading a 30 year sentence, it starts with a low sentence which is extended at the end (by a few years, top) if you're still deemed a threat to society, so you're encouraged to change rather than just wait it out. Technically it can be extended an unlimited number of times, but that is unlikely as it'll be years between each sentence, likely with a different judge.

The museum cashes out the insurance policy and the thieves ransom the art to the insurer who gained ownership when they paid out. The insurer pays the ransom because they can likely make a profit putting it up for auction or selling it back to the museum or gallery.

For example, Larry said that if he had a choice to rob 10 Picasso paintings or a truck full of Apple watches, he'd go for the watches because he knows he can get rid of them easily. Sure, it's less money, but still a lot of money.

One rule of robery is that you only rob what you allready have a handler for. Making the deal ist pretty much the first step in any heist. And you won't be paid the real value. (*edit: Missinformation* I heard it's usually 10% of the value because the handler has to resell it and knows that you can't.) That's why cash is allways the best thing to steal If you have a way to transport the weight.

vigge cokar litte cola not at all, if you look generally smaller more close knit communities tend to be the safest places to live because everyone knows everyone else. But extending beyond that if everyone in your country is a white, Russian Orthodox Christian that means they’re all going to have similar values and experiences which further means they’re more likely to relate to one another and empathize with them. That also means they lack any benefits that diversity might bring but on the same token racism isn’t a problem. Most people will point at European countries with one ethic type, one main religion , and 10 million citizens and try to compare that to the US where we have 350 million people, a whole rainbow of ethnic groups and religions and 50 different states that all do things differently and say Europe is better, however when you say compare the white only population in America to say the same group in Europe, almost universally America does it better and on larger numbers

Doesn't matter how much the painting is valued at auction, dude; if you can't sell it, it's worth less than a can of Pepsi to you. The paintings purported value is what you can expect to get in a legitimate manner, but like he said, doing it illigitimate means a ton of risk for a buyer, which gives them negotiating power to lower the price. Things are only worth as much as people are willing to pay for them. And after having gotten nothing for years after a giant job but their gang slowly crumbling around them, were they about to refuse $200K to hold out for a couple million that they were never, ever, EVER going to get? Seriously, this is like Baby's First Economics Concepts here.

I despise this is in every way because feelings and emotions should not be the basis for any decisions in a justice system, but rationality and facts. And the fact is that while having a death penalty gives a feeling of satisfaction in some cases, all it does is make a wrong conviction irreversible. This is not the middle ages, and it's not some middle Eastern country, we shouldn't have a justice system based on such principles like revenge.

Another reason why such high value art gets stolen is for other criminals to use as a bargaining tool if they ever get legal trouble. It actually happened a couple of times here in the Netherlands were van Gogh paintings were stolen and sold to crime bosses like the druglord Kees Houtman. He was going to get jailtime for drug trafficking but after he offered the paintings back he essentially got a out of jail for free. There’s actually another famous story about Octaaf Durnham which also stole two paintings and tried to sell them to Cor van Hout (the man who kidnapped Heineken), but Cor was assassinated before the deal was done so they were eventually sold to an Italian Mafia boss, and a similar story happened. Give back the paintings to make some legal trouble go. So in short, stolen art is essentially a get out of jail free card as long as you didn’t steal it yourself and that’s why they’re worth so much money.

As an American, I have serious issues with both. I don't like the insanely harsher sentences, but the rehabilitationist take is so inconsistent and varies from person to person. It's a nice idea, but it lets the criminals that just lie (aka, something most criminals would do) that they'll be so much better in society get off the hook and continue with whatever they were doing. The fact that those criminals could just go out on the weekends doesn't really help in making the whole process not just feel like a slap on the wrist. Then they only go to jail for a few years after blowing up cars in a public space, threatening and pointing guns at a security officer, and then stealing three famous paintings worth $30 million. That is WAY too low of a time for punishment. For jail time that low and that loose, I can't blame them for doing crimes again. They get off almost scotch-free! There should be a hybrid system somehow that incorporates both punishment and rehab, but now that's the least of concerns considering the global situation.
