I used to work for Harry Winston. I worked in their remote security location - monitoring the cameras for their locations, responding to alarms etc. When they got robbed at their Paris location it was one of the biggest jewelry heists by value (maybe the biggest?). It was partially an inside job as one of the physical security guards was in on it, provided the thieves info and was on duty when the thieves entered. He was the one who buzzed them in. How familiar are you with this heist? I'm curious if you know who the other thieves were. I believe there were about 20 or so people involved who were arrested (4 of whom actually performed the heist). Do you know who they were or what group they were without how it got planned etc.? I know they suspected the Pink Panthers for a while but I don't believe they were involved.
