Anyone else notice the old lady who they showed twice saying she wanted a robbery or something "exciting" to happen? Lol, watch out for grandma!
Greed,looters,they made their fortune stolen amazing art…what a shame
Lofl at the 17:00 mark the albino tries to make some sort of comparison to taking a war treasure from German War supporters… to an American attacking other Americans fighting for justice… just pathetic lofl. 19:00 mark the church was worried the other pieces would be stolen from them… by the Russians.. so that’s why they never investigated earlier…lofl. at the 104:00 mark the albino again taking about why cultural thinks arts important.. no matter where they are.. they belong to "you".. that are "all of ours".. then immediately attacks the guy for taking it… dust lofl.. this guy is an attention whoore clown
I bet this is all made up.
Once it became obvious Joe Meador was gay, I suddenly flipped. Let the gay keep the treasures, he’ll love them more than a church LOL 😂 (joking)
I noticed that some of those pieces are of ancient Egyptian origin. Are you going to pass them back to Egypt in turn?
Who calls who a thief here?
This channel is so underrated.
Stolen goods
What Texas?
Theft is theft. Perhaps statute of limitations meant that they couldn’t be prosecuted for the theft, but they absolutely should have been prosecuted for the sale. I don’t understand people who buy stolen art. It’s ART, it’s meant to be shared.
This is where Texas stole the spoils of war. You know they were PAINTINGS . Ask Ted Cruz. Photographs. Let’s look at them.
War is an excuse to steal.
Wow the Texans are so cavalier about stealing valuables that belong to so many people. Welcome to America!
Death penalty for the thieves on artistic grounds not religious!!!!!
I find it funny that the niece told everyone where they live. Joe Meador is no better than the nazi’s that only stole art pieces.
Please tell me we aren’t going there again.
Leave it to privileged white people to steal precious artifacts, then pretend the own them when the real owners come looking. Yet me a Puerto Rican does same crime now. I got no chance. Freaking family disgust me. They stay on there high horse like they should be compensated for stolen property. The privilege in this country is insane!!!!!!! What gives me the right to judge you sir as u so nicely asked, is that you and your family pretend its ok to keep stolen artifacts, try to sell during the litigation, then seek compensation to give back to rightful owners. Total bull crap. Typical white America
The niece just rubs me the wrong way
That lady has to be one the worlds worst liars at the end lol
Holy crap. That was booooooooorrrrrrriiiiiiiiinnnnnng
…and this is just a fraction of stolen art.
Goehring thought of himself as a ”renaissance man’ too. Another art thief…
Looting during wartime is generally a capital crime. It’s an embarrassment to America that meador was allowed to escape the noose.
I didn’t know Mark Summers has an accent!
