Right.

The reaction that you're describing sounds like it's one of a sense of self-questioning that's happening because of just how highly trafficked this area was.

How could this possibly occur?

Explain that.

In reading about this story, I learned that this is one of several thefts from French museums this year.

Can you tell me about some of those other episodes?

Like, what is going on?

Is there an understanding that these robberies are connected in any way?

I mean, I'm just wondering, it does feel like it's out of another era that you have this string of museum robberies, you know, and I'm wondering if the thieves either are in any way working together even loosely or are targeting the museums for similar reasons.

I've seen it.

Yeah.

I feel like I'm watching it in real life right now.

But, you know, like it's secret.

What are the next steps in the investigation?

Like, what are the investigators telling you about the manhunt for these guys, about their investigative strategies?

Do we know how they're going about trying to catch them?

Yeah, they didn't manage to burn it.

My final question for you, Catherine, is do you think it's possible, and it sounds like it might be, that these thieves actually pulled this off?

Like, that they could get away with it?

We'll be right back.
