By Darkness Radio

True Crime Tuesday presents Stealing Manhattan: The Untold Story of America’s Billion Dollar Gem Heist Masterminds w/Burl Barer & Punch Stanimirovic!

Burl Barer is an Edgar Award winning author and accomplished media professional, with a career spanning several decades. Among his many books, his WildBlue Press true crime classic, MURDER IN THE FAMILY, is ranked #3 on the "Ten Best True Crime Books Ever Written," and he is listed as one of America's 100 "MUST READ" authors.

Punch Stanimirovic, an infamous safe cracker and forger, could punch open a safe in under sixteen seconds. He was also a master “aerosol artist” whose street art inspired Sean Sullivan aka Layercakeny and the youngest and highest-ranking member of the YACS/ Pink Panthers. He served sixteen years in prison where he became an in-demand tattoo artist for the Latin Kings. Punch was born to wealth and raised to be an exceptional diamond thief, but his true love was always art. After a period of criminal activity, he turned away from his life of crime and brought art therapy programs to American prisons.

Both men appear on today's program to talk about Mr. Stan (Punch's father) the greatest Gentleman Thief to ever live, Punch's relationship with his father, Punch's training and history, and how a 15 year old makes 20 million dollars! 

PLUS, AN ALL-NEW DUMB CRIMES/STUPID CRIMINALS WITH BEER CITY BRUISER!
