Winnipeg police recover rare Koechert Diamond Pearl
Winnipeg police say they recovered the Koechert Diamond Pearl from a home linked to Gerald Blanchard, a suspected ring leader in a Western Canada crime network. The pendant stolen from an Austrian castle in 1998 was intended for Queen Elisabeth and Austrian authorities were alerted. Blanchard and seven others were arrested on charges including fraud and trafficking. The probe, Operation Kite, began after a Winnipeg bank heist in 2004 and involved millions gained through card fraud, mortgage fraud and robberies across continents.
