We’ll be in 1949 East Camden, New Jersey and Green tries to answer: why the shooter did it and if anyone could have stopped him.

We’re now digging into a real Texas story. We’re talking about a brazen jewel thief in the 1960s who burgled some of the wealthiest homes in Dallas. But he was an odd thief. Sometimes he took just one diamond earring, probably because he knew it would ruin the set. He would put down a towel so he wouldn’t sully an expensive chair by stepping on it. Who was this jewel thief? Author Rena Pederson unfurls the story in her book, The King of Diamonds: The Search for the Elusive Texas Jewel Thief.
