Guest: Peter Edwards, crime reporter

The theft of $20 million in gold and other high-end items from Pearson airport was likely a well-planned professional job, but authorities are tight lipped about what happened so we are left to only speculate. To gain insight, long-time organized crime journalist Peter Edwards reached out to a former professional criminal (who did prison time for his role in a securities heist) to discuss how such a heist could happen at Canada's largest airport. Edwards takes us through what it takes to pull something like this off and compares the incident to other high profile and bizarre heists in Canadian history.

This episode was produced by Brian Bradley, Paulo Marques and Raju Mudhar.
