TL;DR Summary

Five men from the notorious Remmo Clan in Berlin have been convicted and sentenced for their role in the 2019 heist of a hundred-million dollar royal jewelry collection from the Green Vault in Dresden, Germany. The men used a pneumatic Jaws of Life tool to break into the museum and stole 21 lavish pieces, including a ceremonial sword, brooches, pendants, headwear, necklaces, buttons, and two diamond-encrusted epaulets. Most of the loot was returned, but some pieces are still missing or damaged. The men were sentenced to prison time ranging from 4 years and 4 months to 6 years and 3 months, and the state is seeking nearly €89 million in damages.
