WTF was he doing bringing a Million euro worth of diamonds to a hotel in Ballymun for ???

Surely a 5 star city centre hotel would have been a safer bet

My name is URL

Would it matter what hotel it was though? It was obviously a planned robbery, and sounds very suspect to me tbh

I wouldn't call it a hiest.

What the hell is a diamond salesman doing with a load of diamonds?

Sounds fishy to me.

Buying a caravan?

This is all very snatch-esque I am just waiting to hear that a Russian and and an Italian with 4 fingers were involved in the plot.

i suspect he means that if you want your caper to be called a heist, it should be a bit more sophisticated than kicking in a door, beating up a guy and running away with the loot!

Think conmen, disguises, laser-grids, unbeatable locks etc

this is just a common robbery!!

Did it have a David Holmes soundtrack? If it did then it's a heist.

It's known as a hiest. Slightly different from a heist for the reasons you outlined above.

Can't wait to hear the nickname Paul Williams gives to the thief.

The Irish Times said it was in the Travelodge when it happened.

1 million worth of Diamonds - did he not think about leaving them in the Hotel Safe?

I wonder were they insured and whose insurance would cover it ?

Travelodge?
