Welcome back to another episode of Scream and Sugar, your true crime coffee hour!  Hang with us today as we snack on the famous Insomnia Cookies from Reno's late-night cookie shop and listen as Candace takes us into one of the most audacious art thefts in history.
Rose Dugdale was born into a life of luxury - an old money heiress with connections to English aristocracy. As she aged she became infatuated with extreme politics, and eventually joined the IRA and pulled off one of the most notorious art heists of all time.  
Picture it: the serene Irish countryside, 1974, Russborough House, a stately mansion brimming with priceless art. With precision and daring, her gang bypasses security, taking off with masterpieces by Vermeer, Goya, and Rubens, among others. It wasn’t just the audacity of the theft that captivated the world, but the unbelievable life of Dugdale herself. This tale intertwines art, politics, and betrayal, making the Russborough Heist a story that’s as complex as it is thrilling. J
Join us as we unravel the layers behind Rose Dugdale's most notorious caper, and don't forget to stay spooky, ya'll!

Edit to add: Coincidentally, Rose Dugdale passed away on March 18, 2024. RIP Rose!
