Is a mother's love strong enough to cause the destruction of masterpieces worth millions of dollars? If the confession of the mo
ther of an accused art thief is to be believed, the answer is yes. The story begins in October of 2012, when works by Picasso, Monet, Matisse, and others were stolen from a museum in the Netherlands.

She placed all the paintings in a wood-burning stove and set them afire. Initial forensic investigation of the stove indicates that Dogaru is telling the truth and the art was burned.
