Apparantly the J.Paul Getty museum right here in Cali is under investigation, getting sued by both Greece and Italy and has been proposed to have aquired thier masterpieces on display by LOOTING.

That's right, they got thier shit the old fashioned way, which is probably why they never charged to enter thier facility...*snicker*

To sum up the drama going on up in the hills:
- Italian authorities identified looted material in the Getty collection.

-The Los Angeles Times obtained records from the Getty museum, and found officials may have known as early as 1985 that their suppliers were selling looted objects.

-The Italian government is seeking the return of 42 of the objects

-the museum have identified 82 illegally purchased artworks. More than half of those are considered masterpieces.

-The former head of shit there is under investigation by the FBI for a totally separate and independent claim of fraudulent spending and some other money laundering issues.

A 5-foot marble statue of Apollo is among the masterpieces illegally purchased.

Wow.
