Part 2:​ Forensics Article ​ Read and CATCH Annotate the article below:
JERUSALEM, Israel​. It took some time, but Israeli police detectives have finally cracked one
of the Middle Eastern country's greatest crimes: the legendary ​heist​ of a valuable clock
collection from a Jerusalem museum.

The theft, which took place on April 15, 1983, went down as the costliest in Israel's history. It
saw 106 timepieces vanish from Jerusalem's L.A. Mayer Museum for Islamic Art. The
timepieces were worth millions of dollars. Among them was a pocket watch valued at more
than $30 million. The watch had been specially made for French queen Marie Antoinette by
famous watchmaker Abraham-Louis Breguet.

For more than two decades, police were perplexed by the heist. Then, in 2006, investigators
got their first break in the case. The museum reported that it paid some $40,000 to an
anonymous​ American woman to buy back 40 of the stolen timepieces. Included in the group
was the famed Marie Antoinette watch. Police experts specializing in ​forensic science
examined the recovered clocks. Additionally, detectives questioned the lawyer who handled
the sale.

The ​investigation​ led to an Israeli woman by the name of Nili Shamrat. Shamrat was living in Los Angeles, California.
​ otorious​ Israeli thief. He conducted a string of
Police identified her as the widow of one Naaman Diller. Diller was a n
large-scale thefts in the 1960s and 1970s before fleeing to Europe and eventually to the United States. There, he died in
2004. Diller had been one of the initial police suspects in 1983. However, a lack of evidence linking him to the crime had
halted the investigation.

In May 2008, the case having been revived, Israeli and American police officers arrived at the home of Shamrat to question
her. There, they discovered more of the stolen clocks.

Oded Yaniv is one of the investigators who broke the case. Yaniv called the investigation a "once-in-a-lifetime" experience.
Diller was known in Israel for daring break-ins and an ability to remain one step ahead of the law. He was also known for
researching potential robbery sites for hours and employing creative methods of carrying out his crimes.

"He was a legendary robber. He was very different, very intelligent," Yaniv said. "We are all disappointed that we don't
have the chance to sit and talk to him and investigate him. We feel like we missed out on that."

Nevertheless, detectives have pieced together the crime, which Diller, on his deathbed, had apparently confessed to his
wife. Given the extent of the heist, police had initially suspected that it was the work of at least three robbers. They were
shocked to discover that Diller had worked alone.

According to police, Diller had staked out the museum prior to the heist. He learned that the alarm was broken and that the
sole guard was stationed in the front. Then, concealed by a parked truck, Diller used a crowbar to bend the bars on a back
window of the museum. With the aid of a ladder, he climbed inside.

Police spokesperson Shmulik Ben-Ruby said Diller's thin body enabled him to slither unnoticed through the opening in the
bars. He did this several times throughout the night. The clocks, Ben-Ruby said, were generally small enough to pass
easily through the opening. However, Diller had the expertise to disassemble clocks if necessary.

Yaniv said that about 40 clocks remain missing, but police are following leads on where Diller might have scattered the
goods around the world. Rachel Hasson is the museum's artistic manager. She is excited to have recovered the majority of
the collection. Hasson plans to have the clocks back on display soon.
