New York City, 1972.Bobby Comfort and Sammy ';the Arab' Nalo were highly skilled jewel thieves who specialized in robbing luxury Manhattan hotels.

With the blessing of the Lucchese Crime Family, their next plot targeted the posh Pierre Hotelhost to kings and queens, presidents and aldermen, and the wealthiest of the wealthy.

Attired in tuxedoes and driven in a limousine, this band of thieves arrived at the Pierre, seized the security guards and, in systematically choreographed moves, swiftly took the night staffand several unfortunate guests who happened to be roaming about the lobbyas hostages.The deposit boxes inside the vault chamber were plundered and the gentlemanly thieves departed in their limousine with a haul of $28 million.

But then matters began to deteriorate. The authorities immediately suspected Comfort and Nalo of masterminding The Pierre ambush and arrested them, but the veteran criminals kept their mouths shut.

The Lucchese Family funneled a $500,000 bribe to the presiding judge to quash the chargesand to this day The Pierre Hotel caper remains unsolved.
