Stolen Marc Chagall painting to be returned after 30 yearsA Marc Chagall painting stolen from a New York couple's home in 1988 will be returned to the family's estate after nearly 30 years, the FBI says. The Chagall was recovered last year after a Washington, DC gallery owner twice refused to purchase the painting. "We took the case from there," said Special Agent Marc Hess, a member of the FBI Art Crime Team. "Well-documented and known art is very hard to move once it has been stolen," said FBI Supervisory Special Agent Tim Carpenter. Statute of limitations laws on the robbery have expired, which means the suspected thief and the Maryland man will not face charges.
