Folge 58: Diamantendiebin - Doris Payne

Gründlicher geht Diebstahl nicht. Eleganter auch nicht. Diese Frau arbeitet überwiegend alleine, und zwar überwiegend clever. So clever, dass die Presse sie später „Ocean´s One“ nennt. Sie selbst gibt sich gleich mehrere Namen, die sie in mehrere Personaldokumente schreiben lässt. Ihre lange Karriere als Verbrecherin ist rekordverdächtig in vielerlei Hinsicht, ihre Kleider sind wunderschön und beeindruckend teuer – das einzig unbezahlbare in dieser Geschichte ist aber ganz klar ihr Nervenkostüm.
