A new report on employee theft and embezzlement reveals that 2012 had both the largest corporate and municipal embezzlement cases in US history.

Months after the original heist, police have detained 31 suspects across three nations during an early-morning sweep Wednesday. 

18 people have been indicted in the scheme, which involved stealing raw copper from an Arizona mine, disguising it as scrap metal and then selling it to China via the black market. 

In Arizona, law enforcement just broke up a copper theft ring that stole $10 million in the metal. In Kansas, an energy firm hit by thefts said it will make ratepayers cover the losses.

Labor lawyers state that employees are often coerced into confessing, leading to a permanent blight on their employment records.

The FBI said it has identified the thieves who pulled off the 1990 theft of 13 artworks from Boston's Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, which stands as the costliest art theft in U.S. history.

It only took eight hands of poker for a whale, what casinos call a well recognized, big stakes bettor, being unfairly fed information on the hands of others, to scam players at an Australian casino of an estimated $33 million.

A judge has ordered the owner of a scrap yard where the remains of several stolen school buses were found held in lieu of bail on a charge unrelated to the case.
