Blake Leibel and Leston Lawrence

Episode 035: Leston Lawrence privately sold almost 5 kilos of gold over a short period. He worked at the Royal Canadian Mint as a gold refiner, but could not explain where he'd obtained the gold he had been selling. If it came from the mint, how did he get it out without being discovered? The answers to these questions made for a story that went global.CONTENT WARNING: Dark Poutine is not for the faint of heart or squeamish.
