Prison Warden Not Guilty In Dali Theft

An assistant deputy warden at New York’s Ryker’s Island jail was found not guilty of masterminding the theft of a Salvador Dali drawing. “The $250,000 drawing, which depicts Christ’s crucifixion, was signed and dedicated by the artist to Rikers inmates in 1965, and was displayed in a case near the entrance of the Eric M. Taylor Center. The artwork has not been recovered.”
