    I think more importantly:
    "Figueroa said records show it has been registered since 1988 in New Jersey, Florida and Washington state. It’s unclear how it could be registered in those states without being flagged as stolen."
    Hiding in plain sight?

    Just wondering who is going to have a loss. The new Dutch owner or the seller? (especially if he had been in good faith, was not aware that it was stolen 23 years earlier)

    Ever heard the phrase "holding the bag" .....it applies here. The last party is only left with civil court , 99% of the time law enforcement will not follow the trail. Same unfortunately applies to Fraud , in general , in the US. Unless possibly , if you have friends in high places.
