On February 23, the Federal Bureau of Investigations interviewed Luca Weston, the COO of Weston Jewelers and a suspect in the grand heist that left expensive diamonds and jewelry missing. During the interview, Luca inadvertently revealed that there was a fourth Weston sibling. Initially, the FBI believed there were only three children, Jack, Luca, and Elsa Weston.
Luca’s admission could potentially lead the FBI to discover a new suspect, and possibly the final culprit. According to two anonymous agents, the FBI requested the birth certificates of the Weston siblings, and a fourth was turned in to them. It was on this fourth birth certificate that the FBI discovered that there was a second Jack Weston. He has the same name as the original Jack Weston, but a different birthday. Since the Weston family filed for bankruptcy shortly after the now-unknown Jack was born, anonymous agents believe that he was abandoned by his parents or put up for adoption because of financial issues within the family. There is also suspicion that he is now going by a different name.
While the FBI is unsure of where the missing Jack Weston is, or what name he may be using now, they are certain that he keeps in touch with all the Weston siblings, Elsa, Luca, and the original Jack. More information is to come regarding this discovery and the paths it will open for the investigation.
