My name is Suzanne Kenney. In 1991 and 1992, over a four-to-five-month period, my mother was sold masterpieces at her flea market booth in Okeechobee, Florida. Most of you know this story, but for the newcomers: I am sharing the evidence again.

I make no apologies if my persistence is uncomfortable. There is no rule book for how to handle a decades-long cover-up involving billionaires and stolen masterpieces. My refusal to go away is what finally forced the mask to slip.

The Man in the Airstream

My mother was visited by a man calling himself "Ed Koch." He specifically told her how to say it—"Koch, like the Mayor of New York." He was using the Mayor as a phonetic shield; he didn't want her knowing he belonged to the "Coke" (Koch) family of Palm Beach.

This was a time before cell phones and the internet. There were no phone numbers exchanged and no Google to verify a face. Looking back, the geography tells the story: Okeechobee is just 45 minutes from William Koch’s home in Palm Beach. At that time, William was winning the America’s Cup (May 1992). He had spent years and $65 million for that moment. He didn't have time for art drama or the chaos following the murder of Bobby Donati, so he "tucked him away" in a brand-new Airstream trailer at an RV park right across the street from the flea market. He was selling off a $100 million "checklist" of masters—Van Gogh, Picasso, Manet—some cut from their frames.

The 2002 Trigger and the Gatekeeper

They knew my mother still had this artwork as early as 2002. That was the year I sold two paintings on eBay. If you view the original 2002 eBay listing for the Picasso drawing, you will see I stated the purchase date was "around 1992-1993." At the time, I was working from memory. However, forensic evidence and a 1992 Sotheby’s contract have since confirmed the correct window was 1991 and 1992.

That year I also physically visited the Calder Foundation in New York. I provided the provenance: 'Ed Koch, deceased, from a flea market in Okeechobee.' I am certain the Foundation contacted the brothers; the billionaires.

Three years after that visit (2005), they installed their gatekeeper: Anthony Amore. It was 2010 when we discovered Ed Koch was Frederick R. Koch. For 15 years, I didn't realize I was battling a curated narrative designed to protect the elite. But my "Never Give Up" attitude finally broke him. His 2025 crude "Heywood Jablomey" message on my Change.org petition was the crack in the facade that finally led me past the corruption to the doors of Harvard and the Attorney General.

The February 11, 2012 "Coincidence"

Yesterday, I discovered the most ironic piece of this puzzle. On February 11, 2012, I attended a major art event in Palm Beach where Robert Wittman was speaking. I had told him months in advance I would be there. He never replied, but the Koch brothers showed up.

Three of them stood by the doors—laughing and talking—marking the exits. David Koch actually tried to stumble over me to make sure I knew he was there. After seeing them there that day, I was prepared to talk to them, but they stayed by the doors. There to intimidate me at the invitation of the FBI.

Now, Google what day the FBI "discovered" the art list in Robert Gentile’s basement and you will find—on that very same day—February 10/11, 2012—the FBI "discovered" the art list in Robert Gentile’s basement.

The very same day the brothers were physically monitoring me in Palm Beach, the FBI was "finding" a mobster’s list to ensure the media stayed focused on the Mafia and away from the Kochs. They used Gentile to create noise and drown out a $100 million art story. I didn't even know about the art heist at this point.
They forced us to age-date the Calders—which proved they were from the right time period—yet the Foundation still refused to authenticate. I want that "Gentile list" age-dated.

Here is the irony: The FBI pushed the Gentile story into the news to drown out my mother's truth, but that is exactly what made me solve it. I sat there frustrated, watching the FBI give the 1990s art heist story national attention while ignoring my mother’s $100 million art story. In June of 2012-that frustration is what made me finally read about the heist and now I realize: They knew my mother’s artwork was the list that would solve the whole thing. They were using Gentile's list to block anyone paying attention to my mother's list. Click here to read what that list solved.

The Quest for Veritas

Harvard’s motto is VERITAS (TRUTH). I have landed at their door. The Harvard attorneys and the AG cannot ignore the "Heywood Jablomey" incident or the coordinated suppression of my mother's evidence. While I believe they will ultimately choose to do the right thing, I will not remain silent while hoping that happens. The truth has waited long enough.

I cannot go to bed knowing the world is being lied to and believing it. Together, we can finally give the world the truth.

The Golden Age of Immunity (1983–1990)

• • 1983: Frederick and William Koch settle their lawsuit against brothers Charles and David, walking away with $1.1 Billion. The "Architects" now have unlimited liquidity to fund the next phase without oversight.

  • 1984–1986: The Infrastructure Build (Miami) With the cash secured, Frederick Koch builds the machine to clean the assets. My research here.

    • 1984: He becomes VP of "Art Restoration Corp" in Miami.

    • 1986: He establishes "International Art Trading".

• The Proof: Documents confirm he was operating as "Ed Koch" in Miami for years before he introduced himself as "Ed Koch" to my mother. He didn't invent the alias at the flea market; he incorporated it.  These addresses are on the block of MOCA.

Connecting the "Architect's" Dots: The Forensic Signature

• The "Cut from Frame" Brand: The Gardner (1990), Houghton Hall (1990), and the artwork sold to my mother (1991–92) all share the same "signature": hastily cut edges.

• The Avian Obsession: A thematic trail of birds connects the thefts:

  • The Napoleon Eagle Finial (Gardner Stolen)

  • The White Duck (Houghton Hall Stolen)

  • The Snowy Egret, Pelican, and Parakeets by Jane Peterson (Sold to my mother)

• The 18-Year Rembrandt Cycle: The gap between the 1972 Montreal Rembrandt and the 1990 Gardner Rembrandt represents a billionaire's "holding period." This wasn't about quick cash; it was about private ownership.
  

The Aftermath Trail (1991–2025)

The 1990s

• Dec 21, 1990: Mary Robinson Koch (Frederick’s mother) passes away.
• Sept 24, 1991: Gardner suspect Robert Donati is murdered.
• Oct 7, 1991 (13 Days Later): A massive "suspicious" fire at the James Bourlet & Sons warehouse in London. They "burn" some type of evidence.
• Nov 1991: "Ed Koch" (Frederick R. Koch) appears at an Okeechobee flea market. He sells the "damaged" checklist to my mother, Mary, for mere dollars.
• March 1992: My mother visits Sotheby's they are willing to sell only the Jane Peterson on Kodak paper but none of the rest. The value they give it isn't what Mr. Koch says it is worth. So she decides to wait until he visits her at the flea market again so she can get answers.
• March 1992: Ed Koch's departure via theatrical hospital scene and obituary.
• April 20, 1992: Sotheby’s signs a contract with my mother for the Jane Peterson painting, proving the timeline of events. Sale was September 25, 1992. Didn't sell at auction, but had an aftersale private offer. My mother declined the offer.

• Nov 2000: Charles Darwin's notebooks, including the famous "Tree of Life" sketch, were first discovered missing in January 2001 from Cambridge University Library, though they were last seen in November 2000 after being removed for photography, with the library concluding they were stolen around that time.
• Feb 2002: I contact the Calder Foundation to submit the drawings, stating "Ed Koch, deceased" as the provenance from a flea market in Okeechobee in 1990 - though we later determined I was off by a year it was 1991 and 1992. I am sure Mr. Rower contacted the Koch brothers and they knew exactly what to say. They are the billionaires and get accusations against them all the time.
• Feb 2002: Sold two paintings on eBay. If you view the original 2002 eBay listing for the Picasso drawing
• Nov 2005: Anthony Amore is hired as the Director of Security and Chief Investigator, a position created specifically to recover the stolen art.

• July 2010: My mother gifts me the Calder drawings and asked me to help her try to figure out her story again. Asked me to put her story and the artwork on the internet. I created Looking-For-Ed-Koch.com. 
• October 3, 2010: Frederick R. Koch is found and I change the domain for the website to TheArtworkStory.com
• 2011: I resubmit the drawings to the Calder Foundation. I have now found the note that states "Hokin Gallery" and "Mrs. Clifford the housekeeper." I have also discovered that "Ed Koch" is actually Frederick R. Koch.
• July 5th 2011: Anthony Amore releases Stealing Rembrandt: Focuses on the history of Rembrandt heists. Published just months before the 2012 "Gentile List" discovery. What he writes about he is being paid to divert you attention from the true narrative with their narrative.
• Feb 10 2012:  FBI raids Robert Gentile's home and find the "list". I want this document age dated. They made us age date the Calders and still didn't listen afterwards. 
• Feb 11 2012: I meet Robert Wittman at an event, and he has the Koch brothers (Charles, David, and William) there with him.
• April 2012: I had the paper tested, which confirmed it is from the correct time period. Erich Speckin
• June 2012: I solve the ISGM heist by connecting the "checklist" of art sold to my mother. After seeing the heist in the news.
• Here is where I wait to allow the "SILENCE" to do their job. Fast forward 2026 no one has done their job... For a whistleblower SILENCE doesn't mean they are helping it means they aren't.
• March 18, 2013: Nine months after I handed the FBI the solution, they suddenly announced they had "solved" the case but wouldn't name the suspects. Two years later (2015), they claimed the thieves were dead. It was a convenient way to close the case—except the men I identified (Koch and Olsen) were still alive and well.
• July 14, 2015: Anthony Amore releases The Art of the Con: Focuses on forgeries and fakes—positioning him as the ultimate authority on what is "real" vs. "fake."

• March 2018:  Mailed binder evidence - White House Mar A Lago Ivanka Trump Fox News Museum – DELIVERED. Fox News was delivered on March 20, 2018 at 1:24 pm after its journey (view that receipt here) -  view all the evidence on this page.
  
• March 20, 2018: Anthony Amore officially announced his candidacy for Secretary of the Commonwealth.
• Aug 23, 2019: David Koch dies. He was the most public and politically shielded of the brothers. The Darwin Notebooks were stolen for David Koch in 2000.
• Feb 12, 2020: Frederick R. Koch dies. The primary architects are now off the board. Only two witnesses remain: William Koch and John Olsen. Plus Anthony Amore as the gatekeeper.
• Oct 2020: Only after both brothers are deceased does Cambridge University finally "admit" the Darwin notebooks were stolen. For 20 years, they claimed the books were simply "misplaced"—waiting for a deathbed return that the Koch deaths finally triggered. I sent a tip and got confirmation see my youtube about it.
  The Return: The "Happy Easter" note in a pink bag is the same "Theatricality" as the "Portrait of a Rabbi" returned in a box by a man in a wig. It proves they treat these returns as a game.
• Nov 10, 2020: Anthony Amore releases The Woman Who Stole Vermeer: Focuses on Rose Dugdale and the 1974 Russborough House heist.

• Feb 2022: I begin writing Crime & Canvas (officially published October 2022). My goal is a public "audit" of the evidence the system has ignored for decades.

• May 28, 2025: Launched Change.org petition
• May 28, 2025: Heywood Jablomey from Mattapoisett, Ma signed Change.org peition. See the screenshot taken 2 days later.
• Oct 2025: Anthony Amore publicly stated again that "recovering the stolen items is more important than prosecuting the criminals."
• Nov 4, 2025: Anthony Amore releases The Rembrandt Heist: His most recent work, doubling down on historical thefts.
• Dec 1, 2025: A formal Legal Inquiry is sent for Breach of Fiduciary Duty. If the Board is suppressing evidence to protect a billionaire donor, the Trust is forfeited to Harvard.
• Dec 2025: Bill (William) Koch announced he is auctioning dozens of masterpieces from his "Visions of the West" collection at Christie's. Including his Wyeths.

The Scripted Narrative

I have asked myself this many times lately: why would anyone, especially Anthony Amore, dedicate an entire career to being the gatekeeper of a lie?

I only established his true role in December of 2025. I believe his "final reward"—the payoff for a career spent building a reputation as an expert, writing books, and giving high-profile lectures—was meant to be the "Great Recovery." He was positioned to be the hero who, when given the signal by the invisible empire that hired him, would finally "solve" the heist. He wanted the glory of being the one to return the artwork after years of "tracking it down."

My mother’s story, and my 15-year refusal to let it die, is the only thing jeopardizing that scripted finale. The "Heywood Jablomey" insult wasn't just a lapse in judgment; it was the mask slipping from a man who realizes his final prize is being dismantled by the truth.

My question to those in power is simple: Are all of you truly going to allow this to continue? Are you prepared to stand behind Anthony Amore and the narrative he was paid to create? Or will you finally stand with Truth?

Suzanne has been actively making claims of solving the heist since June 21, 2012 to ROBERT WITTMAN (did nothing) and the fire January 24, 2011 to JULIAN RADCLIFFE (did nothing). 

Discovered Mr. Koch was Frederick R. Koch August of 2010. No cease and desist.
15 years of being undisputed!
