In addition, interesting to note is that there are few mysteries which occurred during the whole case. First, I have a question regarding the FBI surveillance before the robbery occurred. I mean, they already received info from their undercover informant Martin Pollakov that something big was going to happen in the next few weeks. So my question is on why the hell the FBI didn’t continue with their surveillance over their main suspects when they already had the information? Here’s their statement regarding the situation “The Illinois Bureau of Investigation maintained careful surveillance of the group for several weeks, but when no major burglary occurred until Sunday, October 13, 1974, the Bureau informed the Commission that it did not have sufficient manpower to continue such an extensive surveillance any longer.” Next question is on why DiFonzo got away so easily? Did he transfer the missing cash to someone from the higher circles in society or the Mob? Or maybe he simply transferred the cash to himself?

And the last interesting situation to note is that according to court reformer and criminal sleuth Sherman Skolnick, his investigation of the Purolator robbery showed different results from the official government version. Skolnick reported that the stolen $4.3 million were allegedly $25 million dollars and that a massive government corruption took place in the Purolator case. Obviously, we will never know.
