Living Large at the RNC
Question: What do Young Buck, Keith Murray and Gabriel Schwartz all have in common?
Answer: They were all robbed while in possession of large amounts of cash and jewelry.
Question: What do they not have in common?
Answer: While Young Buck and Keith Murray are rappers who were robbed in nightclubs, Gabriel Schwartz is an attorney who was robbed at the Republican National Convention.
That’s right. Gabriel Schwartz is no rapper, although with the cash and jewelry he carries on him, you might think he’s one. Mr. Schwartz is actually a Denver attorney and delegate at this year’s RNC in Minnesota who was robbed of $50,000 in cash and jewelry (some reports claim the amount is as high as $120,000).
The unfortunate events that transpired are an all too familiar story, events some might assume to be an urban legend”a beautiful woman lures a single man back to a hotel, where instead of giving him the night of his life, she slips him a mickey and takes everything he’s got. When he wakes up, he finds the woman gone along with all his possessions.
But even if this is a clichéd MO, it still raises some pretty harrowing questions in the case of Mr. Schwartz”what was he doing carrying around $50,000 in cash and jewelry at the RNC? And why did his attacker sexually assault him (as this story claims) in addition to robbing him?
Perhaps we will never know the answers to these and other very important questions, but for those seeking insight into the mind of Gabriel Nathan Schwartz, this interview done at the RNC may help:

This story reeks of an attempt to defraud an insurance company. I’m not saying that’s the case, only that it smells like it.
Who on earth has $120K of valuables in a hotel room?
