Historian pleads guilty to document theft scheme Presidential historian pleads guilty to document theft, conspiracy for stealing from archives By The Associated Press

BALTIMORE (AP) ' A presidential historian, collector and author has pleaded guilty to conspiring to steal documents signed by leaders throughout U.S. history.

Barry Landau of New York City pleaded guilty Tuesday to taking documents from the Maryland Historical Society and conspiring with his assistant to steal documents from that institution and others in the Northeast with the intention of selling them.

The assistant pleaded guilty in October to the same charges: theft of major artwork and conspiracy to commit theft of major artwork.



Prosecutors say Landau schemed for years, if not decades, to steal valuable documents.
