I can't recall if it came out how they got the slabs. I remember the rumor that they were stolen off PSA's loading dock perhaps with inside help.
Yes this is an accurate summary of what took place. It was rumored that someone on the inside assisted with getting them the slabs. When I confronted Joe Orlando about the atrocious general cover up they were attempting to do, Joe actually laughed at how ridiculous my version was of the scandal and said it was nothing like what I had been told.

Of course not much later Joe also lied when I testified against him so I will go with my version of the WIWAG scandal and not the one that Joe refused to tell me or anyone else.
