18. The Shaws Started Calling Himself Indiana Jones
Pawn shops love receiving artifacts because there are a large number of collectors that will purchase these items at a high price. In fact, it’s these types of things that help keep the doors to most shops open. Therefore, it didn’t take long for Shaw to start selling the artifacts at pawn shops, online, and at American flea markets.
When people started to question Shaw, he gave them an Indiana Jones type story, but the FBI didn’t buy his story. With a search warrant, authorities found hundreds of ancient artifacts around the Shaw home.
