The Butterfly Heist

The Butterfly Heist

Kelly Morton

Cincinnati, OH


“Dateline” parody of the Krohn Conservatory butterfly heist.

“Dateline” comes to Cincinnati in this parody that goes behind the scenes of the real-life 2018 Krohn Conservatory butterfly show, where a rare butterfly was stolen … and maybe murdered. The true culprit remained in the shadows – until now.
