Diamond Gangster

The story of the biggest and most audacious robbery in history, the Millennium Dome diamond raid.

"Sports cars, Jaguars, sheep skins coats, sawn off shotguns, knuckle dusters and a cuppa o' Rosy Lee with my old mum; my locker was filled with the things that I chose to put in it."

Lee Wenham was born to be an arch criminal. With his sticky fingers firmly placed in many illicit pies, Wenham, who comes from a notorious Gypsy family, was set for a life of crime.

Now, in his 'no holds barred' memoir Lee details the hair-raising and often hilarious tales of his life of crime and how he became an integral part of the ill-fated Millennium Dome Diamond Heist as he and his gang attempted to steal jewellery worth a huge GBP350million.

The tale, involving digger ram-raids, speedboat escapes and the GBP200million Millennium Star diamond, is soon to be made into a new Netflix docudrama by master auteur, Guy Ritchie, set for release in Spring 2025.
