It's Crye-Leike
Who leaves a purse with $10,000 worth of rings in it sitting on a porch and truly expects it to be still sitting there the next day?
"Stolen purse held expensive jewelry". Why, you just know it did.
Looks like an insurance claim to me. If it was left on the porch,then they must not of thought too much of it then. But now its worth almost ten thousand. Give me a break.Who are they tring to kid????
Oh come on guys what makes u think anyone would do such a thing. Ha.
wow, a expensive bunch of jewelry in a bag, but you forget it on a porch of a house?
Must not have meant alot to that lady.
why wasn't the jewlery being worn?
As a person who has left their purse a few times and who has taken their rings off for reasons relating to swelling/skin irritation, I understand fully.
I'm not trustworthy enough to leave mine like that though. I would be likely to lock my purse in the car (but then I might also forget and lock my keys in it also).
I know I frequently am running through my next few hours schedule in my head so that I lose track of what I am presently doing. Maybe a fault, but we all have 'em.
I agree with stardust! I've been known to put jewelry in my purse also. I learned my lesson after having a $3,000.00 ring stolen out of mine. I was planning to sell it because my ex-husband gave it to me and I had no intentions of ever wearing it again. It doesn't matter why they were in her purse, they were hers. I didn't file a claim because mine was taken by a relative. If they can live with it, I can live without it!!!
Having the rings in her purse wasn't the big problem in my opinion it was leaving it on a porch of somewhere she didn't apparently even live.
Dianatn I agree with your comment also, not very smart! When I go somewhere and dont need my purse I lock it in the car and carry my keys.
