In a bizarre turn of events, detectives monitored 32-year-old Jaythan Gilder for over two weeks after he ingested two pairs of Tiffany & Co. diamond earrings valued at $769,500 (£597,000) during a robbery. Gilder was apprehended on February 26th after posing as an assistant to an NBA player to access the jewelry in a Tiffany store VIP room. It is reported that he distracted store staff before stealing the earrings and fleeing, during which he also dropped a diamond ring worth $587,000. Upon his capture, Gilder was seen swallowing objects believed to be the stolen jewelry, leading to his hospital observation until the earrings were expelled from his system on March 12th. Gilder currently faces multiple charges and has an extensive criminal history, including numerous warrants in other states.
