You can probably guess how cops retrieved two pairs of swallowed earrings.
$769,000 Diamond Earrings Recovered after Florida Man Swallows Them
It took more than 12 days, but cops have retrieved two pairs of diamond earrings worth $769,000 that a Florida man stole and then swallowed on February 26th.
Jaythan Gilder pretended to be an Orlando Magic rep so he could get access to the earrings and then ran out of an Orlando Tiffany and Company.
Cops managed to stop him on Interstate 10 but couldn’t find the jewels.
Then, while in jail, Gilder randomly asked cops, “Will I be charged with what’s in my stomach?”
A body scan then found some foreign objects passing through his digestive system, with investigators waiting patiently until Gilder expelled them.
Tiffany’s has since thoroughly cleaned the earrings.
Gilder has 48 outstanding warrants in Colorado and wasted busted for stealing from a Texas Tiffany’s in 2022.
