Winona Ryder who was convicted of shoplifting more than $5000 worth of clothing and accessories from Beverly Hills' Saks Fifth Avenue in 2002 is in the middle of yet another accessories crisis.
Winona rocked a Bulgari diamond bracelet and ring worth more than $125,000 at the Marie Claire awards in Madrid last week. The problem is, the jewels were on loan and Winona's set was not returned, according to Voici, a French celebrity gossip magazine.
Winona said she put the jewelry in an envelope and handed it to the front desk at the hotel before she flew back to Los Angeles, but the hotel surveillance cameras do not show any sign of her doing that.

What’s that they say about “karma”? Didn’t her sentence for shoplifting get suspended, or didn’t she get lightly punished for that?
Maybe she really is a professional klepper.
Lost? I think not. Ask Barack, maybe he knows the fence.
Sometimes I’d like to ‘lose’ something that expensive, but then I realized they didn’t look as great as I thought they should.
Kleptomaniac: A person who has kleptomania.She's sick and needs to be in a hospital, not a jail (imo).
Kleptomania: An obsessive impulse to steal regardless of economic need.
Winona doesn't believe she should have to pay for her irresponsibility?

what dumbass would loan it to her? they deserve what they got...
How very kind and gracious of her to try to pin her crime on the innocent hotel employees. Now there’s a lefty you gotta love.
"Doughy" and "middle-aged" aptly describes Winona these days. I'm surprised to read she still gets invited to the big parties. I've figured she's entered the "straight to video" chapter in her career.
Surely she would have gotten a receipt for the jewels. If so, she can prove that she turned them in. Otherwise, she’s either a fool, or a thief.
Perhaps both.
“Ask Barack, maybe he knows the fence.”
Actually Barack had it melted down and remade into his wife’s new $30,000 ring!
She’s almost up to “cameo in a porn flick” status.

Kleptomania is not a crime. It is an alternative lifestyle and they should not be treated as criminals. Just ask the pro-homosexual movement. Klepto rights now!
They can’t help it, they were born that way.
“When I borrow something and lose it, I pay for it.”
Oh, now — you know that’s only for the little people. Winona is a star!
Winona is toast. She’s going to have hard time borrowing any more bling, plus how many of the celebrity circuit hotels are going to be willing to comp suites to some nutcase who tries to pin their employees with grand theft?
