FReeper Sleuths! Gary Condit and the Mystery of the Chandra Levy Pinky Ring!

From the New York Post:

"Police believe this missing tiny pinkie ring could be the key to solving the Chandra Levy murder case.

A gift from her mother, Susan in 1998, it was one of the 24-year-old Bureau of Prisons intern's most cherished possessions and her family has said she wore it constantly.

The 14-carat gold ring was bought for $416 and has two diamond chips and the initials "CL" inscribed.

But it was not among the personal items found during the extensive police search of the wooded hillside in Rock Creek Park where Levy's remains were discovered last week, Washington police spokesman Joseph Gentile said yesterday. "

After doing an exhaustive search of my own image archive, I could only find one image where Chandra is shown wearing a ring (below left). This ring happens to be on her ring finger and NOT on her pinky as has been reported in the press. Certainly, it may be a different ring, but it might just be the one described above and pictured below.

In this thread, FReepers brigette and Helen, along with others, were discussing this ring and the ring on Condit's finger found in the photo below . I have also searched my personal news photo archive and simply cannot find another photo of Condit wearing ANY rings..or any ring at all!

Now, some would say that Condit would be insane to wear Chandra's ring, but I say he's a nut, and at this point in the investigation (I believe, August of 2001), a point where he took a little swipe at a photographer, he had this small ring on his finger? And if you were the guilty party and had the ring, what better place to keep it but on your very own finger.

Was this an act of Providence? Coincidence? Maybe both. But either way, I'd like to see, and the police should certainly see, an enlargement of that photo with Condit wearing a tiny little ring on his pinky finger.

So what gives FReepers? Can any of you find an image of Condit where he is wearing a ring on ANY of his fingers?

There is your mission!

(BTW, yes, I spell Pinky with a "y")

The only image I could find with a ring and Chandra together is the ONE I POSTED. It clearly is NOT a pinky ring, but for her regular ring finger. It may not be the same ring, but this is the only photo of her and a ring. Therefore, we are not talking about a PINKY ring, but a standard size woman's ring.

BTW, the Wash Times reported the ring as being found with the body. See my link in the first hundred posts. Others report it MISSING.

He wasn't a suspect. Besides, if he did the dirty deed on May 1st, he had plenty of time to dispose of the ring in the Potomac.

Why hold on to it? He doesn't strike me as a sentimental kind of guy. Easier to get rid of it as long as he didn't bungle it like he did with the watch box.

Oh come on Rich....you or someone like you did a Photoshop number on Condit's hand. I don't think he had the ring on when that photo was originally posted. I think someone tampered with it when the ring issue came to light. If I'm wrong, so be it....but you are an expert at photo tampering so you would know better than I!!! hugs, Sonserae

I don't see how a woman's pinkie ring would fit a man's little finger. I wear a size 3 ring on that finger and I don't know any guy who could get that small a ring on his pinkie finger or pinky finger, for that matter.

As Registered has pointed out numerous times, Chandra's ring is not a pinky ring, she was wearing it on her left-hand ring finger. I've known men who have slender fingers, my brother-in-law can get my size 5 wedding ring onto his pinky. Post #71 says it's been reported Chandra's ring was a size 4, and while possible, I say it's not likely Condit could have gotten a 4 past his knuckle. But we do need the precise size of her custom-made ring.

It's hard for me to tell, but it looks like he has a ring on his pinky in this picture.

"I have a lot of sympathy for President Clinton (because of) the public scrutiny he went through," says Condit (being pursued by photographers outside his D.C. apartment on July 26). (AP Photo/Stephen J. Boitano)

Re these folks challenging authenticity:

Just how were you to know BACK LAST YEAR that Chandra's body would be found sans (no) ring and cook up a photo of Condit to make him look bad? That photo was posted on FR last May, fer cryin' out loud.

Boy, I know some people are really unwilling to cast Condit in a bad light, but to accuse you of doctoring that photo to suit your own purposes is hitting below the belt.

Wow, that was an interesting disrupter incident.

Anyway, so really, what's the big deal about the pinky ring? If confirmed, all it does is further show that he had an affair with her(which the watchbox already does). It still doesn't add any proof that he murdered her. Some might say that maybe he took it off her body after murdering her, but what would be the motive for that? She would be identified sooner or later anyway, and wouldn't implicate him.

Interesting observation, but even if true how does it get us any closer to linking him to the murder?

Naw, just a valid line of inquiring. It would irresponsible not to question every item, motive, and circumstance. Just covering the bases.
