This is an entirely new level of entitlement.

Basically, because of the massive publicity, the thief cannot sell the good through pawn shops or other channels. So the thief is trying to ransom the goods back to the owner. That's probably why the sentimental items were offered up, like the locket containing a souvenir of her son's hair. So this has turned into something more like a kidnapping and ransom case.

mmm I'm betting the whole things a hoax, though I did get a chuckle.

I wonder if he filed a lawsuit and it came across a Liberal Judges desk would the suit go forward?

Depends if we're going to start arguing "being wealthy" could be harmful, ya know, like hot coffee.

Not even close. He can't sell the goods because they are all fake. Paste jewelry knock off handbags forged labels. Total fake. Worthless junk.

Or they're not fakes but because the publicity makes it difficult to fence the goods, he now wants to screw the owner by claiming them as fakes and thus throwing a monkey wrench in the insurance claims.

How though will the insurance company prove that they items were fakes? Subpoena the thief to give testimony? Hah!
