Selfies of woman "dripping in diamonds" on cruise led to her arrest for jewelry theft, police say
A woman in the United Kingdom has been sentenced to 28 months in prison for jewelry theft, after selfies that showed her "dripping in diamonds" on a cruise tipped off a criminal investigation, police said. Lucy Roberts, 39, was convicted of stealing more than £124,000 worth of jewelry and cash from a luxury store that she previously managed, according to Humberside Police in northeastern England, where the scheme took place. The haul included diamonds, gold and silver pieces, with the total value of stolen items equating to around $170,000. Lucy Roberts Humberside Police Police said Roberts acquired the costly accessories during her tenure at the jewelry shop, when she would take items home with her and tell suspicious colleagues that she was just "sorting stock" for the store at her residence. Roberts left her job at the store after a year as its manager, police said. Then, from a cruise ship, she sent selfies to her former coworkers that pictured her wearing luxury jewels, which staff did not believe she'd purchased. "Without a care in the world, dripping in diamonds, thinking she had deceived everybody, Roberts arrogantly posed on social media and sent pictures boasting to her ex-colleagues about the great time she was having on holiday, not thinking they would realise what she had been doing," said Sgt. Krista Wilkinson, a detective with Humberside Police, in a statement. A police investigation found that Roberts had falsified stock inventory and made fraudulent returns to the store, prompting a search of her home where some stolen jewelry was found. More than 260 items were discovered "strewn around in boxes beneath the bed and in cupboards," Humberside Police said. Officers arrested Roberts at Heathrow Airport in London when she returned from the cruise. According to police, she was wearing stolen jewels, and more were found in her suitcase. They said body-worn camera footage showed Roberts at the airport attempting to remove and dispose of her jewelry. Roberts denied the theft allegations, according to police.

Thief stole £100k in diamonds from jewellery store favoured by Kate Middleton – and was arrested dripping in stolen gems
A BRAZEN thief stole £100,000 in diamonds from a jewellers loved by Kate Middleton. Lucy Roberts, 39, was caught red handed dripping in the gems she'd robbed from a Daniella Draper branch in the East Riding of Yorkshire. 3 3 The Princess of Wales, 43, has previously been seen donning a £1,070 personalised Gold Midnight Moon Necklace by Daniella Draper. The pendant was engraved with the letters G, L, C to represent her children, Prince George, 11, Princess Charlotte, 10, and Prince Louis, seven. The mother-of-three's delicate necklace was also decorate with three stars. Online, the product description reads: "The moon is universally representing the rhythm of time as it embodies the cycle. "The phases of the moon symbolise immortality, eternity and enlightenment." Meanwhile, Roberts, from Grimsby, had nicked the jewels while working as a manager at the store from 2017 to 2018. Officers detained her at Heathrow Airport when she came back from a cruise, wearing a "substantial amount" of the jewellery. The thief brazenly tried to discard the pieces as she was escorted through the airport. An investigation was sparked after Daniella Draper staff reported Roberts for taking pieces home with her under the guise she was sorting out stock. After pocketing the priceless items, the manager quit her job and jetted off to go on a luxury cruise. When employees noticed her boasting the jewellery in pictures, they flagged it with the area manager. The probe later uncovered she'd been creating false stock takes and registering fraudulent return transactions. Detectives from Humberside Police located 269 items worth a total value of £107,965 in Roberts' bedroom. When she was arrested, the criminal was dripping in around £1,015 of stolen items. And, about 22 items, estimated at around £13,880, were also uncovered in her suitcase. Roberts appeared at Grimsby Crown Court, where she admitted theft by an employee and was sentenced to 28 months in prison. Detective Sergeant Krista Wilkinson, of Humberside Police, said: 'Without a care in the world, dripping in diamonds, thinking she had deceived everybody, Roberts arrogantly posed on social media and sent pictures boasting to her ex-colleagues about the great time she was having on holiday, not thinking they would realise what she had been doing. 'From the photos she sent colleagues you could clearly see the high value and unique pieces that she was wearing which she had not purchased whilst working for the store. "Whilst the company may sell luxury products, they are still a business who rely on customers and sales to be able to continue to operate and contribute to the community. 'I am pleased she is now behind bars and I hope it will give her ample time to think about the crime she committed and how it has impacted not only the company, but the colleagues who considered her a friend and who were betrayed by her in such a trusted role." Speaking on court conclusion, a spokesperson for the store said: "We're pleased to finally have closure on the matter after several years. "We remain incredibly grateful to Humberside Police Force and our employees, who at the time of the investigation, worked tirelessly and diligently to bring about this outcome and for justice to be achieved." The beauty product which is 'key to Kate Middleton's glow' WHEN your schedule is as busy as Kate's, making the most of your beauty sleep is vital for maintaining glowing skin. She is known to make her skincare products work overtime when she's catching Zs by lathering up in elixirs. Insiders claim that the Beuti Skincare Beauty Sleep Elixir is her go-to, and she keeps a stash of bottles on her nightstand. The £47 product contains 14 plant-based oils that slow down the enzyme responsible for ageing and prevent the breakdown of collagen, the protein in our skin that stops it from sagging. Collagen gives skin a plump appearance but starts deteriorating in our mid-20s, so Kate is beating the natural ageing process by delaying how quickly it breaks down.
