From the Associated Press:
SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — Police say a woman stole two 14-karat gold bracelets — by swallowing them. An employee at Hy & Mike's Pawn and Bail Bonds told police he saw the woman put the bracelets in her mouth May 27. Court documents say Salt Lake City investigators confirmed it by watching the surveillance video.
The bracelets, valued around $2,000, have been recovered. Police spokesman Jeff Bedard says he doesn't know just how the jewelry was collected.
Norma Porchas, 41, was charged with retail theft. She has an unlisted phone number and could not be reached for comment Wednesday.
Porchas is scheduled to appear in court June 19.
And the bracelets? They're back on display at the pawn shop

This story made me laugh out loud.
LOL the poor person who buys those
Poor person who had to ... recover them.
I can't get the idea past my head how they recovered it. Do you think they made her take bottles and bottles of lax?! har har har! Goodluck to the new owner of the jewelry. Well-travelled item! har har
