There is your lead: Kim says, 'they gonna kill me'?
The sellers were killed, NOT THE BUYERS!!!!
Weird statement from her. Yes, she should be checked out more extensively.
What a bunch of weird "look-at-me/I have lots of stuff" people.

I think scar-face and the lady jeweler need to be looked at.

Have they investigated those who got scammed by that nerd millionnaire guy that gave the girl everything?

the jewels are long gone and would not be so surprising if kept intact--just not in NA-- they probably flew out within a week and in good custody of russian/ ukranian mafia. when in central erope or russia--nobody will ever nterfere with such jewelry.probably member of the club and past client of Bentley. Not so sure that little scarface really had much to do for set-up or arranging meeting with Mr Big. Bentley could have used both tardi and Little Scarface as decoys because it wold have been somebody who knew the jewelry and seen it previously and even 5million would have been easy to toss off. Somebody with own plane to get in and out of ariports more effectively. Taking a carry-on loaded with diamonds could be problematic on commercial airlines like give the baggage-checker a ehart attack-- but flying private plane, probably the jewelry cuold be managed discreetly. US officials probably don't interfere too much with some people.. and for that matter, they could have even gone out in diplomtic bag.Some sheik or new russian billionaire could probably arrange such things. but break them apart? somebody who wants that kind o jewelry, wants it in one piece to show off and in lots of places of he world, you can wear it in public without any problem.

What a scanky,greedy female. She will answer for her misdeeds someday. I hope the family gets justice. I think the families of these two men should sue her for wrongful death. She gets to just move on with her life. She should have come forward as soon as the murder happened. She is pure evil, I feel sorry for her children.

Stinks of mafia. Ordinary street thugs can't keep their mouth shut for 10 yrs.

Greed coupled with temptation is an easy meal for just about anyone. To succumb is too easy but to realize what one has done and admit shortcomings is tough. Guilt follows and one is left either feeling his neck is in a short rope from a tall tree or else given a reprieve by a long rope and gives thanks for a second chance. It ain't easy to say 'sorry', 'forgive me' or whatever. And not one of us would be right in judging.

I guess we're so supposed to be impressed by how much the jewels cost. I'm not, because they only cost that much, based on the amount of labor required to obtain and produce them, and the fact people are dumb enough to pay those high prices.
