SAVANNAH, Ga. (AP) - Police say a housekeeper stole and tried to
pawn thousands of dollars worth of jewelry belonging to Food
Network star and celebrity chef Paula Deen.
Savannah-Chatham police tell the Savannah Morning News they went
to Deen's Wilmington Island home on May 3 on a report of about
$100,000 worth of men's and women's jewelry that had vanished
within the past year.
Deen's husband Michael Anthony Groover told police the couple
had caught housekeeper 47-year-old Mary Alice White with some
jewelry and had fired her.
Authorities charged White on May 5 with theft. They say she was
caught trying to pawn a pair of $18,000 earrings at a Savannah
pawnshop.
When contacted by The Associated Press, White denied the
allegations and hung up.
