NC State auctions off busted drug dealers confiscated jewlery

On Thursday, the North Carolina Department of Revenue is auctioning off all of the jewelry that they've confiscated from busted drug dealers. I was shocked (sort of) when I read that, at this auction, they will be selling a $23,000 gold pendant depicting Jesus and a $38,000 watch. Really, I laughed my ass off when I read the entire list of object descriptions! I wanted to share with you a few of my favorites:


A diamond gorilla (with one stone missing) appraised at $21,600.

Gold colored mens ring w/ "R/S" in torch design on square face and music design on one side and devil face on one side

Tri-colored Rosary necklace approx. 32"
Silver colored figaro necklace, approx. 24" w/ silver colored charm of the "Superman" emblem

Gold colored mens ring, 'religious figure' on center face w/ 3 red stones, 3 green stones, 7 clear stones in horseshoe design and horse head on each side of band
18K yellow gold "Jesus" pendant w/ multiple round clear stones w/approx. 25" curb llink yellow gold chain - appraised to be worth $23,000.

Gold colored female ring, "Mom" on center with flower designs

Gold colored curb link necklace, approx. 18" long, with one gold colored heart shape Tweetie Bird charm, and one gold colored "Taz" charm

Gold colored rope necklace, approx. 20" long, with one gold colored Indian head charm

How's that for trend-setting?
