Police are investigating the alleged thefts of over $350,000 in jewelry from homes in New York’s Trump Tower, where President Trump also lives when he’s in the Big Apple.
The jewelry went missing from two apartments, the New York Post reports.
Authorities suspect the thefts were “inside jobs.” They’re making lists of everyone who could have entered the premises, including building workers, cleaners and contractors.
One of the victims “told cops she found five gem-encrusted accessories missing from a drawer in her closet,” according to the Post.
The jewelry was worth $236,000. One of the items was a Harry Winston diamond bracelet.

In the other case, the victim was Isabelle Bscher, an art dealer. The missing item is a Graff diamond bracelet valued at $117,000.
Police aren’t sure whether the same person may have carried out both thefts. The apartments did not appear to have been broken into.

Family Legacy, New Chapter: How Wilkerson Turns 89 Years of History Into Future Success
After 89 years of serving the Albany community, Harold Finkle Your Jeweler faced a pivotal decision. For third-generation owner Justin Finkle, the demanding hours of running a small business were taking precious time away from his young family. "After 23 years, I decided this was the time for me," Finkle explains. But closing a business with nearly nine decades of inventory and customer relationships isn't something easily managed alone.
Wilkerson's comprehensive approach transformed this challenging transition into a remarkable success story. Their strategic planning handled everything from advertising and social media to inventory management and staffing — elements that would overwhelm most jewelers attempting to navigate a closing sale independently.
The results speak volumes. "Wilkerson gave us three different tiers of potential goals," Finkle notes. "We've reached that third tier, that highest goal already, and we still have two weeks left of the sale." The partnership didn't just meet financial objectives—it exceeded them ahead of schedule.
