Police in Ohio say a woman who tried to sell a $10,000 pendant stolen from a LeBron James business partner is a suspect in the case.
A police report identifies 19-year-old Vaneisha Robinson of Akron as a suspect in receiving stolen property but doesn't elaborate. No arrests have been made.
The white gold diamond-studded pendant is in the shape of James' basketball jersey. It was stolen three years ago from Maverick O. Carter, the CEO for James' marketing company.
Robinson says she bought it for $5 at a yard sale, got it appraised and put it for sale on eBay.
She says she then got a call and was invited to the Carter house, where Robinson says she was forced to hand it over.
Robinson has an unlisted phone and could not be reached for comment Friday.

Do you honestly think this woman came about this item in a legal manner? The instant I read the initial story two days ago I suspected she either stole it or got it from someone who stole it.
Dispatch to 2083...

OY!!!! Buying stolen goods does not make a criminal. Police always sell stolen goods at auction.
