Start checking pawn shops. They have to turn that jewelry into cash somehow

Doubt the thieves will attempt to sell that haul in-state. More likely to show up in a big city somewhere where folks do not know they are stolen items.

Or melt down the metal and recut the gems. Doubt the thieves are THAT smart though

Jewelry thieves have a reputation for being resourceful and for covering their tracks. They appear to have had a plan for the carrying out the theft; they likely have a plan for disposing of the stolen goods, too.

That would be the smart thing to do.

More than likely it’s on its way out of state having been traded for a couple days fix worth of heroin. It will if I were a wagering man I would put odds on it turning up somewhere between Connecticut and New York.

In related news look for an OD in the area in the next day or two and you have a prime suspect.
