The iconic ruby slippers sold for a total of $32.5 million at auction last month. The slippers were stolen in 2005 from the Judy Garland Museum in Grand Rapids.
A man accused of long hiding a stolen pair of sequined ruby slippers that Judy Garland wore in 'The Wizard of Oz' plans to plead guilty, his attorney confirmed Friday.The slippers were stolen in 2005 from the Judy Garland Museum in her hometown of Grand Rapids, Minnesota . Their whereabouts remained a mystery for nearly 13 years until the FBI recovered them in Minneapolis in 2018. They fetched a record price for movie memorabilia when they were auctioned off for $32.
The 76-year-old Grand Rapids man was sentenced to time served, one year of supervised release and $23,000 in restitution to the museum. The indictment against Saliterman says that from August 2005 to July 2018, he 'received, concealed, and disposed of an object of cultural heritage.' Saliterman, according to the indictment, knew they were stolen, and that he threatened to release a sex tape of a woman and 'take her down with him' if she did keep her mouth shut about the slippers.
