The treasures of Dixon’s notorious ex-comptroller, Rita Crundwell are up for grabs.
Now you can buy some of the lavish stuff she bought herself after stealing $53 million from the town.
It wasn’t all horses, the U.S. marshals service is auctioning off jewels too, including a $25,000 Rolex, a $1.4 million dollar gold bullion bar and a little Spongebob bauble valued at $1200 bucks.
The auction is Saturday in Texas and will be on the web.
Did a reporter or anchor mention a website on-air? If they did, we’ve posted it here!

Somehow, the people of Dixon are robbed twice by Rita Crundwell; why is the property she purchased with Dixon's stolen money available for public acution as opposed to having Dixon receive the property?

I and also my guys were going through the excellent pointers on your web blog while instantly developed a horrible feeling I had not thanked the web blog owner for those secrets. Most of the young men had been for that reason warmed to see them and already have undoubtedly been making the most of those things. Appreciation for turning out to be quite accommodating and for picking these kinds of nice subject areas most people are really desperate to be aware of. Our own sincere regret for not saying thanks to earlier
