A man has been indicted by a grand jury on charges of stealing a pair of ruby red slippers worn by Judy Garland in 'The Wizard of Oz,' prosecutors say. The FBI recovered the slippers in a sting operation in 2018.
A grand jury indicted Terry Martin on Tuesday on one count of theft of a major artwork, federal prosecutors in North Dakota announced Wednesday. The indictment did not provide any further information about him.
They were taken from the Judy Garland Museum in Grand Rapids, Minnesota, the late actress’ hometown, and are one of four remaining pairs of red slippers Garland wore during production, clicking her heels and repeating the classic phrase, “There’s no place like home.” Over the years, several enticing rewards were offered in hopes that the slippers would turn up, including an anonymous donor from Arizona who put up $1 million.
