Eva Peron's Jewelry Recovered In Italy (PHOTOS)

MILAN (AP) — Police in Milan have recovered jewelry said to have belonged to the late Argentine first lady Eva Peron that was stolen from a store in Spain nearly two years ago. (Scroll down for photos)

Italian Carabinieri, working with Spanish police, said Wednesday they found the diamond tiara, diamond earrings and rings worth 6 million euros in a hotel room on the outskirts of Milan.

Police say the jewels were stolen from a shop in Valencia, Spain, in December 2009. One man was arrested over the theft last year in Milan.

The iconic Peron, known as Evita, died in 1952.

the only reason she was able to wear those jewels is=t's because of her corrupt husband, and we all know that Argentina's wealth came not from the country itself but from all the nazis that made Argentina their own little heaven and terrorize the Argentinians who where againts their ideas.

Me too but it'll never happen. He actually made Nixon look like a fairly nice guy - a crook but just a small time crook compared to dubya and his family.
