Security guard lost $15M worth of jewelry at Grammys: suit – A Manhattan jeweler that lends pricey bling to celebrities for red carpet events says a security guard lost $15 million in baubles during this year’s Grammy Awards. Luxury watch and jewelry house Chopard — which regularly lends its pieces to the rich and famous for the Grammy’s, Academy Awards and Golden Globes — hired Ferrari Express to secure the 53 pieces of jewelry.

Ferrari transported the pieces to the swanky Montage Hotel in Laguna Beach, Calif. on Feb. 14 for an unnamed celebrity fitting, according to the suit, filed in Manhattan Supreme Court.

But that night, instead of sending the rejected jewels to a secure vault as promised, the luxury pieces remained in the driver’s van, parked outside of his house “with minimal, if any, security” in a Los Angeles neighborhood, according to the suit.

The Ferrari employee “drove to his home in a neighborhood in which vehicle thefts are common, parked the Ferrari van on a street near his house, then went into his house leaving the jewelry unsecured and unattended in the van overnight,” the court papers read.
