PHILADELPHIA - March 8, 2010
Fifty-three-year-old Anthony Mobley pleaded guilty Monday in the
theft of the $10,000, diamond-encrusted World Series ring.
Authorities say a Phillies marketing executive left the ring in a
stadium washroom then discovered it was missing when he went back
for it about a half-hour later.
Investigators say surveillance footage led police to Mobley, who
took officers to where he'd stashed the ring in a supply closet.
Assistant District Attorney Anthony Nardozzi says the ring had been
wedged between the ceiling and a wall.
Mobley's attorney says his client is a good man who made a poor
decision.
Sentencing is scheduled for June 2.
