Winona Ryders Alleged Payment Oversight
Convicted shoplifter Winona Ryder allegedly left a Los Angeles boutique
without paying for a belt and boots.The Hollywood actress, who three years ago stole 3,200GBP-worth of clothes
from a Beverly Hills store, reportedly walked out of the trendy Shabon shop
wearing the 60GBP brown suede boots and 20GBP belt.But sources claim they weren't paid for until eight days later, when the
star's assistant returned and put the items on her own credit card.
A shop assistant named Kelly claims Winona bought 200GBP-worth of clothes,
but neglected to pay for the boots and belt.She told Britain's News of the World newspaper: "I don't understand Winona
at all. She made a big show of spending 200GBP in the store. and seemed to
risk everything by taking a cheap pair of boots and a 20GBP belt."However, Winona's spokesman insists the 'Girl, Interrupted' star paid for
everything she took, saying: "This is an inaccurate portrayal of events. All
items were paid for in full."Winona was ordered to serve 480 hours of community service after she was
found guilty of grand theft and vandalism after stealing clothes from
Beverly Hills store Saks Fifth Avenue in 2002.
However, the court acquitted her of burglary - a more severe charge that
required proof the actress had gone to the store intending to steal.
Winona was arrested in December 2001 after being caught on security cameras
leaving the store laden with packages she hadn't paid for, including Donna
Karan socks and a Gucci dress.
