Jennifer Owens was booked by the Jacksonville Sheriff\u2019s Office, which paraded her in a \u201cperp walk\u201d after the arrest.<\/p>\n

Owens told investigators from the beginning that she sold the coins, valued at over $240,000, but never knew they were stolen. She said they were given to her by her husband, Victor Owens.<\/p>\n

The coins were taken March 18 from the FedEx facility on Commonwealth Avenue, according to JSO.<\/p>\n

Victor Owens, 50, was arrested June 24 and faces charges including grand theft of more than $100,000 and dealing in stolen property. Court records show a previous charge of false verification of ownership on a pawnbroker transaction form has been dropped. <\/p>\n

JSO said Victor Owens got the coins by working for the Logistive Delivery LLC company and picking up boxes from the FedEx warehouse.<\/p>\n

He told police he thought the person who was supposed to get the package was dead, but the man was alive and well in Clay County.<\/p>\n

The State Attorney\u2019s Office dropped the charges against Jennifer Owens, who reached out to News4JAX to alert us to the update in her case.<\/p>\n
