Kirsten Dunsts $13,000 Legal Purse Saga

The American Bar Association has an interesting legal tidbit, forwarded from the NY Daily News… Actress Kirsten Dunst was called to the stand in a trial over a mechanic stealing a $13,000 handbag. Good to know that the former Marie Antoinette is spending wisely in these days of how to survive a worldwide recession… best part is its alleged the bag was stolen while she was downstairs from her Soho Grand penthouse filming scenes from “How to Lose Friends and Alienate People”:

Actress Kirsten Dunst was the star witness today in a New York trial of a mechanic accused of stealing a $13,000 Balenciaga handbag from her swanky Soho Grand penthouse suite in 2007.
Also missing were a $2,000 Marc Jacobs purse and $2,000 in cash, among other items, testified Dunst, who starred in Marie Antointette and is also known for her work in Spiderman, reports the New York Daily News.
The defendant, James Jimenez, 35, has pleaded not guilty. [full article]

Maybe Willem Dafoe, aka Gas, should play the part of the Mechanic… of course, its all just alleged. its all just alleged.
