Well the police Professional Standards Branch has been investigating and today made some big moves: they arranged for her to get back her gun and the five hundred dollars paid as a bribe. James asked 7news to be there when the return was made:

"I got a call from the police station stating that they will return my gun this afternoon. So, hopefully I'll get it because yesterday, Mr. Rivero and Mrs. Mortis came here and they told me that my gun was at the lab. They assure me that they were going to the lab to bring my gun yesterday. Today is Friday, and I still haven't gotten my gun. Well, just a while ago Mrs. Mortis called me and she told me that I can come for my gun at the police station. I told her no, I'm not coming to the police station for my gun because they didn't get it from the police station. They got it from out of my house. So, she told me that she was going to bring it this afternoon, so I'll wait and see if they bring my gun."

Sure enough the gun was delivered at around 2:30 this afternoon - 10 days after it was confiscated by police. The firearm documents which prove that it is a legally licensed 9mm hand gun were also handed over to James.

Back to James by police and the alleged 500 hundred dollars that the officers took out of bribe, what happens to the 2 missing diamond bracelets and 5 gold rings along with cash that was inside a cash register?

"Your other missing items, your jewelry's, I mean have you heard anything about that?"

Voice of: Carol James
"No I haven't heard anything about it but, I got back the $500 dollars. Hopefully I get my gun today and hopefully before the week done I get my jewelry."

In a statement sent out by police press officer Rafael Martinez, it mentioned that at the time James common-law husband was detained, he handed over the keys for their house, boutique and the gate to a neighbor the release identified as Elaina Arnold and that police are still investigating the matter.

Today we were shown the bunch of keys Arnold received and counted over 50 keys.

Voice of: Carol James
"The person to whom the keys were handed over to is - she's a J.P. Mrs. Elaine Arnold, she's a J.P and she's also a nurse. She would never take all these keys to get in my house. How she can know which key to get in my house?" So that story that they're trying to bring up now isn't going to shield them at all."

Police Press Officer Raphael Martinez also called in on Krems Morning Show today to shed some light on the situation from the police perspective.

Voice of: Carol James
"Well I heard Mr. Martinez on WUB this morning. He's stated that they have Mr. Gentle and Mr. Leal doing - taking care of my case. So, I called Mr. Gentle, and I asked him to give me a brief on what's happening on my case. He said, 'Mrs. James, I cannot give you anything because I don't have any file in front of me for your case.' So I don't know what's going on."

Monica Bodden
"And this is what the police press officer said on the morning show."

Voice of: Carol James
"That's why I'm calling there because I - even though I have a lawyer, I'm doing my own thing - my own investigation."

Monica Bodden
"So without a file, how will he even be able to investigate your case?"

Voice of: Carol James
"Exactly, so I don't know why he made a statement saying that they are doing - taking care of my case, when he said he don't even have a file in front of him to even comment on what is happening. So who is lying? Mr. Gentle is not going to lie. Mr. Henderson is not going to lie and tell me no gun is at the lab. They're trying to cover up these officers."

James says she's not done and will take legal action to get compensated for the property.
