The packing in which tho diamonds had been encased was turned over to Detectives James Gegan and James McCartney of the Bomb Squad at- tached to the New York Police De- partment, who were asked to find out whether the shot that marred the costly necklace had been fired before or after the outer wrapping had been removed.
