French prosecutors charged two more suspects in the Louvre jewel heist, bringing to four the number held over the $100 million theft two weeks ago; the jewels remain missing. A 37-year-old alleged team member faces organized theft and conspiracy charges, while a 38-year-old woman is accused of complicity; both were identified through DNA and phone data and deny involvement, her lawyer saying she is devastated. Two earlier arrestees, one stopped at Charles de Gaulle with a one-way ticket to Algeria, have partially admitted the daylight raid, which has triggered criticism of security and praise for police work.
