The Hollywood Burglary Bunch apparently has no problems eating its own.

As we previously reported, investigators believe the ringmaster was one Rachel Lee, and now court documents obtained Friday by E! News offer yet more details into the case against her.

Lee was seemingly sold out by her alleged partner-in-crime, Nicholas Prugo, who is quoted in an affidavit saying she orchestrated hits on such stars as Orlando Bloom, Audrina Patridge and Brian Austin Green.

Prugo told detectives that Lee chose their celebrity targets, while he would gather information and pictures on the Internet. He also told investigators she was primarily after the designer wardrobes of celebs she "admired."

Prugo also gave investigators detailed descriptions of their methods and loot. For example, he said that he and Lee bagged between $200,000 and $300,00 of Chanel loot from Rachel Bilson's home and entered Paris Hilton's home three times, taking cash, narcotics and personal effects.

Prugo said he was nervous about committing the last burglary, at Lindsay Lohan's home, because they had already been captured on surveillance footage.

"You're already here," Lee allegedly told Prugo. "You might as well come inside and get something for yourself."

Another suspect is down for the count.

Los Angeles police confirmed to E! News Wednesday that Jonathan Ajar, 27, another suspected member of a burglary ring that hit up the houses of Hollywood's rich, young and famous is in custody after turning himself in today.

He's being held on $85,000 bail.

The cops had no further comment, but the L.A. District Attorney's Office says that charges had already been filed against Ajar in absentia, none of them having to do with the actual act of burglary, but rather to the guns and drugs found when authorities searched his home on Oct. 22.

"We didn't file any charges against him related to the actual burglary," D.A. spokeswoman Jane Robison said. "We charged him with multiple counts of possession, for sale of a controlled substance and possession of a firearm."

Officials warned last week, when Ajar was nowhere to be found, that he should be considered armed and dangerous.

So far, alleged ringleader Nicholas Prugo, 18, has been charged with seven counts of residential burglary; Diana Tamayo, 19, is charged with two; and Alexis Neiers, 18, Roy Lopez Jr., 27, and Courtney Leigh Ames, 18, are each facing one count.

Prugo is accused of participating in the break-ins at the homes of Lindsay Lohan, Audrina Patridge, Orlando Bloom, Megan Fox, Rachel Bilson and Paris Hilton, and the gang also allegedly invaded Ashley Tisdale's space.

Crime may not pay, but it sure can comp you some priceless merchandise. Until you're caught, that is.

According to newly released documents detailing the spoils from the search warrants targeting the celeb-obsessed pals who allegedly ripped off Lindsay Lohan, Paris Hilton, Orlando Bloom, Megan Fox, Rachel Bilson, Audrina Patridge, Ashley Tisdale and Brian Austin Green, the so-called Hollywood Burglar Bunch certainly knew how to get the most out of their home invasions.

Police managed to recover all manner of jewelry, designer goods and, as no ill-thought-out crime ring is complete without them, drugs and guns. The goods were retrieved in raids carried out Oct. 22.

Now get a load of this haul:

Back-from-the-dead couple Nick Lachey and Vanessa Minnillo threw a private Halloween bash (put together with party planner Marley Majcher), which was monstrously successful. At least if the guest list is any indication.

Joining Mr. and Mrs. Stein (see above) at their bash were Kate Beckinsale, Tommy Lee, Stacy Keibler, Kara DioGuardi and Wilmer Valderrama.

Elsewhere in Hollywood, Paris Hilton opened her Beverly Hills home Friday for costumed pals Hayden Panettiere (channeling her inner Jessica Rabbit in tight red dress and red wig), Whitney Port (in a Lady Gaga-like getup), Ryan Seacrest (still wearing the Ponch from CHiPs outfit he wore to work at E! earlier in the day).

At one point Hilton, who was dressed like Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz (as was boyfriend Doug Reinhardt), grabbed the microphone and announced to partygoers, "This is the sickest Halloween party in the world, I love you guys!"

So Lindsay Lohan finds answering questions about the Hollywood Burglar Bunch awkward (although it's way more awkward watching her be all awkward about it), but Paris Hilton has no problem talking about the sticky-fingered teens.

"They're a bunch of dirty rotten thieves," Paris said last night as she left West Hollywood restaurant Philippe.

The heiress had about $2 million in jewelry stolen by the student burglary ring, most of which has been returned. But still, Paris admits she would much rather hang out with the Brady Bunch than the Burglar Bunch...duh. Great question, paparazzi man.

Per court documents, Lopez and Ames were allegedly in on the Paris Hilton break-in, Neiers supposedly particpated in the Orlando Bloom heist, and Tamayo is on the hook for the Lindsay Lohan and Ashley Tisdale burglaries. Prugo allegedly took part in all (except Tisdale), plus burglarized the homes of Rachel Bilson, Megan Fox and Audrina Patridge.

Prugo is due to be arraigned Nov. 12, while his codefendants are due in court Nov. 16 (Neiers), Nov. 17 (Tamayo), Nov. 20 (Ames) and Nov. 23 (Lopez). All are currently free on bail since being arrested last week.

The investigation into suspect Rachel Lee is ongoing, per D.A. spokeswoman Jane Robison.

Good thing the Los Angeles Police Department isn't as sensitive to awkward topics as Lindsay Lohan is.

Adding to the ever-growing list of celebrity victims of the bizarre student burglar ring, the LAPD announced that Ashley Tisdale, Megan Fox and Brian Austin Green were the latest stars to have their home heists linked to the fashion-forward hooligans.

UPDATE: Paris got her baubles back! The LAPD returned most of the heiress' stolen belongings to her last night.

"She didn't get everything but fortunately most of her jewelry was returned," her publicist, Dawn Miller, tells People. "She is really pleased and thankful to the LAPD for their help."

It's a blockbuster potentially starring Lindsay Lohan, Audrina Patridge, Paris Hilton, Orlando Bloom and Rachel Bilson. Too bad it will be playing out in the L.A. courthouse instead of a movie house.

Los Angeles police tell E! News that they have shut down a burglary ring that allegedly targeted several young Hollywood stars, stealing hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of jewelry and clothes.

A spokeswoman for the Los Angeles Police Department says that 19-year-old Diana Tamayo, 18-year-old Alexis Neiers, 18-year-old Courtney Ames and a man named Roy Lopez were taken into custody Thursday as part of a sting operation.

No charges have been filed yet, but the foursome is expected to be tagged with felony burglary charges. Ames and Neiers were released on $50,000 bond. (As of this writing, Lopez and Tamayo were still jailed.)

Another woman, 19-year-old Rachel J. Lee, was arrested in Clark County, Nev., on charges of possession of stolen property and voluntarily surrendered in the Lohan/Patridge case. Bond was set at $3,000.

Paris Hilton took a break from her new gig as head tumbler on the Albanian Olympic gymnastics team to drop by the Fox Reality Channel Really Awards in Los Angeles.

The transition from celebutante to athlete can be somewhat challenging, but Paris seems to have slinked into the role with ease. Perhaps it's the assortment of sparkly, clingy, asymmetric outfits, gallons of hair spray, preponderance of body glitter and the emphasis on physical flexibility that has enabled Hilton to thrive in her new profession?

Anyway! We're lucky to have snapped this sneak peek at her uniform for her new routine, "Ice Queen of the Double Rings." Just hope she can stick a straight dismount in those shoes!
