The neighbor named Maybach as a suspect, Palm Bay police said. Officers reviewed Maybach's pawn shop transactions and said they found transactions she made on the day of the burglary and Dec. 11. Several items, including the stolen motorcycle jacket, matched the valuables from the burglary. 

Maybach has been at the Brevard County Detention Center in Sharpes since Dec. 15, when she was charged with two counts of child neglect without bodily harm. Her bail is $51,000.
