A storage locker belonging to Robert Dewey Hoskins, who served a 10-year sentence for stalking Madonna, has just been opened up.

TMZ reports that the contents of the locker were auctioned off earlier this month after Hoskins failed to pay the bill. The buyer, who paid $1,900 for the contents, did not know Hoskins was the renter of the unit before the auction but reportedly identified him through paperwork and prescription bottles discovered inside.

Also discovered in the locker was a large collection of Madonna memorabilia, condoms, women's jewelry, box cutters, scissors, a bible, and a mask.

TMZ says the buyer informed a private investigation company, which then contacted the LAPD. The LAPD has yet to investigate the locker's contents.

Hoskins, 54, was convicted in 1996 of threatening to kill Madonna and sentenced to ten years in prison. After serving his sentence, he was committed to a Los Angeles-area mental hospital.

Earlier this month he escaped from the Metropolitan State Hospital in Norwalk and was apprehended a week later about eight miles away in Long Beach.

CBS News reported that he was returned to the facility after his arrest and that police did not say how he escaped or where he was for a week.
