Wisconsin escort steals tens‑of‑thousands from men across Miami, Virginia Gardens police say
A 20‑year‑old woman from Madison, Wisconsin, was arrested by the Virginia Gardens Police Department on Saturday for grand theft and false imprisonment. Authorities say she stole jewelry and valuables including a $14,000 Rolex and posted a photo of the watch on Facebook. Police recorded that she drugged a male victim at a Candlewood Suites location on 36th Street and that the victim later tested positive for benzodiazepines.
Earlier on Thursday, detectives claim the suspect met another male at Coco Miami, an upscale bar in the Design District. After drinking together, the pair went to a hotel room in the Icon Brickell building. The male victim discovered his belongings missing around 10 a.m. Surveillance footage shows the woman leaving the building with a large bag and wearing the victim’s jersey.
The suspect was identified from a photo lineup and was already in custody for a prostitution charge dating back to May 7, 2025. In that case, she received $120 for sex from an undercover officer and was detained at a nearby motel.
The woman is being held at the Turner‑Guilford‑Knight Correctional Center on a bond exceeding $15,000. She appeared in her booking photo with a neck tattoo that reads “IS RARE.”
