A St. Louis city detective investigating an unrelated matter noted that defendant, who was on electronic monitoring from a pending case in the Circuit Court of the City of St. Louis, appeared to be committing offenses within south St. Louis County during the relevant period of time. St. Louis County police obtained the GPS data connected to defendant's ankle monitor. The data obtained from the warrant placed defendant's monitor at the scene of each of the listed offenses in St. Louis County at the time they took place. In addition, defendant's fingerprint was lifted from a vehicle at the scene of the auto theft in Counts 3 and 4. Defendant was later interviewed while in custody in St. Louis city. Defendant admitted that he had not taken off his ankle bracelet during the period of the offenses but also denied that he had participated in any of the offenses. At one point he asked an officer "how do you know I was taking all those cars?"
St. Louis County Police Department Bureau of Crimes Against Property detectives are leading this investigation.
Please note, charges are merely an accusation and Defendants are presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty in a court of law.
