Adams, a former police captain, has pledged to crack down on shoplifting as part of a broader effort to drive down crime in the city. He has pointed to brazen thefts at local drugstores as contributing to a perception of a city engulfed in disorder. Roni Rubinov, a 42-year-old Queens man, was accused of masterminding the scheme by recruiting career shoplifters to steal the merchandise and bring it to several stash locations, including a warehouse in midtown Manhattan. His eBay store allegedly sold more than $1.3 million in stolen goods.
James’ office displayed scores of items seized from Rubinov’s residence, stash house and business locations: a rack of high-end designer dresses, purses, facial creams, and even a guitar. Law enforcement officials say they also found more than 550 gift and cash cards as well as more than $300,000 in cash.
