Queens, NY – Jamil Brown has been charged with various crimes, including criminal possession of stolen property and identity theft. A court-authorized search of his Brooklyn home revealed stolen bank checks, credit cards, debit cards, and driver’s licenses. Brown’s girlfriend, Kadija Corke, was also arrested during the search. The investigation was initiated following a report of fraudulent charges on a credit card by a resident of Laurelton.
Brown, 32, was arraigned on a 152-count complaint with multiple charges related to possession of stolen property and identity theft. He is expected to return to court on November 19 and may face a sentence ranging up to 25 years to life in prison if convicted. Corke, 31, was similarly charged and will appear in court on December 11. Her potential maximum sentence could reach 15 years in prison if she is found guilty.
The investigation revealed that Brown used a secondary credit card issued to the victim’s husband for unauthorized purchases across several retail stores. Video evidence and location data allegedly place Brown at the scenes of these fraudulent transactions. Law enforcement executed a search on October 28 at 7:00 a.m., leading
