The Answer to the Thousands of Stolen Cars

Yes, it is an epidemic that no one mentions anymore, much less the media…but below are some facts. The cars are in fact stolen and even transported and sold with the original owners personal items still in the vehicle….yeesh


Let’s begin here…

Len Green of Toronto woke up to a very surprising call early one morning. A year ago, thieves had snagged his Acura from his driveway. The caller, David Common of the CBC, was sitting in Green’s old car. He’d found the stolen car in Africa.

Common asked, “Does this look like your car?” Green confirmed, “That’s it!”

After Common filmed a walk around the vehicle parked in Ghana, Green said, “I can’t believe it. And my documents and everything are still in there (the glovebox). That’s crazy.”

It’s certainly crazy. But Green is far from alone.

The billion-dollar industry hiding in plain sight

Auto theft in Canada and the U.S. is one of organized crime’s favorite side hustles. And business is booming. Detective Mark Haywood of Peel Police put it plainly: “A large portion of them are actually leaving the country.” He added, “You’ll see about 80 percent of them going out through the ports.”

Deputy Chief Nick Milinovich explained why: “It’s much easier to sell 15 cars on the black market than it is to sell 15 keys of cocaine or 15 illegal guns.” He added, “Last year in 2022 there was over a billion dollars worth of vehicles that were stolen across Canada.”

You read that right. Over one billion in losses. In Toronto alone, thieves took 27,000 cars in a single year. That’s one stolen every 17 minutes. And where do those cars go?

According to Haywood: “We’re seeing a lot of them go to the UAE to Dubai. Nigeria is a hotbed for that. Ghana is another place they’re ending up in.”

TRENTON  Attorney General Matthew J. Platkin and the Division of Criminal Justice announced charges today against 11 people for their roles in an auto theft ring that allegedly targeted high-end vehicles, burglarized homes to get the key fobs needed to steal the cars, stored the vehicles in parking garages in the Bronx, New York, and eventually shipped them to West African countries.

Promoters or organizers of the enterprise allegedly identified their targets – including Land Rovers, Mercedes Benzes, and BMWs – for theft crews that would allegedly then steal the vehicles. Investigators identified 43 stolen New Jersey vehicles valued at approximately $3.65 million in two parking garages on Jennings Street and Third Avenue in the Bronx.

“While car thefts in New Jersey have decreased significantly over the past year and have continued to decrease in 2025, we are committed to reducing them further. This case is about more than just the theft of vehicles, it is about stealing people’s sense of security and safety,” said Attorney General Platkin. “No one should be afraid that a thief will enter their home while they are sleeping to find their key fobs to steal their car, as is alleged in this case. So, we are working collaboratively to use every tool we have to return that sense of safety and security to our communities – including new laws, new technology, and information sharing between law enforcement agencies and between states to shut down car theft operations.”

“This is a case that shows what can be done when we work with our law enforcement partners at every level,” said DCJ Director Theresa L. Hilton. “This was a complex criminal enterprise that specifically targeted and stole high end vehicles to be shipped to overseas buyers. Working together, we were able to charge these defendants with serious crimes carrying lengthy prison sentencing exposure.”

“This case reflects how car theft today is a global enterprise,” Bronx District Attorney Darcel D. Clark said. “Millions of dollars worth of stolen vehicles—including a $475,000 Rolls Royce—were taken to a Bronx parking garage that defendants used as a showroom. The vehicles wound up in shipping containers in Elizabeth  and then in West Africa. My Office, specifically, Assistant District Attorney Jessica Lupo, a Deputy Chief in the Trial Division, worked with NYPD Auto Crime and NJ Attorney General Matthew Platkin to identify and dismantle this group. We will not tolerate auto crime in the Bronx.”

According to the charging documents in this case, beginning in July 2024, law enforcement agencies identified a criminal enterprise that allegedly coordinated the theft of motor vehicles from Morris, Essex, Mercer, Middlesex, and Burlington counties. The stolen vehicles were allegedly “fenced” in the Bronx, for ultimate sale overseas. The members of the conspiracy also allegedly facilitated financial transactions as part of the criminal activity.

Theft crews would allegedly steal the requested vehicles, commonly from residences, and transport them to the Bronx, where middle-level and high-level fences would receive the cars, pay the theft crews, store the vehicles in the identified parking garages to avoid detection, and arrange for the disposition of the vehicles overseas, most often to West African countries.160831 v2 APM Terminals Port Elizabeth New Jersey aerial photo - gCaptain Port Elizabeth, NJ

Several allegedly stolen vehicles previously located in the garages on Jennings Street and Third Avenue, in the Bronx, were later recovered from shipping containers at ports in Elizabeth, New Jersey, and Staten Island, New York. The containers, and the stolen vehicles inside, were destined for West African countries.

Members of the alleged enterprise (see attached chart) include promoters/organizers, high and mid-level fences, and theft crews.

The promoters/organizers of this scheme, “Big G” and “E” remain unidentified.

Defendant Issa Yara was identified as a high-level fence. The investigation revealed that Yara was allegedly in repeated contact with members of the motor vehicle theft crews, exchanging text messages that identified target vehicles and the prices for them. For example, texts in January 2025 specifically referenced “cady,” “x7,” x3,” “X5,” and “Benz,” all of which refer to various types of high-end vehicles, including Cadillac, BMW, and Mercedes Benz. Investigators recovered additional texts requesting information about models and years of vehicles, buying and selling vehicles, coordinating payment, and locations of targeted vehicles.

Defendants Mamadou Camara, Moussa Doumbia, Arona Amadou, Mouslim Ouedraogo, and Moubarak Djibril were identified as middle-level fences. Camara was allegedly in repeated contact with members of the motor vehicle theft crews. Investigators learned Camara allegedly handled the receipt and purchase of stolen vehicles from theft crews, and that the crews dealt with Camara rather than “Big G” directly, who would also be present nearby. For example, the investigation revealed that, following the theft of a 2023 BMW X7 by codefendant Jahquil Louis and his crew, there were multiple calls between Louis and Camara from the time of the theft through the vehicle arriving at the Jennings Street Garage. Camara was captured on video surveillance at the Jennings Street garage operating multiple vehicles stolen from New Jersey.

Defendants Louis, Jomar Ocasio, Daniel Deleon, Quadir Williams, and an unnamed juvenile were identified as members of motor vehicle theft crews. On January 5, 2025, a 2024 BMW X5, valued at approximately $89,000, was stolen from Pompton Plains, Morris County. The homeowner reported a burglary after hearing people in his home, finding his back window broken, and the key fob and vehicle missing. Surveillance captured three suspects near the rear door. Phone records placed Deleon near the scene at the time of the theft.

In another example, on December 30, 2024, a 2024 BMW X7, valued at approx. $52,150, and a 2021 Audi SQ8, valued at approx. $52,360, were stolen from East Windsor, Mercer County. Surveillance captured three suspects entering the occupied home, where they stole a Gucci purse, Gucci wallet, Valentino wallet, $400 in cash, a driver’s license, a N.J. Firearms ID card, and the vehicles. Louis’ phone placed him near the area of the burglary and near the Jennings Street garage. The stolen X7 was later recovered on February 25, 2025, from a container destined for Ghana, Africa, from a port in Elizabeth.

Theft crews were paid for the stolen vehicles with cash from money wired from West Africa to the mid-level and high-level fences. The total value of the stolen vehicles linked to specific residential burglaries by the theft crews operating as part of this enterprise was approximately $542,295.

All defendants are charged with first-degree racketeering.

Yes, China is Surrounding the S. China Sea, but what about Florida?

The two faced dragon….tie to really recalibrate the relationship between the United States and China AGAIN….Previously n this website, I have discussed not only by a post but several times on radio about how the former intelligence/snooping base owned by Russia in Cuba known as the Lourdes SIGINT station was sold to China….no one in media or the national security realm seems to give it much attention…but now…we have an additional problem with China and that is the Bahamas.

How about the largest Chinese embassy in the world with hundreds of Chinese intelligence officers deployed there…..Embassy of China in Nassau in Nassau, Bahamas (Google Maps)

In part from FNC:

“The People’s Republic of China has been making diplomatic, economic and even military and quasi-military inroads into the Caribbean, South and Central America for the past couple of decades,” retired Rear Adm. Peter Brown, former Homeland Security advisor to President Donald Trump, told Fox News Digital.

Brown pointed to the rise in dual-use infrastructure projects along the Bahamas coastline, which is located just 50 miles off the coast of Florida.

“It doesn’t take a lot of imagination for the People’s Republic of China to use its commercial footprint in the Bahamas to monitor, exploit and perhaps even do worse to [the] U.S.,” he said. Pointing to the Chinese-controlled British Colonial Hotel in Nassau, Bahamas, Brown said that its location directly across from the U.S. Embassy could give way to intelligence gathering on U.S. personnel.

The hotel is owned by a Chinese company, Chow Tai Fook Enterprises, which has raised geopolitical concerns given its location. Fox News Digital has reached out to the British Colonial Hotel for comment.

China has invested heavily in the Bahamas through a range of additional high-profile projects, including a $40 million grant for a national stadium, a $3 billion mega-port in Freeport, and $40 million for the North Abaco Port and Little Abaco Bridge.

In 2019, now-Secretary of State Marco Rubio warned in a Miami Herald op-ed that the devastation caused by the natural disaster could create an opening for the People’s Republic of China to use aid as a Trojan horse to gain a foothold near American shores.

“By targeting the Bahamian government in this period of crisis, Beijing would be making the same opportunistic play to access critical foreign infrastructure,” Rubio wrote in 2019. “But in this case, the national security threat is especially perilous, as it would give China a foothold just 50 miles from the coast of Florida.”

How about another look at things in the Caribbean…Chinese expansion

Chinese Expansion in the Caribbean (Extra) - Virtual Mirage

China’s Influence in the Caribbean:

China is a member of both the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) and the Caribbean Development Bank (CDB) and an observer at the Organization of American States (OAS). Alongside Italy and Germany, China is the third largest shareholder at the CDB with 5.6% of overall shares, exponentially higher than the majority of Caribbean countries.

The People’s Republic of China’s (PRC) engagement in the Caribbean has largely focused on investments in infrastructure and developing trade relationships. As of 2022, ten Caribbean countries have signed up to Belt and Road (BRI) – Cuba, Jamaica, Dominican Republic, Antigua & Barbuda, Dominica, Barbados, Grenada, Trinidad & Tobago, Guyana, and Suriname.

The PRC is working towards diminishing the region’s ties to Taiwan as the region contains the largest bulk of Taiwan’s diplomatic allies. Today, St. Lucia, St. Vincent and the Grenadines, St. Kitts and Nevis, Haiti, and Belize remain the only Caribbean nations that recognize Taiwan.

China’s Trade and Economic Investment in the Caribbean

While the Caribbean’s trade with China has grown at a slower pace than overall trade with the region, it increased from $1 billion in 2002 to $8 billion in 2019, with an estimated $6.1 billion in Chinese exports and $1.9 billion in imports.

China is a major trading partner of Cuba’s and Chinese businesses are involved in the Cuba’s telecommunications, tourism, mining, and energy sectors.

Cuba is highly dependent on China and ongoing economic challenges resulted in the reconstructing of an estimated $4 billion in debt to China in 2011 and another restructuring in 2015. For more reading click here.

Homan and Noem in NY for Illegal Migrant Operations

The operations in New York included criminal and civil law enforcement actions. A ruthless leader of Tran de Aragua, Anderson Zambrano-Pacheco was arrested who is/was wanted for kidnapping a woman from Aurora, Colorado also with the help of the DEA in an apartment building in the Bronx.

It is important to know however just what law enforcement is up against in New York as noted below as an example:

ABC News:

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem joined an immigration enforcement operation in New York City on Tuesday.

Noem posted a brief video of an arrest to her social media account.

The secretary is witnessing both criminal and civil enforcement operations, according to sources familiar with the actions in New York.

The criminal case involves a member of a Venezuelan gang that took over an apartment complex in Aurora, Colorado, the sources said. One alleged gang member was arrested in the Bronx.

The New York division of the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration said it was working with partners at the Justice Department and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives to assist the Department of Homeland Security with enforcement efforts.

***.Violent Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua recruiting NYC migrants for ... TdA recruiting migrants

There have been recent arrests in New York of a Venezuelan fugitive and TdA gang member. ICE published this example from May of last year in New York:

NEW YORK — On May 10, Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) New York City arrested an unlawfully present Venezuelan citizen and member of the Tren de Aragua transnational criminal organization. Johan Jose Cardenas Silva is wanted by Peruvian authorities for conspiracy, assault and aggravated theft. Cardenas was also one of eight noncitizens arrested by the New York City Police Department March 27 and charged with criminal possession of a weapon-second degree: loaded firearm; criminal possession weapon-second degree: loaded firearm on school grounds; criminal possession-controlled substance-5th: intent to sell; and act in manner injure child less than 17.

ERO New York City officers assigned to its Long Island office arrested Cardenas upon his release from Nassau County Correctional Center pursuant to an administrative warrant of removal. He is detained in ICE custody pending removal proceedings.

“This international fugitive mistakenly thought he could waltz into the United States to not only evade justice in other countries, but to continue his criminality with impunity,” said ERO New York City Field Office Director Kenneth Genalo. “His history of lawless behavior and membership in a violent international criminal organization clearly demonstrate that he is a serious threat to the public safety.”

U.S. Border Patrol officials encountered Cardenas in Del Rio, Texas, Oct. 4, 2022, and determined he unlawfully entered the United States and issued him a notice and order of expedited removal.

On Jan. 19, 2023, ERO San Antonio served Cardenas a notice to appear with a list of free legal services and filed it with the Executive Office for Immigration Review (EOIR). On March 30, 2023, an immigration judge ordered Cardenas removed from the United States.

On Oct. 5, 2023, Cardenas was released from Stewart County Detention Center on an order of supervision to report to New York City; however, he never reported as directed.

On March 27, NYPD arrested him for the crimes of criminal possession of a weapon-second degree: loaded firearm; criminal possession weapon-second degree: loaded firearm on school grounds; criminal possession-controlled substance-5th: intent to sell; and act in manner injure child less than 17. On this same date, the Bronx Criminal Court arraigned and released Cardenas on his own recognizance before an immigration detainer could be lodged. Due to the New York state’s Protect Our Courts Act, ERO New York City was precluded from arresting Cardenas upon his release.

On April 1, the Nassau County Police Department arrested and charged Cardenas with the crimes of grand larceny in the fourth degree: value property greater than $1,000 and petit larceny. On that same day, ERO New York City lodged an immigration detainer with the Nassau County Jail against Cardenas’ release.

On April 9, ERO New York City received notification that Cardenas was an international fugitive wanted by Peruvian authorities on an arrest warrant issued in October 2018.

On April 30, the First District Court of Nassau County convicted him of petit larceny and sentenced him to 60 days of imprisonment. More here.

The $200M Smuggling Bust at the Long Beach Port

LA Ports smuggling bust: Feds arrest 8 suspected of smuggling $200M in Chinese goods

Federal authorities have arrested eight individuals in connection with a large-scale smuggling operation that allegedly brought counterfeit and illegal goods from China into the United States through the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach.

The operation, involving logistics companies, warehouse owners, and corrupt truck drivers, is believed to have smuggled at least $200 million worth of goods. An additional defendant, believed to be the lead orchestrator, remains at large and is thought to be in China. The defendants face multiple charges, including conspiracy, smuggling, and breaking customs seals.

9 charged in 15-count indictment

What We Know: Federal law enforcement has charged nine defendants in a 15-count indictment with conspiracy, smuggling, and breaking customs seals. The defendants allegedly collaborated with partners in China to manipulate shipping containers flagged for inspection, using logistics companies to facilitate the smuggling of counterfeit goods into the U.S. Investigators have seized over $130 million in contraband, and the organization is believed to have smuggled at least $200 million worth of goods through this scheme. The Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach, the busiest container ports in the Western Hemisphere, were the focal points of the operation.

How the crime ring operated

According to Acting United States Attorney Joseph T. McNally, the scheme involved logistics companies, warehouse owners, and corrupt truck drivers working together to defy U.S. customs laws. The defendants and their partners in China filled shipping containers with contraband, including counterfeit goods and illegal chemicals. They circumvented the security system by learning the unique serial numbers of security seals and creating duplicate fake seals. These counterfeit seals were sent from China to the U.S. When shipments arrived at the port, instead of going to secondary inspection sites, corrupt truck drivers took the containers to offsite warehouses. There, the seals were cut, contraband removed, and new counterfeit seals applied before presenting the containers to Customs and Border Protection (CBP) for inspection. Truck drivers were paid significantly above normal rates to transport the containers illegally.

Timeline: The indictment details a conspiracy that operated from at least August 2023 to June 2024. The scheme involved filling shipping containers in China with contraband, counterfeit goods, and illegal chemicals. These containers were sealed with unique security seals, whose numbers the conspirators obtained in advance to create duplicate fake seals. Upon arrival in the U.S., the containers were diverted to offsite warehouses instead of secondary inspection sites, where the contraband was removed, and new counterfeit seals were applied before presenting the containers for Customs and Border Protection (CBP) inspection. Seven defendants were arrested on Friday, with an eighth taken into custody on Saturday. The arraignment for the seven arrested took place on Friday, where they pleaded not guilty, and a trial date was set for March 18. The eighth defendant is expected to be arraigned soon.

The Backstory: The smuggling operation involved executives from logistics companies, warehouse owners, and corrupt truck drivers who coordinated the shipment of contraband from China to the U.S. through the Port of Los Angeles. The defendants allegedly circumvented customs inspections by breaking security seals on containers, removing contraband, and replacing the seals with counterfeit ones to evade detection.

Longshoreman Pres Threatens America with Destruction

It is almost an act of war, it is a threat to everyone in America, it is insurrection…where is the White House of the Department of Justice? This threat and contract negotiations is about a year old…and Biden Harris have done nothing.

The Biden-Harris administration’s Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo admitted on Monday that she has not been concerned about a strike that could create shortages of food, pharmaceuticals and hundreds of consumer goods.

Daggett outlined a virtual nightmare for the American economy if the strike continues, threatening that dealers “can’t sell cars because the cars ain’t coming in off the ships. They get laid off. Third week, malls start closing down. They can’t get the goods from China. They can’t sell clothes,” he said. A delay in the longshoremen returning to work could take months for the nation to recover from.

“Everything in the United States comes on a ship. They go out of business. Construction workers get laid off because the materials aren’t coming in, the steel’s not coming in, the lumber is not coming in. They lose their jobs,” Daggett said, insisting that the companies would be “better off sitting down and let’s get a contract.”

Did Joe know about his mafia ties?

The Justice Department, which has reportedly lost two cases against Mr Daggett, has accused him of being an “associate” of the Genovese crime family — one of the infamous “Five Families” of the US Mafia.

Charged with racketeering in 2005, Mr Daggett, took the witness stand and portrayed himself as a mob target, despite evidence against him from a turncoat Mafia enforcer saying he was under the mob’s control, the New York Times reported.

During that trial, one of Mr Daggett’s co-defendants, a renowned mobster named Lawrence Ricci, disappeared. His decomposing body was found in the trunk of a car outside a New Jersey diner several weeks later, with the killing still unsolved.

Despite his union serving as a historic symbol of the grip of organised crime on union members, as depicted in the 1954 film “On the Waterfront”, Mr Daggett was acquitted in both cases.

The union leader has previously criticised the Waterfront Commission, set up to combat Mafia control of the port, calling the allegations of mob influence “total bulls—”, and a “dark, ugly attack on Italian Americans”.

“It’s a damn tragedy for the Waterfront Commission to enjoy free rein and target Italian Americans as part of their historic anti-worker campaign. Let’s be real here. The Waterfront Commission has, for decades, claimed good jobs went to only those with so-called ‘mob ties,’” he said in 2022.

As industry goes to automation and technology from fast food the manufacturing…Daggett refuses that at our container ports…“Plus, we want absolute airtight language that there will be no automation or semi-automation, and we are demanding all Container Royalty monies go to the ILA.”

Soap Box Time: “Automation”

As everyone has heard by now my Boss is taking a hard stand on the never ending threat of automation that is infiltrating our industry, and I have heard the remarks from those that say we need to learn how to deal with it! Well I have a message for those people “kiss my fat A$$”! I got some news for those same naïve people that think it’s a good thing and by going to automation it’s going to save the consumer money, let me shed some light with some facts and history that nobody can dispute!

For instance, when the big 3 automakers decided to install robotic welders, painters, upholsterers, machinists, assemblers and countless other robots into production with the false pretense and promises that it would “remember this quote” (save the consumer money) well I ask you this question, did it cut costs of an automobile? The answer is an Easy NO! In fact, the cost of the standard car went up to pay for the robots and them being installed and thousands of workers were left jobless!

This fact goes for countless companies today Sam’s, Home Depot, Lowe’s, Walmart and many and many more have continually sold the general public on the premises that by going with automation it will save the public money, with the FACT being thousands of good tax paying jobs went away and the CEO’s and CORPORATE EXECUTIVES are getting rewarded and richer by getting raises and bonuses for making record breaking profits while your dads, moms, brothers and sisters are pushed out of work, not to mention the same retailers that sold “you the general public” on the idea that it will save you money has actually gone up on the price of groceries and supplies of all kinds!
