A man has been sentenced to 50 months in prison for his involvement in a burglary spree that targeted Asian American small business owners in New Jersey and other states, U.S. Attorney Philip R. Sellinger said.
Randi Barr, 42, of Vauxhall, pleaded guilty in the case to conspiracy to commit interstate transportation of stolen property in December of last year.
Barr and his co-conspirators burglarized the homes of the business owners between December 2016 and March 2019, officials said. The group stole money, jewelry and other valuable items from residences in New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania and Delaware and transported the goods between states, authorities said.
In one instance in 2019, $500,000 in cash was taken from a single home in Eatontown, officials said.
One of the co-conspirators told detectives that the group decided to target Asian individuals “because it was believed that the victims kept large sums of currency and jewelry in their residences,” according to a criminal complaint.
Seven others were charged in the case along with Barr in 2021 — Rabine Armour, of Easton, Pennsylvania, Kevin Burton, of Newark, Kevin Jackson, of Rahway, Thomas Rodgers, of Newark, James Hurt, of Tobyhanna, Pennsylvania, Sherman Glasco of Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, and Terrance Black, of Irvington. All of the defendants were charged with a single count of conspiracy to commit interstate transportation of stolen property.
The U.S. Attorney’s Office did not provide an update on the other cases.
As part of his sentencing, Barr has been ordered to pay $127,661.40 in restitution and forfeiture.
