Detectives were notified by local pawnshops that several young adults were selling rare gold and platinum coins worth thousands of dollars. All four boys were identified, located, and taken in for questioning. The boys admitted to entering the home and stealing the valuable coins, which they were pawing at various pawnshops in Charlotte and Lee counties. Arrested were 18-year-old Brandon Lee Jelliff and three juveniles. The four teens assisted in the recovery of over $500,000 in stolen coins. All four were charged with felony Burglary and Grand Theft. Jelliff was additionally charged with Dealing in Stolen Property. Jelliff remains in the Charlotte County Jail since he is now an adult with 10 arrests and 21 records. The three juvenile boys were transported to the Department of Juvenile Justice center in Ft. Myers. Shop CCF Members on eBay. Report this Post to the Staff
