  4. A 25-year-old man from Florida has been sentenced to 47 years in prison for orchestrating a series of violent burglaries aimed at stealing millions in crypto. This case highlights the increase in violent crypto-related crimes.

    A Sophisticated Gang Operating Across Multiple States

    Remy Ra St. Felix, 25, has been sentenced to 47 years in prison for orchestrating a series of home invasions aimed at stealing crypto. At the head of a criminal group operating from Florida to New York, St. Felix had developed a well-rehearsed modus operandi.

    Exemplary Sentences for the Entire Criminal Network

    While Remy Ra St. Felix received the heaviest sentence, his accomplices were not spared. Jarod Gabriel Seemungal, 23, was sentenced to 20 years in prison and 4 million dollars in restitution. Jose Alfredo Avila, 27, is serving a 20-year sentence with a fine of 365,100 dollars.

    Punishments and Restitution

    In total, 12 people were convicted in this case, with sentences ranging from 5 to 47 years in prison. The restitution amounts ordered exceed well over a million dollars for some defendants.

    This case marks a turning point in the crackdown on crypto-related crimes in the United States. Faced with an increase in thefts and scams targeting the crypto sector, authorities are clearly taking a tougher stance.
