A woman wanted in connection with several luxury watch thefts across South Florida was arrested over the weekend after a Miami police sergeant recognized her at Club Space, a popular downtown nightclub.
Antrinasia Jackson, 24, of Miami Gardens, is facing multiple grand theft charges linked to at least three “bad date” Rolex thefts in Miami Beach, Brickell, and West Miami.
According to police, the first incident occurred on Jan. 7, 2024, at the Fontainebleau Resort in Miami Beach. The victim told investigators he met Jackson at the hotel bar and invited her to his room. After taking shots of tequila, he blacked out and later woke up in his bathtub—missing his Rolex Datejust watch and Versace gold chain worth $14,300.
The second case took place on Aug. 8 in Miami’s Brickell neighborhood. Police said Jackson and another woman, Angelina Esty, 25, met two men at Blackbird Ordinary Bar before going to the victims’ nearby apartment. The men later woke up to find a $20,000 Rolex, $4,000 in cash, and a replica Rolex stolen.
“They portrayed themselves as willing social companions in order to secure an invitation into the victim’s apartment,” the report states. “However, their true intent was to surreptitiously drug and steal from the victim.”
A third incident, reported on Sept. 7, involved a West Miami man who met Jackson at a downtown nightclub. After returning home with her in an Uber, the man awoke feeling dizzy, confused, and disoriented, discovering his Rolex, Louis Vuitton bag, and gold chain missing. Medical tests later confirmed the presence of benzodiazepines in his system.
Jackson was arrested after a sergeant recognized her from wanted bulletins while working at Club Space, located at 34 NE 11th Street. Officers took her into custody without incident.
Jackson appeared in bond court on Monday, where a judge dismissed burglary charges due to lack of probable cause, leaving her with three counts of grand theft.
She is currently being held at the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center on a $12,500 bond.
