MIAMI — Miami police arrested a woman wanted in connection with at least three “bad date” Rolex theft cases in at least three different South Florida cities after a sergeant spotted her at a popular downtown nightclub over the weekend.

Antrinasia Jackson, 24, of Miami Gardens, is facing multiple grand theft charges.

According to police, in the first case, on Jan. 7, 2024, a man visiting Miami Beach’s Fontainebleau Resort, located at 4441 Collins Ave. on Mid-Beach, told police that he met the West Virginia-born Jackson at a hotel bar and “decided to take their conversation to (his) room.”

An arrest report states that Jackson became “persistent” about the two taking shots of tequila and the man eventually blacked out and woke up in the bathtub, with his Rolex Datejust watch and Versace gold chain, valued at $14,300, gone.

Authorities said the next known incident happened this August in Miami’s Brickell neighborhood.

Police said the victim told investigators that he met two unknown women, later identified as Jackson and Angelina Esty, a 25-year-old Pompano Beach woman previously arrested in connection with other similar cases, at the Blackbird Ordinary Bar at 729 SW First Ave. on the night of Aug. 8.

An arrest report states that the man and a friend brought Jackson and Esty to his nearby apartment and later woke up to find his $20,000 Rolex, $4,000 in cash and his friend’s replica Rolex missing.

“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 case, from Sept. 7, involves a West Miami man who met Jackson at a downtown Miami nightclub, police said.

According to an arrest report, the two went back to his home in an Uber at around 4:30 a.m. Police said the man woke up alone just before 8 p.m., “feeling dizzy, confused and disoriented.”

“He discovered that (Jackson) was gone and that his Rolex wristwatch, Louis Vuitton bag and a gold chain were missing,” the report states.

He later tested positive for benzodiazepines after seeking medical attention, police said.

Miami police said a sergeant working at Club Space, located at 34 NE 11th St., spotted Jackson after recognizing her from photos included in warrants and officers took her into custody.

Jackson appeared in bond court on Monday. She originally faced burglary charges in addition to three counts of grand theft.

Glazer found no probable cause for the burglary charges.

“They should know,” Glazer said, referring to police. “They come in here and I’ve told them, ‘It’s not a burglary.’”

Jail records show Jackson was being held in the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center on a $12,500 total bond.
