WCSO Press Releases 8-27-12

Incident: Theft Investigation
Date of Incident: 22 August 2012
Location: 30000 Block of Carioca Road, Delmar, MD
Suspect: 1. Devonte D. Johnson, 18, Delmar, MD
2. Kenneth A. Robbins, 20, Salisbury, MD
3. Male Juvenile, 17, Delmar, MD

Narrative: On 22 August 2012
at 3:03 PM, a deputy from the Wicomico County Sheriff’s Office responded to investigate a reported burglary in the 30000 block of Carioca Road in Delmar, MD. Upon arrival, the deputy met with a female resident who advised that she returned to the home at 2:45 PM to discover the bedrooms ransacked and the door to her home office forced open. There were no signs of forced entry to the residence itself. The only thing discovered missing was a substantial amount of cash from her office in excess of a thousand dollars.

The investigation soon focused on the victim’s two foster children, Devonte Johnson and a 17 year old, that lived with her. The investigation also involved another foster child, Kenneth Robbins, who lived at another residence. After questioning, the deputy learned that the trio forced entry into the office, stole that
cash and ransacked the bedrooms in an attempt to cover their crime by making it appear another suspect perpetrated a burglary. The trio admitted to taking the cash and heading to the Centre at Salisbury on a spending spree. A substantial amount of unspent cash would later be recovered that further tied these suspects to the crime.

The deputy arrested Johnson and Robbins and transported them to the Central Booking Unit where they were processed and taken in front of the District Court Commissioner. After an initial appearance, the Commissioner detained both in the Detention Center in lieu of $50,000.00 bond each. The 17 year old juvenile was detained in the Lower Eastern Shore Children’s Center
