Crime

Collier County Sheriff Rambosk posted this at 12:00 noon Friday January 14, 2022


Sheriff Kevin Rambosk today praised the teamwork between multiple CCSO units that led to the swift apprehension of five teenagers in connection with a violent robbery and kidnapping incident Thursday.

The arrested individuals range in age from 15 to 18 and are each charged with armed robbery with a firearm and armed kidnapping. They are Luigi Roca, 18, of Ibis Club Drive; Anthony Zangrilli, 18, of Carrington Circle; Yankiel Borden, 15, of 44th St. S.W.; Yoni Borden, 15, of 44th St. S.W.; and Carlos Rodriguez, 16, of Golden Gate Blvd. W.

Sheriff Rambosk commended the collaborative effort by deputies and detectives from different departments across the agency.

“This was truly a team effort aimed at keeping our community safe,” Sheriff Rambosk said. “Five violent criminals are now off our streets.”

Collier County Sheriff’s Office reports gave this account of the events leading up to the arrests:

The teenage victim told detectives he was walking near his residence in East Naples around 1:30 p.m. Thursday when he was approached by a red four-door vehicle occupied by Roca, Rodriguez and the Borden brothers.

The victim said Roca, Rodriguez and the Bordens, who were all known to him, got out of the vehicle and dragged him inside, placing him in the backseat and putting a pillowcase over his head.

They drove the victim to Roca’s apartment where Zangrilli was waiting. The suspects beat the victim, told him he owed them money and used his cell phone to try to get the victim’s family members to send them money.

The victim said Roca, Zangrilli and Yankiel Borden each brandished a semi-automatic handgun with a laser at the apartment. The victim said Zangrilli pointed the firearm at him and threatened to kill him.

The victim told detectives one of the Borden twins gave him a green shirt or cloth to wipe the blood from his face from being beaten.

When it appeared the victim wasn’t going to be able to produce any money, the suspects drove him back to the intersection where they kidnapped him from, telling him they would kill his family if he contacted law enforcement.

Deputies arrested Roca and Rodriguez following a traffic stop and confiscated the red four-door Chevrolet Sonic they were traveling in.

SHOCAP deputies took the Borden brothers into custody. A review of Yoni Borden’s court-ordered GPS ankle monitor placed him in the vicinity of where the victim said he was kidnapped and at Roca’s apartment at the time the victim said he was there being beaten.

Detectives executed a search warrant at the suspect apartment where they found a blood-stained pillowcase and a green shirt with blood on it. The search also turned up a box of .380-caliber ammunition and a 40-caliber magazine for a Glock 27.

Zangrilli was present during the search and was taken into custody.

More charges may be pending as detectives said they are looking at all five of the suspects in connection with other crimes currently under investigation.

Florida Law Bans Critical Race Theory

6A-1.094124 Required Instruction Planning and Reporting. (3) As provided in Section 1003.42(2), F.S., members of instructional staff in public schools must teach the required instruction topics efficiently and faithfully, using materials that meet the highest standards of professionalism and historical accuracy.

 

(a) Efficient and faithful teaching of the required topics must be consistent with the Next Generation Sunshine State Standards and the Benchmarks for Excellent Student Thinking (B.E.S.T.) Standards.

 

b) Instruction on the required topics must be factual and objective, and may not suppress or distort significant historical events, such as the Holocaust, slavery, the Civil War and Reconstruction, the civil rights movement and the contributions of women, African American and Hispanic people to our country, as already provided in Section 1003.42(2), F.S. Examples of theories that distort historical events and are inconsistent with State Board approved standards include the denial or minimization of the Holocaust, and the teaching of Critical Race Theory, meaning the theory that racism is not merely the product of prejudice, but that racism is embedded in American society and its legal systems in order to uphold the supremacy of white persons. Instruction may not utilize material from the 1619 Project and may not define American history as something other than the creation of a new nation based largely on universal principles stated in the Declaration of Independence. Instruction must include the U.S. Constitution, the Bill of Rights and subsequent amendments.

 

(c) Efficient and faithful teaching further means that any discussion is appropriate for the age and maturity level of the students, and teachers serve as facilitators for student discussion and do not share their personal views or attempt to indoctrinate or persuade students to a particular point of view that is inconsistent with the Next Generation Sunshine State Standards and the Benchmarks for Excellent Student Thinking (B.E.S.T.) Standards.
