Brentwood Pawn Shop Owner Gets Prison For Running $2M Retail Theft Ring
The owner of a Long Island pawn shop will spend years in prison and lose his business license after leading a multimillion-dollar retail theft ring.
Carlos Ulloa.
02/06/2024
Carlos Ulloa, age 51, of Patchogue, was sentenced to three to nine years behind bars in Suffolk County Court on Friday, Feb. 2, after pleading guilty to corruption and related charges.
According to prosecutors, between May 2020 and August 2022 Ulloa regularly received stolen goods from Suffolk County retailers at his business, EZ Cash Pawn & Jewelry in Brentwood.
The items were then taken to a warehouse in Patchogue where they were photographed, inventoried, and listed for sale online.
Ulloa and his associates reportedly made over $1 million a year in profit from the scheme.
In August 2022, Suffolk County Police uncovered the stolen goods while executing search warrants at Ulloa’s pawn shop and residence, as well as the Patchogue warehouse. Officers also recovered an unlicensed, stolen handgun at this home.
Ulloa pleaded guilty to enterprise corruption, money laundering, and criminal possession of a weapon, all felonies, in September 2023.
In addition to his prison sentence, he was ordered to surrender his Dealers in Second-Hand Articles and Precious Metal/Gems licenses to the Suffolk County Department of Labor, Licensing, and Consumer Affairs.
As a result, he will not be able to enter any businesses involving pawn shops or purchasing second-hand articles for reselling.
He also forfeited over $968,000 in criminal proceeds, as well as another $1 million in stolen merchandise.
The following additional defendants previously pleaded guilty for their roles:
- Sandra Cruz, age 25, of Patchogue – A manager at the Patchogue warehouse where the stolen items were stored; Pleaded guilty to attempted enterprise corruption and is awaiting sentencing.
- Sandra Hinds, age 47, of Brentwood – A manager at EZ Cash Pawn & Jewelry; Pleaded guilty to attempted enterprise corruption and is awaiting sentencing.

New protection bill looks to help cover security measures for small businesses
: February 26, 2024
New York City supermarkets, bodegas and other small retail businesses would be eligible for cash grants to beef up their security systems under a bill set to be introduced in the City Council this week in response to a local surge in shoplifting.
The Small Business Protection Act, authored by Bronx Councilman Oswald Feliz, will be formally introduced during the Council’s stated meeting on Wednesday, he said in a recent interview.
The legislation proposes to create a city government program that would dole out grants to small retail businesses for purchasing security equipment like cameras, plexiglass windows and panic buttons. Any retail store that operates on the ground floor of a commercial space and qualifies as a small business under federal regulations would be eligible for the grants, according to the bill.
“Small businesses are the heart of our economy, and we must protect them from threats that hurt their ability to operate — including retail theft and burglaries,” said Feliz, a Democrat who’s the chairman of the Council’s Small Business Committee. “We must ensure our smallest businesses have access to tools that will deter conduct that could harm their business and workers.”
Feliz’s measure doesn’t include a dollar figure for how much money a small retail business owner would be able to receive under the program. The bill also doesn’t spell out which city agency would be tasked with administering the program.
He said those omissions are by design, as he envisions such specifics will be hashed out in the legislative process.
For his part, Feliz said it’d be reasonable for the city program to cover half of what it costs a business owner to do security upgrades, with a cap on the total allowable amount. He said he has spoken to bodega owners in his district, which covers Morrisania and other Central Bronx neighborhoods, who’d be able to install top-notch security camera systems in their stores for about $8,000.
Mayor Adams’ support would likely be required for Feliz’s bill to become law.
Charles Lutvak, an Adams spokesman, did not offer support for Feliz’s bill off the bat, but said it dovetails with the mayor’s crime-fighting agenda.
“We appreciate the Council’s partnership in building on this record of success and supporting Mayor Adams’ efforts to protect retail workers and local businesses, and we will review the bill when it is introduced,” Lutvak said.
Feliz’s legislative push comes as retail theft remains a pressing issue across the five boroughs.
The NYPD reports there were 3,000 more arrests made for the crime last year than in 2022
At an event in Queens earlier this month, Gov. Hochul said $4.4 billion worth of goods were shoplifted statewide in 2022, with most of those offenses happening in the city. That translated to a loss of $176 million in sales taxes that year alone, she noted.
Feliz argued combating shoplifting is about more than protecting small business owners.
“These threats have costly impacts, and can contribute to a decline in jobs, neighborhoods and communities,” he said.

Senate Leader McGuire, Senate Colleagues Announce New Bipartisan Legislative Package: Working Together for a Safer California
Official website of California's Senate Majority Leader Mike McGuire, representing California Senate District 02.
lol@ plan to combat retail theft. How about enforcing the law and arresting these thieves?
They are letting all of this theft happen so they can justify locking all of these goods up.
Once that CBDC comes in, they'll have ultimate control over you.
