Brooklyn keeps on taking it.
CNN —
A YouTuber’s Power-Rangers-themed Lamborghini, once the shining star of his extravagant car collection, is among 32 of his vehicles that will be sold at auction after the content creator was sentenced to five years in prison for fraud and other crimes.

Bill Omar Carrasquillo, better known by his YouTube handle “Omi in a Hellcat,” was sentenced in March to five and a half years in prison “for crimes arising from a wide-ranging criminal scheme that involved piracy of cable TV, access device fraud, wire fraud, money laundering, and hundreds of thousands of dollars of copyright infringement,” according to a news release from the US Marshals Service.

In addition to his prison sentence, Carrasquillo is also subject to a $30 million forfeiture money judgment and must pay $15 million in restitution, the agency said.

The Lamborghini Aventador, wrapped in Power Rangers imagery, is one of the flamboyant pieces among the lot. The ostentatious vehicle already reached a bid of $387,000.00 by Friday night.

The live auction, set for October 13, will include over 55 of Carrasquillo’s unique and luxury cars, motorcycles, ATVs and other vehicles. The in-person sale will take place at B&O Railroad Museum in Baltimore, although online bidding has already started.

Jewelry seized from Carrasquillo will also be sold in a separate online auction, according to the news release. The lot includes the massive diamond-studded pendant the YouTuber sported in many of his videos, featuring the words “Omi in a Hellcat” around a snarling cat icon.

Better to reign in Hell than serve in Heaven
Used to watch him on YouTube. Dude was always vague about how he got his money.

You know how back in the day, a guy will stop by the house and sell you some cable boxes or illegal hook ups to cable? Well, Omni is the 2023 version and responsible for the IPTV craze that everybody was on a couple years ago



Crazy to think you can make that much money, and do that much jail time off stealing cable

I guess I'm just boring
I never understood car culture and getting an exotic car

All I want is a Cadillac or a Rolls Royce Everything else is :yeshrug: to me
Whichever part of the brain likes video games or sports for some people, likes cars for them I'm guessing. Or maybe even the fashion taste part of the brain.

Ever notice how car heads usually dress like absolute garbage and never match?
