On December 3, 2014 Jakari Amani Bolden (25 years old from Oakland, CA) was sentenced to 12 years state prison for his involvement in a home invasion robbery that occurred in Pleasanton, CA on August 26, 2013. Bolden pled to a charge of 211 of the California Penal Code – Robbery; and a charge of 12022.5 of the California Penal Code – use of firearm in the commission of a felony.
Three other suspects were arrested in 2013 for their involvement for this crime. Terrell Antoine Bailey (26 years old from Oakland, CA), Thomas Stokes (31 years old from Hercules, CA), and Myrick Leslie Rucker (22 years old from Antioch, CA) each pled to a charge of 211 of the California Penal Code – Robbery.
Bailey, Stokes, and Rucker are to be sentenced at a later time for their crimes.
On Monday, August 26, 2013 at approximately 12:37 PM the Pleasanton Police Department received a 911 call from a resident on Roselma Place, just off upper Bernal Avenue, reporting that she and her husband had been robbed at gunpoint five minutes earlier.
The victim advised that she had just arrived home, exited her vehicle and was attempting to close the garage door when she was confronted by three men armed with guns. The suspects forced her into the house, where they confronted her husband as well, and demanded “the money.” The husband complied and gave them cash out of fear for his and his wife’s safety.
The husband had spent the previous night gambling at Casino 580 in Livermore. After winning an undisclosed amount of money, he took a cab home and fell asleep in a downstairs bedroom, leaving the cash beside him in a bag. The robbery occurred several hours later.
Investigators from the Pleasanton Police Department and California Department of Justice Bureau of Gambling Control conducted an extensive follow up investigation. The investigation revealed that Bailey and Stokes were at Casino 580 during the time the victim was gambling. They watched the victim throughout the night as he won a large amount of money and followed him home at around 6:30 AM. Bolden was called during this time and met up with Bailey and Stokes.
The home invasion robbery occurred approximately six hours later. During the robbery one of the suspects dropped his cellular smart phone inside the victim’s home. The phone was located during the initial investigation. It was determined to belong to Jakari Bolden. The investigation revealed Bolden had returned to Pleasanton with Rucker and one other subject and committed the robbery.
On October 24, 2013, multiple bay area agencies assisted the Pleasanton Police Department in the service of search and arrest warrants in Oakland and Hercules, at the homes of Bolden, Bailey, and Stokes. All three suspects were taken into custody at that time. On November 6, 2013, Rucker was arrested at his home in Antioch.
