Six Persons Indicted for Roles in Multi-State Retail Theft Ring

Multiple individuals face federal and state indictments in connection with a multi-state organized retail-theft ring that impacted Prince George’s County and other areas in Maryland, Delaware, and Pennsylvania.

The U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Maryland and the Prince George’s County State’s Attorney’s Office jointly announced, the indictments.

Cyan Simone Rocke and Marco Pernell Morgan of Washington, D.C. and Daryl Michael-Lashon Jackson of Laurel, Maryland have been charged in federal court with conspiracy to violate federal law, namely, the interstate transportation of stolen goods. Additionally, Rocke; Tia Courtney, Chyna Parker, and Quasaan Parker of Capitol Heights, Maryland, are further charged in the Prince George’s County Circuit Court with offenses associated with organized retail theft.

According to the federal indictment, between October 2025, and April 2026, Rocke, Morgan, and Jackson conspired to engage in the interstate transportation of stolen property. Through the scheme, prosecutors said the co-conspirators stole items from a nationwide retail corporation and other businesses selling goods, and then subsequently offered the products for sale on Instagram and other sites. Customers then paid for the stolen items by cash, bank transfers, or money transfer applications, including CashApp.

Officials said that between October 2025, and April 2026, the co-conspirators allegedly stole more than $48,000 in merchandise from stores located in Columbia, Rockville, and Timonium, Maryland; Newark, Delaware; and King of Prussia, Pennsylvania.

Prosecutors said the co-conspirators engaged in serial, coordinated thefts from one retailer’s locations throughout the Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and Washington, D.C. region.

An indictment is not a finding of guilt. Individuals charged by indictment are presumed innocent until proven guilty at a later criminal proceeding.

If convicted on the federal charges, Rocke, Morgan, and Jackson each face up to five years in federal prison for the conspiracy.
