Kaleb Williams and five accomplices stole nearly $500,000 from a Lancaster jewelry store in 2019, the U.S. Attorney’s Office said.
A 38-year old Long Beach resident was sentenced Friday to nearly 30 years in federal prison for leading several armed robberies in Antelope Valley, the U.S. Attorney’s Office announced.
The crimes, according to a U.S. Attorney’s Office news release, were committed in 2019 and were led by Williams and a co-conspirator, Terrance Cleyon Pearson, 44, of Long Beach, who has also since been convicted. Williams and the five accomplices robbed 348 pieces of jewelry, worth about $479,000, from a Lancaster jewelry store in July 2019, the release said. They also stole a Glock firearm and caused around $5,000 worth of damage before fleeing the scene.
