6 Arrests: DUI, Theft and More
All arrestees are innocent until proven guilty. We also remind our readers that West Boca has a very low crime rate compared to the rest of the county and the rest of South Florida. In the spirit of innocent until proven otherwise, those facing criminal charges are still afforded legal representation in order for their rights to be upheld.
We have a few more arrests to report from the past week. Above center, Jean Phillippe Gauthier (age 42) was arrested late Friday by Boca PD, and booked early Saturday morning, for DUI, drug possession, and possession of drug equipment. The drugs included Adderall, Oxycontin and Valium. This appears to be a “drug” DUI, which are difficult cases for the prosecution to prove.
Top left, Lucianne Morello (35) was arrested for DUI by Boca PD late Wednesday or early Thursday. Her reported address is in Villa San Remo off Lyons Road. In late 2011 she was charged with battery on a police officer. That charge was reduced and then resolved with “pre-trial diversion.” We’re not sure it’s the same person, but a Lucianne Morello was involved in a big federal mortgage fraud case in the greater NYC area a few years ago. She was apparently involved with AGA Capital/Lending Universe.
On the far right in the top photo, Robert Jones was arrested by Boca PD on Wednesday for some form of stalking. His address is listed only as “At Large” in the 33428 zip code. We reported last month that they arrested him for a non-moving traffic violation.
Jennifer Byrd (left, 31) was arrested Thursday for drug possession, fraud and petit theft. The court records indicate offense dates in September and November. That strikes us as odd, especially with drug possession. The prosecutor may have a tough time proving this one. She was released on Friday. Ms. Byrd had a felony charge back in 2007 that was dropped, and a misdemeanor theft charge in 2008 that was also dropped. The Spanish River grad’s reported address is southeast of the corner of Lyons and SW 8th St not far from Hammock Pointe Elementary.
Robert Lovin (center, 25) was arrested Tuesday for grand theft of a motor vehicle. His reported address is in Mission Bay near Boca Prep. He has a retail theft charge pending from a week earlier, and he had one in 2009 that was dropped by prosecutors. The Olympic Heights grad also studied at Palm Beach State.
Last, Johnathan Greenfield (right, 44) was arrested early Monday by Boca PD, also for grand theft of a motor vehicle. His reported address is in Seasons of Boca Raton. We’re not sure, but it looks like he is a psychiatrist operating out of St. Mary’s Hospital in West Palm Beach with a secondary office on 441 in West Boca. He was last in the news in 2010 related to an employee accused of writing bogus prescriptions.
