Jacksonville, Florida – Senior U.S. District Judge Brian J. Davis has sentenced Rohan Conrad Campbell (50, Jamaica) to four years and six months in federal prison for wire fraud and aggravated identity theft. The court also ordered Campbell to forfeit $4,207, which represents the proceeds of his offenses, and pay restitution of $80,208.08 to the victims he defrauded. Campbell entered a guilty plea on December 13, 2023.
According to the plea agreement and public records, on August 5, 2017, Campbell entered a cellphone store in Clay County and used a fraudulently established account and a counterfeit Washington state driver license, both in the name of a victim, and obtained multiple cellphones. On August 15, 2017, Campbell visited another cellphone store in Clay County to collect cellphones he had fraudulently ordered using another victim’s identity. A store employee recognized Campbell and called the Clay County Sheriff’s Office (CCSO). Upon arriving and making contact with Campbell, Campbell provided a deputy with a counterfeit Washington state driver license in the identity of a third victim. As a deputy was talking with him, Campbell attempted to flee but was apprehended. Further investigation by the CCSO and the U.S. Secret Service determined that Campbell had set up numerous fraudulent accounts using counterfeit identification documents in the identity of 10 different victims. He obtained thousands of dollars of cellphones from multiple stores in Florida.
Campbell was arrested on May 31, 2018. After being released on pre-trial supervision, he fled the jurisdiction in August 2019 and a warrant was issued for his arrest. Campbell remained a fugitive for more than three years until law enforcement in Florida arrested him in early 2023.
This case was investigated by the Clay County Sheriff’s Office and the U.S. Secret Service – Jacksonville Field Office. It was prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Kevin C. Frein. The asset forfeiture was handled by Assistant United States Attorney Jennifer M. Harrington.
