The Westchester County District Attorney’s office announced on Jan. 25 that a man has been sentenced to 18 year to life in state prison for burglarizing 11 homes throughout the county in 2014.
Angelo Carzoglio, a 52-year-old from Manhattan, was found guilty of participating in a burglary ring that affected homes across Harrison, Irvington, Rye Brook, Tarrytown, Bedford, New Castle and Mamaroneck between June 2014 and October 2014; he was also connected to burglaries in Long Island, Putnam County, Connecticut and New Jersey.
Last November, Carzoglio was convicted of 11 counts of second-degree burglary, third-degree possession of stolen property, and fourth-degree conspiracy, which are all felonies. Carzoglio was also found guilty of possession of burglar’s tools and unlawful possession of radio devices, both misdemeanors.
In October 2014, he was arrested by the Harrison Police Department after committing a burglary in Fairfield, Connecticut.
According to the DA’s office, at the time, police discovered thousands of dollars worth of jewelry that Carzoglio and his co-conspirators stole from the home in Connecticut. After the incident, police searched Carzoglio’s home in Manhattan and identified a number of items that were stolen from homes in Westchester.
Police also discovered one of Carzoglio’s co-conspirators, a jeweler who bought and sold stolen jewelry out of an office in the “Diamond District” in midtown Manhattan.
Assistant district attorneys Joseph DiBenedetto and Brian Fitzgerald prosecuted the case.
