The couple agreed to forfeit assets including a Lamborghini Urus, a Ferrari Portofino, gold coins and cash.

A criminal complaint alleges the crimes typically targeted senior citizens in shopping center parking lots or residential areas. Victims were often distracted by the suspects while their jewelry or other valuables were taken through sleight-of-hand techniques.

Additionally, the U.S. Attorney's Office alleges that the defendants took $32,250 in state unemployment benefits by filing false unemployment claims, and laundered that money as well. As part of the plea, the Ghiocels have agreed to forfeit assets including a white 2019 Lamborghini Urus, a black 2020 Ferrari Portofino, two gold coins worth $4,000 and $1,896.37 in cash.
