Miami Hospital Worker Arrested for Allegedly Snatching Patient’s $45K Rolex
Miami’s Keralty Hospital is in shock after a staff member was allegedly caught on camera stealing a luxury Rolex from an elderly patient.
Yudier Sanchez, 46, was taken into custody Friday and now faces second-degree grand theft and exploitation of an elderly or disabled person charges.
Here’s what went down:
- The 75-year-old patient was admitted on September 29, 2024
Hospital staff removed all her jewelry, including a $45,000 gold Rolex Presidential, documented it, and placed it in a yellow envelope for safekeeping
After the patient was discharged on October 7, her daughter noticed the Rolex was missing
Surveillance footage reportedly shows Sanchez entering the patient’s room with the envelope, taking a camera and jewelry, and then sneaking the Rolex into his jacket pocket — all while pretending to return it to the envelope. 👀
Sanchez was suspended by the hospital for breaking internal policies and denied the theft when questioned at arrest. Over the weekend, a judge set his bond at $10,000, and he remains in custody pending further proceedings.
Miami, yikes… trust no one with your Rolex, apparently. 😬
