Suspect to Plead Guilty in $1 Million Hotel Robbery

A man expected to plead guilty in the armed robbery of a $1 million watch at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel highlights a significant case of “crime tourism.” Jamer Mauricio Sepulveda Salazar, a 22-year-old from Colombia, will enter a plea to a federal charge related to the heist, which occurred last August while a British tourist dined with his family. Authorities are also investigating the mysterious possession of a handgun linked to Christopher Dorner, a former LAPD officer infamous for a deadly rampage in 2013.

This robbery, which involved suspects allegedly part of an international theft network, underscores a concerning trend in high-value thefts targeting wealthy tourists. A co-defendant, 19-year-old Jesus Eduardo Padron Rojas from Venezuela, is set to stand trial next month. Law enforcement recovered the stolen watch in Miami, raising further questions about the suspects’ crime spree, which includes an earlier robbery of a Rolex in Beverly Hills.
