A former home-care assistant from Randolph is facing multiple charges in connection with a multimillion-dollar jewelry heist from a Jamaica Plain home last year, authorities announced Thursday.

Cory Kisakye, 27, was arrested Tuesday in Miami and charged with unarmed burglary, breaking into a depository, and larceny from a building, according to a statement from the Boston Police Department.  

The charges stem from a Nov. 19, 2025, break-in at a home within a gated community on Allandale Road. Investigators said the suspects accessed the residence through the rear basement entrance before stealing a collection of fine jewelry stored in a locked safe. 

Police reported the stolen items to be diamond rings, luxury watches, gold bracelets, pearl necklaces, and designer products from brands such as Tiffany and Co., Piaget, Chopard, and De Grisogono. 

“Known values for individual items ranged from $1,000 to $850,000, with the total loss estimated to be in the millions,” police said in the statement. 

Surveillance footage from a neighboring home captured two individuals walking away from the rear of the property around the time of the burglary, authorities said.

The victims told police that Kisayke had previously worked for them as a home-care assistant and had “detailed knowledge of the property,” including the safe combination. 

Investigators ultimately recovered a fingerprint at the scene that matched Kisakye’s and obtained GPS data placing him near the home around the time of the burglary, as well as a month prior on a “suspected reconnaissance visit,” police said.

Within days of the break-in, records show Kisayke traveled to Miami, where police allege he sold a stolen gold bracelet for $11,000.

Detectives also identified what they described as a pattern of pawn transactions and a significant increase in his cash activity in the weeks following the theft, according to the police statement. 

Authorities allege Kisakye visited a jewelry store in Randolph on Dec. 8, 2025, to sell gold jewelry. The following day, investigators say, he purchased a one-way ticket to Entebbe, Uganda, and declared $54,000 in cash before departing the country. 

“Investigators believe he fled to avoid prosecution,” police said. 

Kisakye was arraigned in the West Roxbury Division of Boston Municipal Court, where he pleaded not guilty to all charges, according to court records.

He was initially ordered held without bail after prosecutors requested a dangerousness hearing. The outcome of Friday morning’s hearing was not immediately available. 

The attorney representing Kisakye for his bail and dangerousness hearings declined to comment Friday morning.
