BOSTON, Mass.- A Randolph man has been arrested in connection with a Jamaica Plain multimillion-dollar residential burglary involving the theft of fine jewelry from a locked safe inside a private home, according to investigators.
Cory Kisakye, 27, of Randolph, Massachusetts, was taken into custody on May 26, 2026, by members of the Boston Police Fugitive Unit. He was arraigned in West Roxbury District Court on charges including unarmed burglary, breaking into a depository, and larceny from a building.
The investigation was led by detectives from the Boston Police Department with assistance from the Latent Prints Unit, the Randolph Police Department, and law enforcement partners in Florida.
The burglary occurred during the early morning hours of November 19, 2025, at a residence on Allandale Road in Jamaica Plain, within a gated community. Surveillance footage from a neighboring property captured two individuals walking away from the rear of the home at approximately 11:59 p.m. on November 18, 2025, consistent with the timeframe of the break-in.
Investigators said entry was made through a rear basement entrance, after which access was gained to a locked safe room. A large collection of fine jewelry was removed, including diamond rings, luxury watches, gold bracelets, pearl necklaces, and designer pieces from brands including Tiffany & Co., Piaget, Chopard, and De Grisogono. Individual items were valued between approximately $1,000 and $850,000, with total losses estimated in the millions.
Authorities said Kisakye previously worked for the homeowners as a home-care assistant and had detailed knowledge of the property, including the location of the safe and its combination.
Detectives used surveillance footage, court-authorized search warrants, financial records, and forensic analysis to identify a suspect. A fingerprint recovered at the scene was matched to Kisakye, and GPS data reportedly placed him near the residence around the time of the burglary, as well as during a suspected reconnaissance visit approximately one month earlier.
Investigators also documented post-burglary financial activity. Within days of the incident, Kisakye traveled to Miami, Florida, where records show he sold a gold bracelet for $11,000. Additional pawn transactions and increased cash activity were identified in the weeks that followed.
On December 8, 2025, surveillance officers observed Kisakye at a jewelry store in Randolph where he had previously sold gold items. The following day, he purchased a one-way international ticket and departed the United States for Entebbe, Uganda, declaring $54,000 in cash at departure. Investigators believe he left the country to avoid prosecution.
Members of the Boston Police Fugitive Unit later traveled to Miami, where Kisakye was taken into custody on May 26, 2026, and returned to Suffolk County for arraignment.
