Calvin Ushery, Jr., a known repeat offender with a history of violent crimes, was arrested on September 22, 2022, and charged with multiple serious offenses, including robbery and possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony. He had some of the stolen jewelry in his possession when he was taken into custody.
His extensive police record made him a high-profile suspect, and he was held at the Howard R. Young Correctional Institution on a hefty $130,500 cash-only bail.

In the aftermath of the Mistrial
This week the jury failed to reach a verdict after two days of deliberation. And it was declared a mistrial. Prosecutors have announced their intention to refile charges against Ushery.
“My father came to this country with the hope of economic promise,” Steve Suh wrote on the GoFundMe page for his father. “For years, he worked 12-hour days as a cashier and saved. Used his savings to open a small grocery store, then finally a jewelry store called Solid Gold. This store holds a special place for my family. It put me through college and provided a place for my brother, a combat Veteran, to go after he came back from overseas battered and lost. My father loves this store and he loves the community which surrounds it. He loves his customers, and I would like to think that there is mutual admiration and respect for every gold chain across the counter.”
