"I am incredibly proud of the Violent Crimes Unit's hard work that led to the arrest of these violent criminals," stated Sheriff Carmine Marceno. "With help from the Southwest Florida Crime Stoppers, our analysts, and the Fugitive Warrant Unit, my detectives were able to quickly identify and locate the suspects involved. I always stress — see it, say it, make the call. The tips we received regarding this incident were a crucial part of bringing justice to the victim." On Friday, July 4th, 5th Precinct Deputies responded to Miscue Lounge after learning of a shooting that just occurred. Deputies immediately began to secure the scene, and due to the nature of the crime, our Violent Crimes Unit responded and assumed control of the investigation.After reviewing surveillance, detectives learned the suspects parked at the Miscue Lounge, proceeded to enter and exit the building, and eventually started an altercation that led to the victim being shot.

Upon arrival, deputies detained the individual, and our Economic Crimes Unit arrived on scene to assume the investigation. Detectives identified the suspect as 20-year-old 𝙎𝙩𝙚𝙥𝙝𝙖𝙣𝙞𝙚 𝘼𝙜𝙪𝙞𝙡𝙚𝙧𝙖 𝙈𝙤𝙨𝙦𝙪𝙚𝙙𝙖.It was learned that Mosqueda had attempted to deposit similar checks at multiple Regions Bank locations earlier that same day. At each location, she would leave abruptly when asked to provide identification. The checks in question were made out to various individuals, all issued from a company with a listed address in Tampa. Detectives contacted the company named on the checks, who stated that they are based outside of Florida and have no ties to Tampa. The company’s financial manager also verified that none of the names listed on the fraudulent checks were known to them.
