Charges and allegations Authorities accuse Arnold of leading a plot on Feb. 4 in which three men in their late teens were held at gunpoint, battered and robbed inside a Tampa apartment. Investigators said the victims had no connection to a February theft of more than $250,000 in personal property from Arnold and others at an Airbnb rental in nearby Largo.
Police described Arnold as the primary conspirator. At least seven people face charges in the case, including two who pleaded guilty Wednesday and are cooperating with prosecutors. One of those defendants was immediately sentenced to four years in prison.
Defense response Arnold turned himself in Wednesday night. His attorney, R.
Timothy Jansen, told the court that Arnold is "absolutely denying these allegations."
