was busted in New Jersey for possession
of a handgun and marijuana on
Monday, Dec. 7.
Dubose’s manager Salmblou Camara
and Qushaun Hagler, a member
of his personal security team, were
also found guilty of several charges
including possession of marijuana,
unlawful possession of a handgun
and possession of a large capacity
magazine.
On Dec. 7, Bergen County and
NYPD detectives and offi cers from
the Demarest Police Department, executed
a search warrent at Dubose’s
New Jersey home.
The team seized four guns — a Ruger
.380 handgun, a Glock .40 caliber
handgun, an H&K 9mm handgun and
a Smith and Wesson 9mm handgun —
hollow point bullets and high capacity
magazines. They also found marijuana,
hashish oil edibles and “drug

with the distribution of controlled
dangerous substances.”
The three were released and will
appear in Central Judicial Processing
Court at a later date.

Man arrested in Ponzi scheme
BY JASON COHEN
A Bronx man who allegedly funneled
money through a Ponzi scheme
run by an attorney in New Jersey is
BRONX TIMES R 54 EPORTER, DECEMBER 18-24, 2020 BTR
now facing time in the slammer.
Back in February, Bergen County
detectives began getting complaints
from multiple investors about Chander
Singh Esq. and his company SC Capital
Investors LLC. The investors alleged
that Singh’s company owed
them money from “various real estate
transactions.” The investigation
found that Singh and SC Capital Investors,
a failed real estate renovation
company, engaged in a “Ponzi-like
scheme,” promising investors “double
digit returns.”
The scheme involved Jerez creating
a front company called A Jerez Realty
LLC, which utilized SC Capital Investors
LLC “as a way to obscure illicit
proceeds generated by a cellular telephone
business in an amount greater
than $75,000 in an effort to make the
funds appear legitimate.”
Authorities arrested Jerez on Dec. 7
and charged him with money laundering
conspiracy, evading a transaction
reporting requirement conspiracy and
committing money laundering with
the purpose of facilitating a crime conspiracy.
Jerez is currently being held in
Bergen County Jail pending his fi rst
appearance in Central Judicial Processing
Court.
