Wasn’t this the plot of that Kristen Stewart movie?
Kevin Hart’s personal shopper, Dylan Syer, a resident of Long Island City, was charged in New York on Wednesday on charges including major theft. Syer is said to have used credit cards from Hart, 41, to fund a lavish lifestyle, including Patek Philippe watches, Louis Vuitton bags and a painting by Sam Friedman.
Queens County DA Melinda Katz claims that Syer, 29, hired by Hart in 2015, started small making legitimate, authorized purchases for his client, before using Hart’s credit cards to route money to his personal accounts and purchase items that he then sent to his brought home. and business. The alleged cost is nearly $ 1.2 million over the course of two years.
Syer’s alleged wealth of ill-gotten goods – including more than 20 collectible art world dolls from Bearbrick and Bieber-beloved KAWS – is currently being hunted by prosecutors. He will be back in court on February 17 and will face up to 25 years in prison if convicted.
DA Katz thanked Hart for cooperating with her press release; presumably this will be his preferred legal interaction from February 2021.
