Waukesha County burglaries
The backstory:
In December, Waukesha County prosecutors presented evidence that the men were part of a large group who illegally entered the U.S. from Chile. They were based in Florida and drove to Wisconsin multiple times.
The burglaries happened in October 2025 and December 2025.
Prosecutors said the three men targeted "expensive" homes in the town of Delafield that had woods in the backyard. They broke glass windows or doors to get inside and stole "high-value items such as jewelry." They were accused of using Wi-Fi signal jammers to block home security systems.

Dig deeper:
In a separate case in Ozaukee County, Rojas Silva and Silva Cifuentes are accused of committing multiple burglary-related crimes.
Prosecutors said the charges stem from three different Mequon burglaries, which were carried out in a similar fashion to those in Waukesha County, that happened in May 2025 and October 2025.
