Suffolk County District Attorney Raymond A. Tierney announced on Dec. 23 that defendant Kenyonne Fleurinay of Huntington Station was sentenced to 13 years in prison after pleading guilty in September to Attempted Kidnapping in the Second Degree and then failing to voluntarily return to court for sentence.

“Not only did this defendant violently abduct a person that he should have cared for, but he was brazen enough to abscond from court and commit another felony while on the run,” said District Attorney Tierney. “This defendant’s actions have earned him a significant sentence.”

On March 6, 2022, Fleurinay, 23, abducted his 20-year-old girlfriend from America’s Best Value Inn in Smithtown following an argument, and drove her against her will into Brooklyn, New York. Surveillance video from a gas station in Melville captured the victim twice attempt to flee from Fleurinay’s car and Fleurinay twice violently throw the victim back into the vehicle. While driving from Suffolk to Kings County, Fleurinay repeatedly whipped the victim about her body with a phone charger. During the abduction, the victim’s mother contacted the defendant and pleaded with him to return her daughter until he ultimately drove her back to Suffolk County, where he was apprehended by the Suffolk County Police Department.

Fleurinay, pleaded guilty on September 9, 2022, to Attempted Kidnapping in the Second Degree, a Class C violent felony, before Supreme Court Justice, the Honorable John B. Collins.  He was scheduled to be sentenced on September 23, 2022. However, Fleurinay failed to return to court for sentence and a warrant was issued for his immediate arrest. On October 30, 2022, he was arrested by the Nassau County Police Department for Criminal Possession of a Controlled Substance in the Third Degree, a Class B felony, and was returned to Suffolk County to face sentencing on this charge. Fleurinay was sentenced to 13 years in prison followed by 5 years post release supervision.

Suffolk County District Attorney Raymond A. Tierney announced on Dec. 21 that Jazzame Paranzino pled guilty to Attempted Grand Larceny in the Second Degree for stealing funds from the accounts of 11 residents who were in her care at a Maryhaven home.

Jazzame Paranzino

“This defendant stole funds from people with severe disabilities who were in need of 24-hour care,” said District Attorney Tierney. “These individuals and their families trusted her, and instead of honoring that trust, this defendant stole thousands of dollars from them for her own personal use.”

In her plea, Paranzino, 31, admitted that from January of 2020 to March 2021, she stole funds from the bank accounts of 11 residents while she was working as the site manager for Maryhaven Center of Hope, a residential facility in Medford. This residence houses severely developmentally disabled adults who are unable to care for themselves in many ways, including managing their own finances.

As site manager, Paranzino had control of and access to the bank accounts and debit cards of the 11 residents. 2 One of her responsibilities was to withdraw money to place in each residents’ petty cash envelope so they could go on outings to eateries and local stores. In addition, she was able to withdraw money for various expenditures for home goods for each resident, such as furniture and electronics.

Paranzino took money from the residents’ bank accounts under the guise of purchasing items that they needed, but instead she stole more than $50,000 from the residents.

Paranzino pleaded guilty to Attempted Grand Larceny in the Second Degree before Supreme Court Justice, the Honorable Timothy P. Mazzei. As a condition of her guilty plea, Paranzino has agreed to repay the monies stolen and will be sentenced to four months’ incarceration and five years’ probation.
