Angelina Chenel Esty (Miami-Dade Corrections and Rehabilitation).

A Florida woman was recently arrested for stealing men”s luxury watches in a familiar drugging and burglary scheme, police say.

And, authorities say this is not her first time.

Angelina Chenel Esty, age 25, faces charges of burglary of an occupied residence and theft valued between $20,000 and $100,000, as stated by the Miami Police Department.

The underlying incident allegedly occurred on Aug. 9, at an apartment on Brickell Bay Drive, police say.

Lately, a man reported awakening to find his $20,000 Rolex missing, alongside $4,000 in cash and his friend’s $1,000 imitation Rolex, according to an arrest report accessed by Miami-based Fox and ABC affiliate WSVN and local independent TV station WPLG.

The man informed authorities that he and his friend encountered Esty and another woman at Blackbird Ordinary bar, situated a short distance from his apartment, and later departed together in the early hours.

Authorities claim video evidence from the bar showed Esty and her alleged partner present that evening. Subsequently, the man identified her from a photographic lineup, according to police.

Investigators say the victim’s friend also suffered an “unauthorized $500 Cash App transaction,” according to the arrest report.

The victim, for his part, described a limited recollection of the evening and surmised he had been drugged, police said.

Esty is described as a “known offender with prior arrests for similar bad date thefts,” by detectives in the report.

In May, the defendant turned herself in to police in Doral – a medium-sized city in the Miami metro area – over similar allegations.

In three separate incidents dating back to March, Esty was identified as the suspect, according to WSVN.

During the initial incident, a man recounted to police his meeting with the suspect at E11EVEN nightclub in Miami on March 10. After they returned to his residence, he consumed one drink, felt ill, and lost consciousness. Upon regaining awareness, he reportedly discovered both the woman and his Rolex missing.

In a separate case, another man stated he encountered two women at Blackbird Ordinary on March 22, took them back to his apartment, continued drinking until they fell asleep, and upon waking, realized the women, an $11,000 Rolex, $8,000 in cash, and a pair of sunglasses were missing—but found a purse left behind, which supposedly held the suspect’s ID.

In the third incident, a man reported meeting Esty at the Fontainebleau Hotel in Miami Beach on April 21, taking her back to his hotel room, drinking one drink she served him, passing out, and waking up to find that the woman, a $20,000 Rolex watch, and a $10,000 diamond bracelet had all disappeared, according to law enforcement.

Esty is currently detained in the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center on $5,000 bond – after being granted bond on Friday.

The defendant is next slated to appear in court for her arraignment on Oct. 24.
