Jennifer Gomez, once one of Florida’s most notorious burglars, is back in the spotlight in May 2026 after a Rolling Stone profile and her viral TikTok videos brought her story to a new generation. Between 2004 and 2011, Gomez admitted to breaking into more than 200 homes across the state, stealing an estimated $7 million in cash, jewelry, and valuables.
Her ability to slip in and out of high-end neighborhoods without leaving a trace earned her the nickname “Cat Burglar.” Now, she’s helping others avoid becoming victims of the same crimes. After years of evading law enforcement, she was finally caught because of a shady store owner who melted down stolen gold for her.
