A major felony case involving an alleged armed carjacking, violent assault, and kidnapping is moving through the Cumberland County court system, with co-defendant Brooke Ann Crabtree, arrested on March 19th 2025, set for a court deadline hearing on July 21, 2026.

According to court records, Crabtree—represented by attorney Joseph T. Wyatt—faces a raft of severe criminal charges stemming from a February 2025 indictment. Her bond has been set at $300,000.

The Alleged Incident

The charges trace back to a violent incident on September 10, 2024, when Crabtree and two co-defendants, Chase Edward Trisdale and Robert Aguilar Garay III, allegedly targeted two victims.

Court records outline a harrowing sequence of events:

• Unlawful Confinement: The trio allegedly kidnapped and unlawfully confined both victims to facilitate a robbery and vehicle break-in.

• Armed Escalation: Garay is accused of brandishing a black handgun to place the victims in fear of imminent injury or death.

• Physical Assault: Both Crabtree and Trisdale allegedly inflicted bodily injury on a male victim during the encounter.

Stolen Property and Vehicle Burglary

During the alleged robbery, the suspects took a wallet, credit cards, an out-of-state driver’s license, two cell phones, $1,000 in cash, and the key fob to a 2014 Chevrolet Volt directly from the victims.

Crabtree and Trisdale are further accused of breaking into the Chevrolet Volt to steal personal items, including CDs, a hatchet, and a sheathed knife.

Current Court Status

Crabtree faces multiple formal charges, including:

• Aggravated Kidnapping

• Aggravated Robbery

• Robbery

• Auto Burglary

• Theft (Up to $1,000)

Co-defendant Chase Edward Trisdale, who is represented by a public defender and held on a $500,000 bond, was scheduled for a separate court deadline hearing in late June. Crabtree’s deadline hearing will take place in Cumberland County General Sessions/Circuit Court on July 21, 2026.
