On June 17th, 2025, the arrest of Shelle Revivo, age 35, was announced by Brooklyn District Attorney Eric Gonzalez. Shelle Revivo was charged with second-degree Burglary, second-degree Grand Larceny, second-degree Criminal Possession of a Forged Instrument, first-degree Offering a False Instrument for Filing, and first-degree Falsifying Business Records. The arrest and charges against Shelle Revivo were a result of an investigation handled by Chief of the Frauds Bureau and Assistant District Attorney Michel Spanakos, Deputy Chief of the Investigations Division, and Chief of the Investigations Division Assistant District Attorney Patricia McNeill.
According to the Brooklyn District Attorney’s Office, on August 1st, 2024 Shelle Revivo had allegedly forged a deed for a single family home in Sheepshead Bay, New York. The content of the deed included numerous forged signatures and outdated notary stamps, and Shelle Revivo was able to transfer the Sheepshead Bay, New York property in her name for only $10 despite having no connection to the prior owner. Allegedly after Shelle Revivo moved into the property she acquired, she opened a utility account and received gas services while illegally being in the house. The defendant attempted to file another fraudulent deed for a property in Manhattan, New York with a deceased owner, however the filing was ultimately rejected.
The Brooklyn District Attorney’s Office stated that the charges against Shelle Revivo are merely accusations, and the defendant is presumed innocent unless proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.
