They first got arrested back in December of 2022 after Chesapeake Police were investigating a string of blue box break-ins using stolen arrow keys.
Arrow keys are used to open blue boxes and other mailboxes in a given zip code. They go for thousands of dollars on the dark web, according to law enforcement.
