“PROVIDENCE, R.I. (WPRI) – The car that police say had the body of Jassy Correia in the trunk had a stolen license plate out of California.
[SBM]
According to a spokesperson for the California Department of Motor Vehicles, the license plate on the car Coleman was driving when he was pulled over in Delaware last week was affixed with a license plate that was reported stolen in April 2017.
‘The California DMV received an application for replacement of the stolen plate on April 17, 2017,’ spokesperson Artemio Armenta told WFXT in Boston.
Armenta said the plate was stolen from a vehicle owner in Sacramento County, and it had been on a Subaru. Coleman was driving a Buick when he was arrested.

Coleman’s Facebook page says he started a job as a ‘systems engineer’ at Raytheon – a defense contractor in Portsmouth – in 2017 (the same year the plate was stolen).

Target 12 also reported that Providence police visited his apartment in February 2018 – one year before Correia went missing – because he was hearing someone knock at his door.
Police told Coleman there was nothing they could do unless he felt threatened, according to a dispatcher’s log.

The article has been updated with a correction:
“Correction: Officials in California initially told Boston 25 News the plates had been stolen in 2017. However, officials clarified to say the application for replacement plates was filed in 2017 and the plates were actually reported stolen in 2016. This story has been updated.” (BBM)
