Pengi Grace Mboma, 34, of St. Michael, has been charged with one felony count of Predatory Offender - Intentionally provides false information (243.166.5(a)(2)).

▪️ The defendant allegedly provided a non-existent primary residence address to law enforcement during the predatory offender registration process.
▪️ According to the complaint, a compliance check by the Wright County Sheriff's Office confirmed the location provided by the defendant does not exist in county records.
▪️ Homeowners at a similar residence reportedly told deputies the defendant never lived there and was not welcome at the property.
▪️ A warrant was issued for the defendant's arrest due to a reported history of failing to appear for previous court proceedings.

Details of the Incident

According to the complaint, the Wright County Sheriff's Office received notification on October 20, 2025, that Mboma had moved into the county and updated his predatory offender registration. The defendant reportedly listed a primary residence on 26th Street Northeast in St. Michael. However, a review of sheriff's office records and the Beacon property system allegedly revealed that the specific address provided by the defendant does not exist.

In 2024, the sheriff’s office reportedly responded to several calls for service involving the defendant at a different residence in St. Michael. According to the complaint, the homeowners at that location informed investigators that the defendant never resided there, was not welcome, and would not be permitted to live at the home.

Court Proceedings

The defendant was charged via warrant and is currently out of custody. According to the complaint, the warrant was requested by the State because the defendant failed to appear for court in a separate case in October 2024 and did not reappear for that matter until November 2025.

Cody David Remarcik, 51, of Big Lake, has been charged with two counts of felony theft - take/use/transfer movable property without consent (609.52.2(a)(1)) and two counts of felony theft by swindle (609.52.2(a)(4)).

▪️ Remarcik, acting as a "Vice President" for an Albertville excavating business, allegedly embezzled $65,151.53 from his employer over a two-year period.
▪️ The defendant reportedly instructed customers to write checks for company materials and equipment rentals directly to him rather than the business.
▪️ According to the complaint, Remarcik admitted to "getting creative" with sales and creating unauthorized invoices because he claimed the company was not paying its bills.

Details of the Incident

On May 27, 2025, the Wright County Sheriff’s Office reportedly received a report of employee theft from the owner of D3 Excavating in Albertville. According to the complaint, the owner, identified as BJN, discovered the alleged activity when a vendor asked to purchase more "black dirt," stating they had been purchasing materials from Remarcik for the past year. BJN reportedly told deputies he was unaware the company had sold any materials to that vendor previously.

Investigators reportedly interviewed the owner of the vendor company, who stated she had purchased dirt seven to eight times and rented heavy equipment through the defendant. Because the payments to Remarcik were so substantial, the vendor reportedly created a tax form for him. According to the complaint, a review of bank records allegedly revealed that Remarcik received numerous checks written directly to him from various businesses for "swamp mats" and other materials, totaling over $65,000 between March 2023 and July 2025.

He allegedly admitted to placing ads on Facebook under his own name to sell materials and confirmed he requested that checks be written directly to him. While the defendant reportedly claimed the money went back into the business to help pay bills, the owner of the company reportedly verified that employees were never authorized to accept personal checks or handle payments in that manner.

Court Proceedings

The defendant was charged via summons and is currently out of custody.
