Woman arrested for running ‘illegal’ business claiming to fix customer’s credit issues, Pct. 4 says

HARRIS COUNTY – A Humble woman was arrested on Sunday for her alleged involvement in a $3,300,000 finance scheme conducted through her credit repair business, Harris County Precinct 4 officials said.

According to Constable Mark Herman, deputies conducted a raid at Rose Credit Repair in the 15300 block of John F. Kennedy Boulevard in north Harris County.

Court documents state the business’s owner, 29-year-old Roekeicha Lashay Brisby, was involved in the scheme which began around Nov. 2020 and lasted until March 2022.

The record states Brisby used “fifty or more items of identifying information,” mainly the names, dates of birth, social security numbers, and ID’s, of the victims involved.

Documents also state Brisby filed around 133 false reports about the loss or theft of credit cards, while seeking to erase about $1,400,000 in client debt on behalf of 74 people.

After a lengthy investigation inside of the business, deputies found information indicating that Brisby’s business “would fix people’s credit through illegal means.”

Photos taken by investigators show a banner from Rose Credit Repair that claims to help customers “raise their credit score by 50-100 points,” and “use the Law to remove common errors” such as late payments, bankruptcies, and settlements.

The business also claimed that customers would see results “in 35 days or less.”

Brisby has been charged with felony Forgery of a Government instrument in this case.

She is expected in court on Monday, July 11.

After additional investigation, KPRC 2 learned that this is not Brisby’s first arrest.

Back in 2019, Brisby was arrested and charged with injury to a child after authorities say she and her boyfriend placed her then 7-year-old son in a scalding hot shower after the child reportedly misbehaved at school.

Her boyfriend at the time, Mark Terrell, was accused of forcing the child to stand in a shower as he sprayed him with the hot water, resulting in burns on his head, face, neck and chest.

She was able to post a $125,000 bond and is expected back in court for that charge on Oct. 3, 2022.
