Between 2017 and 2018, authorities said Ackerman is suspected of stealing fine wine, jewelry, rare artwork, and designer clothing.
A search warrant was served at a residence and storage unit in September and authorities found more than 2,000 items. Authorities did not give a specific dollar amount on how much the items were worth, but said it totaled "millions of dollars."
Authorities said Ackerman would tour open homes and come back later to steal items he'd canvassed. Detectives were working to see what sort of team Ackerman may have had and who helped in the thefts.

Detectives also said the thefts were sophisticated and involved manipulated surveillance videos.
