Miami property developer 'tried to poison his wife,' bombshell divorce records reveal as FBI raids lavish home
The wife of a prominent Miami property developer has accused him of poisoning her with deadly narcotics and hiring someone to kill her, according to bombshell divorce records.
Tatiana Pino, 55, married Sergio Pino, 67, the president of Century Homebuilders Group, in 1992. The couple share two daughters together, Alexander and Carolina Pino.
In 2022 Tatiana filed for divorce against Sergio and a startling detail emerged during their divorce proceedings, just hours after the FBI raided the developer's $7.9 million Coral Gables home and his office headquarters on Monday.
The raid was conducted after divorce records revealed that Tatiana was hospitalized on multiple occasions as doctors found fentanyl in her system, the Miami Herald reported. The agency is also investigating arson and hit-and-run related crimes against her and her sister.
During her deposition in September 2022, Tatiana said that she was sick for three years and was 'in and out of hospitals.'

At the time, Sergio's defense attorney, Sam Rabin, asked his client's wife: 'Do you believe that your husband poisoned you?'
'I believe that he did,' Tatiana replied.
She was admitted to Johns Hopkins Hospital in 2022, as doctor's struggled to diagnose her.
Tatiana struggled to breathe and had to intubated six times before doctors discovered that she had the deadly narcotic in her system, divorce records reviewed by the Miami Herald, revealed.
Once she was released, doctors told Sergio's wife not to return to her 'normal surroundings,' as she stayed at her sister's home while she recovered.
'They were scared for me because had this happened to me again, I would have been dead,' Tatiana said, according to records.
During her recovery Tatiana recalled that after moving out of the home with her husband, her symptoms started to disappear.
When asked by her husband's attorney what motive Sergio might have to poison her, Tatiana suggested that he was allegedly trying to kill her for financial gain.
'Well, I just don't think that my housekeepers would have a motive. He would have a money motive maybe. A financial motive' she previously said.
Rabin continued to question Tatiana but she was advised by her attorney, Raymond Rafool, not to speak about the investigation conducted by the federal Drug Enforcement Agency.

On Friday, Rafool told the Miami Herald that the FBI and the US Attorney's Office have since taken over the ongoing investigation.
Deanna Shifrin, Sergio's family lawyer, said that although Tatiana has been seen by multiple medical professionals over the years, she admitted under oath that none of her illnesses were confirmed to be caused by poisoning.
'In other words, there is no objective evidence that Mrs. Pino was poisoned by anyone,' Shifrin told DailyMail.com.
'To be clear, Mr. Pino is devastated by these attacks against him and his family and denies any suggestion that he is responsible for them.'
The lawyer added that the husband “has also been the victim of threats and acts of vandalism during his divorce proceedings.”
DailyMail.com contacted Rabin for comment.
In addition to the alleged attempts to poison his wife, Sergio has also been accused of trying to kill her in a hit-and-run.
In August 2023, a Home Depot truck reversed into Sergio's estranged wife's blue BMW while she pulled into the driveway of her home in Pinecrest.
According to home video surveillance, the unlicensed rental truck quickly fled the scene. Investigators believe that the incident was not an accident, the Miami Herald reported.
In March 2024, Bayron Bennett, a part-time employee of Sergio, told federal investigators that he and others were allegedly enlisted to harm Tatiana. The affidavit did not specify who recruited Bennett and his accomplices.

'It was apparent that this was an intentional act and not an accidental collision,' the FBI said in the criminal complaint against Bennett.
Along with Bennett, Micahael Dulfo, Edner Etienne and Jerren Howard, were charged with stalking Tatiana.
Dulfo, Bennett and Howard were also charged with arson after attacking Tatiana's sister's vehicle. They were also charged with a racketeering-related offense.
According to the indictment, the four men had 'the intent to kill, injure and intimidate' in acts that placed Tatiana and her sister 'in reasonable fear of death or serious bodily injury.'
The group of men are accused of committing the criminal acts between June 2022-March 2024, according to the indictment.
The four of them have all pleaded not guilty and are expected to face trial in Miami federal court in August.
Rabin, who is representing Sergio in respect to the FBI investigation, told DailyMail.com: 'We are aware of the investigation and we are cooperating fully with the authorities.'
During the raid on Monday night, Sergio's estate on Isla Dorada Blvd in Coral Gables, and his office headquarters on Ponce de Leon street were searched by the FBI.
In divorce court filings, Tatiana has said that she is entitled to alimony as she stopped working and became a stay-at-home mom for her and Sergio's children.
The filing added that the family lives 'a lavish and luxurious lifestyle' that Tatiana is not able to keep up with living on her own.
Sergio said that his wife 'expressly waived their right' to alimony through their original marital agreement, according to a counter-petition.

Tatiana came back and said that she signed a post-nuptial agreement 'under duress and coercion.'
The filing revealed that the pair first got married on April 9, 1992 in a civil ceremony, but on the day before their 'long-planned religious wedding ceremony and party,' Sergio allegedly 'ambushed' her with the agreement.
'These factors caused Ms. Pino to feel like she could not say no to signing the Postnuptial Agreement without disappointing her Husband — who she trusted — and also her family and friends who were looking forward to the following day’s celebration,' the filing said.
'For that reason, Tatiana argues that that the marital agreement is not enforceable.'
Sergio runs Century Homebuilders Group - the 'largest Hispanic-owned homebuilder in the nation,' according to the company's website.
He is largely known for his high-profile businessman status with influential connections to both state and local politicians.
In 2022, Sergio's company partnered with another successful Miami-based real-estate developer, Treo Group, and bought 10.5 acres in Florida City with plans to construct 131 townhomes, The Real Deal reported.
Century Homebuilders paid $6.3million for the project. The group recently finished a four-bedroom complex with 537 condos in Doral.
