Certificate of destruction means the same as "non-repariable". That car was so extensively destroyed that rebuilding is impossible. A total burn or or rollover are examples. The intent of a COD is to prevent re-registration.
IIWY, I would take that car to a state police auto theft investigator for an inspection. I am guessing that IS300 is stolen and was re-vinned with the COD numbers.
The thieves just made a cool $2500 profit on behalf of your brother.
