[LadyL]

so right now she's eligible for 120 years in prison

wonder what made her abandon the attempt at Liberty Savings Bank on April 9? and then be bold enough to rob First Bank a mere 12 minutes later!

I'm looking at the locations of those banks, and they are interesting because 5 out of the 6 banks are not just very close to a major highway/interstate, but close to more than one such highway.

3600 Quebec is very close to both I-70 and I-270 and two or three exits from the I-70/I-225 interchange.

6405 E Hampden is right next to I-25 and one exit away from the 25/225 interchange.

6460 E Yale is less than half a mile from 25 and two exits from the 25/225 interchange.

8901 E Hampden is half a mile or so from I-225 and two exits from the 25/225 interchange.

18520 Green Valley Ranch is right next to Pena, which is basically a highway itself and feeds into both I-70 and I-225 a couple miles from the bank in one direction, and E-470 a couple miles in the other direction.


So all of those locations make pretty good sense from a getaway standpoint, but 3410 E 1st ave is a HUGE exception. If I were going to rob a bank that is pretty much the last place I would try it, that area is extremely upscale and teeming with cops, traffic is horrible, and it is not close to an interstate at all. That is a profoundly stupid bank to try to rob, I'm really confused by that one.

I'm guessing this woman lives in Aurora, probably somewhere pretty close to I-225. None of these banks are in Aurora, but all but one (again, the E 1st Avenue one) are close to it, and it would be smart for the robber to not rob banks in the police jurisdiction of their home.
