OH - Roger Dillon & Nicole Boyd for $8 million robbery, Liberty, 2007

I was wondering how these two were. They left the rent. Wow! Maybe the apology was because they have a conscience and basically felt the landloard would think less of them? I'd have left her five times that amount and not said "Sorry". Naw, I'm kidding. Young kids too.

YOUNGSTOWN — Two of the three people charged in the $7.4 million robbery of AT Systems, an armored car company in Liberty, are at the Federal Transfer Center in Oklahoma City, Okla. (in pretrial detention).

On the night of Nov. 26, when the armored car company had cash from the busy post-Thanksgiving holiday shopping weekend, Dillon entered the building using another employee's security code, his statement said. He pulled a truck into a garage and loaded it with bags.
Boyd sat inside the truck and helped pull the bags inside. They made one stop on the way to West Virginia — at a McDonald's where they disposed of their cell phones.
They spent the next few days counting stacks of money. Gregory wrote in her statement that she recorded totals in a notebook.
They had no plan on what to do next.

Roger Dillon and Nicole Boyd both face up to 25 years in prison and a $250,000 fine if convicted. I never get the fine part in cases like this. They stole the money in the first place 'cause they didn't have any. :doh: :crazy:

Thanks, JE for the update. No matter what kids always stop at a McDonald's. Crisis, robbery, armored car heists. Stop at McDonald's.

AKRON — Roger L. Dillon — who will spend eight years in federal prison for stealing nearly $8 million from an armored car company in Liberty — told U.S. District Judge John R. Adams on Thursday that the heist was a stupid thing to do.
“I can’t look back and justify what I did,” Dillon, 23, of Youngstown said in federal court. “Things seemed hopeless, and this seemed like a way out.”

His mom got three years. Lots of interesting info about how everything went down in that article, too. Very well done (from the reporter, I mean ).
