CAREER OFFENDER SENTENCED TO 151 MONTHS IN FEDERAL PRISON

United States Attorney Johnny Sutton announced today that 55-year old Robert D.J. Robinson was sentenced to 151 months in federal prison and ordered to pay $1,265.00 in restitution for robbing the Guaranty Bank in Waco last year.

On December 12, 2006, Robinson walked into a Guaranty Bank in Waco and presented a bank robbery demand note to a bank teller. The note read:

“Do as this note tells you to do. Don’t make me hurt no one. Cause if you do you will be this frist one I hurt. Just give me the money. Don’t give me no dye pack in it or any tracer in the money. Don’t be a fool and start any probelms. Don’t pull no alarms till I am out of here. Thank you have a nice day Merry Xmas 100's, 50s, 20s, 10s & 5's only. No 1s or change. Hurry up don’t be stalling me. I am not dumb. It only takes seconds.”

The bank teller complied with the robber’s demand and handed him $1,265.00 in United States currency. The next day, Robinson was positively identified by the bank teller from a photo spread.

This case was investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and was prosecuted for the government by Assistant United States Attorney Greg Gloff.
