BALTIMORE, MD—U.S. District Judge William D. Quarles, Jr. sentenced Frederick McMillan, age 39, of Baltimore, who was previously convicted in federal court of bank robbery, today to 151 months in prison followed by three years of supervised release for bank robbery.
The sentence was announced by United States Attorney for the District of Maryland Rod J. Rosenstein; Special Agent in Charge Richard A. McFeely of the Federal Bureau of Investigation; Baltimore City State’s Attorney Patricia C. Jessamy; and Baltimore Police Commissioner Frederick H. Bealefeld, III.
According to McMillan’s plea agreement, from July 2 to 27, 2009, McMillan demanded money on 10 occasions from bank tellers at M&T Bank, Bank of America, Wachovia Bank, Suntrust Bank, Citibank, and First Mariner Bank, all located in Baltimore. McMillan threatened to shoot one teller and claimed in seven of his demand notes that he had a gun. McMillan stole a total of $23,956. On July 27, 2009 at 11:30 a.m., McMillan entered Citibank, located at 6 Saint Paul Street, and fled without any money after the teller pulled an alarm and walked away. At 11:36 a.m. that same day, McMillan entered First Mariner Bank, located at 300 North Charles St., where he stole money.
Mr. Rosenstein commended Assistant U.S. Attorney Judson T. Mihok, who prosecuted the case.
