Youngstown Men Indicted for Unrelated Bank Robberies

Two Youngstown men were indicted for their roles in unrelated bank robberies in Youngstown, said said Steven M. Dettelbach, U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Ohio.

On or about May 29, 2015, Randy L. Jamison, 40, robbed the Huntington Bank at 23 Federal Plaza East, of approximately $2248, according to the indictment.

On or about February 24, 2015, Jayquawn T. Manigault, 22, robbed the Chase Bank at 2900 Market Street, of approximately $12,997, according to the indictment.

If convicted, the defendant’s sentence will be determined by the Court after review of factors unique to this case, including the defendant’s prior criminal record, if any, the defendant’s role in the offense and the characteristics of the violations. In all cases, the sentence will not exceed the statutory maximum and, in most cases, it will be less than the maximum.

The investigation preceding the both indictments was conducted by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Youngstown Police Department. These matters are being prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney David M. Toepfer.

An indictment is only a charge and is not evidence of guilt. A defendant is entitled to a fair trial in which it will be the government’s burden to prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.
