Two Sentenced In String Of Robberies, Including 9 Mile Credit Union
June 27, 2013
Two people have been sentenced for a string of robberies committed in October 2012.
Reginald Augst was sentenced for three robberies to 20 years in state prison, and Heather Menze received nine years in prison for her role in two robberies .
The charges stem from three robberies committed within a four-day period in October 2012. On October 19, 2012, Augst went into the Texaco on Nine Mile Road robbing the clerk with what was later determined to be a BB gun. On October 22, 2012, Augst went into the Cuts by Us on Davis Highway robbed the employee and then forced her in the bathroom until he left. During both of these crimes, Augst was wearing a mask over his face.
Then, on October 23, 2012, Augst went into the Central Credit Union off Nine Mile Road and demanded money from the teller. Augst stated he had a gun and he was able to get away with approximately $3,000. Menze was involved in the planning of these robberies and was the driver of the getaway car, according to prosecutors. Both defendants were caught and arrested on October 26, 2012, at the American Inn and Suites on Highway 29 by Escambia County Sheriff’s deputies.

That’s my father….

So much for gender equality when it comes to committing a crime. He gets 20 but she gets 9? Criminal behavior is not restricted by race, gender, or creed – applicationof the law should be applied to everyone.
Sorry, judge whoever you are, you got this one wrong…..
Look for her next photo (when she is processed at the DOC reception center) and I bet you won’t find that smirk on her face when the reality of nine years of freedom lost is realized.
