Man Gets 30 Years For Robbery With A Hammer
January 17, 2014
An Escambia County man that was armed with a hammer during the robbery of an ATM is headed to prison.
Everly Scott Lippwe, 22, was convicted Thursday by an Escambia County Jury of attempted robbery with a weapon while wearing a mask. Following the verdict, Circuit Judge Linda Nobles sentenced Lippwe to 30 years in state prison.
On April 13, 2012, at the Circle K located on Gulf Beach Highway, Darrell Wickson was working in the back of the store when he heard a loud noise up front. When he went out front to see what caused the noise he saw Lippwe and his co-defendant, Joseph Cameron, enter the store wearing hooded sweatshirts, their faces covered with masks and both armed with hammers.
They ordered Wickson to the back of the store where he was forced to lie on the ground while Lippwe attempted to break into the ATM machine. After the failed attempt, both defendants fled the store. Cameron was later found and confessed to the robbery. He also stated that Everly Lippwe was the second robber.
Lippwe was previously sentenced in Santa Rosa County to 40 years in prison on his conviction of multiple counts of burglary, theft and dealing in stolen property. The sentence imposed by Judge Nobles will run consecutive to the 40 years state prison sentence he is currently serving.

Jeremy,
The mask shows he went into the matter with the intention of doing an evil act.
A deadly weapon is a deadly weapon; he put his covetousness ahead of the lives of others.
His drug dealing showed further disregard for law and public safety.
His demeanor befor the judge comes into play.
Other criminal acts showed general disregard for law and public safety.
Maybe some others should get harsher sentences, but there is little reason to think he should get a lighter one. Concurrent sentences say the assorted crimes don’t count since the punishment is unchanged after the first. Consecutive sentences mean each crime deserves to be punished.
Moral of this story? Don’t bug the judge in the first place.
David for better people
Rapist and Dui Manslaughters get only 15 years. This guy gets 70 without raping or killing anyone. Got it.
I so agree with you Molino Mom, Molesters and Rapist should get similar sentences since they don’t get the death penalty like they should.
First of all, I do not know either one of these defendants. But I am truly amazed at how warped our justice system is. While robbery is no “petty crime”, how does this man get such a long prison term, yet murderers and child molesters get less than half this time – IF any at all? Our justice system is ridiculous!
Wow! 70 years for pure stupidity. At least he won’t be around to steal things from us anymore!
Now maybe he can use that hammer to break big rock into little ones in prison. Good riddance
