Two other men, Douglas Rex Young and John Russell Remington, also were named in the robbery indictment. The three are accused of using a 9mm semiautomatic pistol to rob Far West Bank in Sandy of $1,713 on Nov. 2, 2001.
Robbery charges carry a penalty of up to 25 years in prison; brandishing a weapon in commission of the crime carries a mandatory sentence of seven years that would be tacked onto any other sentence.
All three men have been convicted of previous felonies and are therefore prohibited from possessing firearms. Violating that prohibition carries a sentence of up to 10 years in prison.
