New Orleans, Louisiana – In a brazen attempt to break into an ATM, 19-year-old Brishun Gary and his cohorts nearly got away with a daring heist. But thanks to swift action by law enforcement, the culprits were caught and brought to justice.
Gary, a resident of New Orleans, pled guilty on May 17, 2021 to conspiracy to commit bank larceny, announced U.S. Attorney Duane A. Evans. The maximum term of imprisonment Gary faces is 5 years, along with a $250,000 fine and 3 years of supervised release, and a $100 special assessment.
Gary and his accomplices attempted to break into an ATM located in the drive-through of a Capital One Bank using sledgehammers, crowbars, chains, and a truck on February 5, 2020. And if that wasn’t enough, they made another attempt at an ATM at Hancock Whitney Bank using the same truck, just prior to the heist.
U.S. Attorney Evans praised the work of the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the New Orleans Police Department in investigating this matter. The prosecution of this case is being handled by Assistant U. S. Attorney G. Dall Kammer, Chief of the General Crimes Unit.
The crime was a brazen attempt to break into an ATM, and law enforcement worked tirelessly to bring the perpetrators to justice. Gary’s guilty plea is a significant blow to his accomplices, and we hope that they will also face the consequences of their actions.
Gary is scheduled to be sentenced on September 8, 2021 before the Honorable Susie Morgan. This sentence will be a crucial step in bringing closure to this case and ensuring that the community is safe from such crimes.
With the guilty plea, Gary is facing a significant penalty, including 5 years in prison and a $250,000 fine. This serves as a warning to others who may attempt similar crimes and highlights the importance of law enforcement’s efforts in keeping our community safe.
