Armed Bank Robberies Plague Oregon Communities
Lorinda Marie Goodin, a 44-year-old resident of Lane County, Oregon, has been sentenced to 22 years and 11 months in prison for committing four armed bank robberies in Multnomah and Lane counties.
According to court documents, Goodin pled guilty to robbing the Bank of the West in Portland on November 8, 2011, the Clackamas County Bank in Gresham on November 14, 2011, and the Pacific Continental Bank in Eugene on August 1 and November 25, 2011.
During the robberies, Goodin wore disguises, brandished what appeared to be a large caliber pistol, and threatened to shoot or kill bank tellers. She was arrested on December 7, 2011, after being seen driving a stolen vehicle in Springfield, Oregon.
Goodin was found to have a large caliber toy pistol in her possession along with various disguises. A subsequent court-authorized search of her residence revealed numerous rounds of .22 caliber ammunition.
Goodin’s guilty pleas, admissions, and agreed sentence recommendation were part of her plea agreement. As part of her overall agreement, Goodin agreed to plead guilty to multiple robberies in Oregon state courts and receive a sentence of up to 18 years in prison for each robbery, to be served concurrently with her federal sentence.
The case was investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco & Firearms, the Portland Police Bureau, Clackamas County Sheriff’s Office, Lane County Sheriff’s Office, Eugene Police Department, Roseburg Police Department, The Dalles Police Department, Milwaukie Police Department, Gresham Police Department, and the Springfield Police Department.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Frank R. Papagni, Jr. prosecuted the case. Goodin’s prior conviction for robbing eight banks in Multnomah, Clackamas, and Marion counties led to her being sentenced as an armed career criminal.
