Luis Osorio, Bank Robbery, New York 2014

Rochester Man Sentenced For Bank Robbery

A 27-year-old Rochester man was sentenced to 63 months in prison for his role in a bank robbery.

Luis Osorio was charged in June 2014 along with his younger brother Abraham Osorio, Laquan Ealey, and Jeffrey Steadman-Loyd for their involvement in the robbery of the Chase Bank located at 2900 Dewey Avenue in Rochester.

On June 7, 2014, co-defendants Abraham Osorio and Laquan Ealey entered the bank and walked up to a teller station. Ealey was wearing a baseball cap, gloves, and black hair extensions. Abraham Osorio had a red baseball cap and sunglasses. Ealey passed a note to the teller that stated, ‘Give me all the money or everyone dies in here.’ Ealey then told the teller, ‘Give me all your money or everyone here will die, I have a gun.’ The teller handed Ealey an amount of money and the defendants exited the bank, driving away in a 2002 blue Ford Explorer.

A week later, on June 14, 2014, Luis Osorio, Abraham Osorio, Laquan Ealey, and Jeffrey Steadman-Loyd attempted to rob the Citizens Bank at 230 Waring Road in Rochester. Luis Osorio and Jeffery Steadman-Loyd were observed by police in the blue Ford Explorer with Abraham Osorio and Laquan Ealey. The four men initially drove by the bank then stopped several blocks away, at which time Luis Osorio was observed to exit the Explorer with a screwdriver in hand and replace the vehicle’s two license plates with fake plates.

In addition to his 63 months in prison, Luis Osorio was ordered to pay restitution to Chase Bank in the amount of $3,278. The three other defendants were also convicted. Laquan Ealey was sentenced to 66 months in prison and Jeffrey Steadman-Loyd 24 months in prison. Abraham Osorio is awaiting sentencing.

The sentencing is the culmination of a joint investigation on the part of the Greece Police Department, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the New York State Police, the United States Marshals Service, and the Rochester Police Department.
