Tulsa Man Convicted of Attempting to Rob Miami Bank
A Federal jury has convicted Francis Harry Dishmon, 51, of Tulsa, of attempted robbery of the IBC Bank in Miami, Oklahoma, announced United States Attorney Danny C. Williams Sr. for the Northern District of Oklahoma.
The incident occurred on August 28, 2013, when Dishmon attempted to rob the IBC Bank in Miami. However, the bank was not actually robbed, and the jury convicted him of the attempted crime.
The charging statute provides a statutory maximum penalty of 20 years in prison and a $250,000 fine for attempted bank robbery.
Dishmon was tried before United States District Judge John E. Dowdell and will be sentenced on the attempted robbery conviction on March 9, 2015.
The Government alleged in Count 2 of the Indictment that after attempting to rob the IBC Bank, Dishmon caused a deadly crash while attempting to avoid law enforcement apprehension. However, the jury could not reach a verdict on Count 2 and it will be retried at a later date.
The case was investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorneys Jan Reincke and Gary L. Davis II on behalf of the United States.
United States District Chief Judge Gregory K. Frizzell received the verdict in the case, U.S. v. Francis Harry Dishmon.
