18 months for armed robbery

In Maryland.

A 17-year-old girl was sentenced to 18 months

in jail today for helping lead a teenage armed robbery spree, allegedly to get money for stylish athletic shoes.
A judge found Tia Moore guilty in July of two counts of

conspiracy to commit armed robbery and one count of attempted armed robbery. In January, she and four other young people took part in the 90-minute crime spree, targeting a fast-food restaurant, a pizza delivery man and an ice-cream shop where two of their Frederick High School classmates worked.
Prosecutors asked for four to 16 years according to state

sentencing guidelines. Instead, Frederick County Circuit Judge Julie Stevenson Solt sentenced Moore to 18 months in the county jail and suspended another 14 and a half years of prison time.

Well, that'll teach HER!
