LONDON, Ky. – A London woman, Jennifer L. Moore, 51, was
sentenced Monday to 168 months in federal prison, by United States District
Judge Robert E. Wier, for carjacking, two armed bank robberies, and brandishing
a firearm during a crime of violence.
According to Moore’s guilty plea agreement, Moore asked
someone for a ride outside of St. Joseph Hospital in London; and during the
ride, she pulled out a loaded handgun and demanded the van. Moore then drove the van to Forcht Bank in
London, disguised herself, and demanded that the tellers provide her all their
$100 dollar bills from their drawers. In
her plea agreement, Moore further admitted to keeping her handgun displayed and
repeatedly telling employees she would kill them. Moore left Forcht Bank with $16,088.00.
Moore then drove the stolen van to Cumberland Valley National
Bank, where she once again demanded the bank tellers’ cash and threatened their
lives. Similarly, Moore motioned to her
loaded firearm while demanding the employees move faster. Moore left CVNB with $14,481.00. Moore brandished and carried a loaded 9mm
semiautomatic pistol throughout the robberies and then led law enforcement on a
brief high speed chase, which ended with her attempt to run on foot.
Moore pled guilty to the offenses on July 1, 2019. Under federal law, she must serve 85 percent
of her prison sentence; and upon her release, she will be under the supervision
of the United States Probation Office for five years.
Robert M. Duncan, Jr., United States Attorney for the
Eastern District of Kentucky; James Robert Brown, Special Agent in Charge, FBI
Louisville Field Division; and Darrel Kilburn, Chief of Police London Police
Department (PD), jointly made the announcement.
The investigation was conducted by the FBI London Office and
London Police Department. The United
States was represented by Assistant U.S. Attorney Jenna Reed.
