March 24, 2010 - KANSAS CITY, KN—Isha Jackson, 34, Leavenworth, Kan., has been sentenced to 142 months in federal prison for robbing a bank in Lenexa, Kan., U.S. Attorney Lanny Welch said today.
Jackson pleaded guilty to one count of armed bank robbery and one count of brandishing a firearm during the robbery. According to court documents, on Sept. 21, 2009, Jackson entered Wachovia Bank at 12000 West 95th in Lenexa, Kan., pointed a Smith & Wesson .38 Special revolver at tellers and demanded money.
