BANGOR, ME—United States Attorney Thomas
E. Delahanty II announced that Paul Garland, 27, of Oakland, was sentenced
today in U.S. District Court in Bangor by Chief Judge John A. Woodcock, Jr. to

Court records reveal that in June 2009,
Garland robbed a teller at knife-point at the Taconnet Federal Credit Union in
Skowhegan, Maine, obtaining $9,147. After the robbery, witnesses observed
Garland flee from the credit union and leave the parking lot on the back of a

Goodwin’s residence where they changed clothes and vehicles.
The investigation was conducted jointly
by the Skowhegan Police Department and the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
