Robbery In The First Degree

Unlawful Imprisonment

In this case, while holding the victim at gunpoint in a Redmond hotel room, the defendants demanded that the victim electronically transfer funds or she would be shot. They also threatened to shoot her if she tried to leave. Luckily, the victim was able to text a friend who then contacted law enforcement. When officers arrived at the hotel room, they found a large amount of cash that the victim identified as “fake” currency and a loaded handgun with no serial number. The victim told officers she was scared she would be shot if she was not compliant or if she tried to leave the hotel room.” King County Prosecutors requested be set at $300,000 and $200,000, for each defendant respectively, based on a belief that the defendants are likely to commit another violent offense.
