Two Sentenced to Prison for Violent CU Hold-Ups

TOLEDO, Ohio – Two more members of a violent robbery ring were sentenced Monday to long prison sentences for their role in the series of credit union hold-ups that netted almost $1 million. David Booth and James Wyley are among five ring members convicted of the spree, which terrorized employees and members at area credit unions over a three-year period. The ring was responsible for two robberies at Jeep FCU, and heists at Toledo Public Schools FCU, Champion FCU, one at Standard S&L, and an attempted robbery at Toledo Police FCU, all between 1998 and 2001, but weren’t arrested until earlier this year. Booth, 38, the ringleader, was sentenced to 17 years behind bars; while Wyley, 37, was sentenced to four years.
