Bank Robber Mom Out On $25,000 Bail
November 20, 2009What have we come to in a world where a mother of five children will resort to guerrilla tactics and air-headed iron will just to make a living? Maybe the money is good? At any rate, (bank rate that is), Roxanne Pennock, age 37 pleaded not guilty to a Riverside County Court Judge yesterday on charges she robbed two Temecula banks on October 22nd and again on November 6th.
She’s also suspected of holding up two more banks in Poway which she’s not officially been charged for, yet. Pennock was arrested in Temecula on November 6th, just minutes after a woman robbied Temecula Chase Bank. She was later stopped in a van that witnesses identified at the crime scene.
Guilty or not, Pennock is out of jail on a $25,000 bail. Her lawyer, declined to comment after she was ordered back to court on December 17th. Officials have some further investigations to do. The FBI is now on the case along with the San Diego County Sheriff’s Department.
To top it all off, Roxanne Pennock lives in Poway. What a coincidence that Riverside authorities uncovered evidence from the robbery of the Chase bank in, you got it… her hometown, Poway. The van was recovered with evidence which links Ms. Pennock to the downright dastardly deeds.
Further, she lives only minutes from a San Diego National Bank on Poway Road which was robbed at semi-automatic gunpoint by a person wearing a clown mask and hooded sweat shirt. A second robbery took place at a U.S. Bank in Poway where it was robbed by a person “matching the description of the previous suspect.” Sounds suspicious all right. I wonder if she ever saw “Mad Money…” the movie, that is.
