James Morales, a former Army Reservist, stole six M-4 carbines and 10 M-11 handguns from the Lincoln W. Stoddard U.S. Army Reserve Center in Worcester, Massachusetts in November 2015. He tried to use some of those guns to rob banks in Cambridge and Somerville, Massachusetts, after escaping from a facility in Rhode Island. <\/p>\n

Morales was tied to the reserve center theft because, brilliant criminal that he is, he was wearing an ankle bracelet monitoring system – he was out on bail from a child rape beef.<\/p>\n

Morales reached a plea deal with prosecutors, according to the Virginian-Pilot<\/a>;<\/p>\n

According to the plea deal, prosecutors agreed to recommend 14 years in prison for the charges stemming from the gun thefts and bank robbery attempts, and one additional year for the escape. The deal also calls for three years of probation. Morales faced up to 90 years in prison if convicted at trial of all the charges.<\/p>\n

The judge isn’t bound by the prosecution’s recommendations.<\/p>\n

Two people convicted of helping sell the stolen guns already have been sentenced. Tyrone James received nearly five years behind bars, while Ashley Bigsbee received a nearly 2-year sentence.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Maybe he can get the training he sorely needs while he’s behind bars and come out as better criminal after this little slap on his wrist.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
