Texas bank robber faces Up to Life in Prison 1/4/13

Associated Press

DALLAS - A co-conspirator of a bank robber serving life in prison for
killing a North Texas armored car guard has pleaded guilty in a string of 2009
holdups.

Prosecutors in Dallas say 50-year-old Jesus Sandoval on Thursday pleaded
guilty to conspiracy to commit bank robbery, to two counts of using, carrying,
and brandishing a firearm and to possessing a firearm to further a violent
crime.

Sandoval faces up to life in prison when he's sentenced in May for three
robberies with 28-year-old Enrique Lopez. Both were arrested on Oct. 3, 2009, in
suburban Dallas.

Lopez last year pleaded guilty to five robberies and to killing Brinks
Security guard Cresencio Borquez during a September 2009 holdup in Dallas. He
was sentenced to two consecutive life terms plus 85 years in prison.
