Hendricks, Hillsboro, MO, was indicted by a federal grand jury on one felony count of robbery of a federally-insured institution. He appeared for arraignment in federal court this morning.
If convicted, this charge carries a maximum penalty of 20 years in prison and/or fines up to $250,000. In determining the actual sentences, a Judge is required to consider the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines, which provide recommended sentencing ranges.
