CONCORD – A Keene man pleaded guilty in federal court to robbing the Service Credit Union on Winchester Street in Keene, New Hampshire, U.S. Attorney Jane E. Young announces.
Ethan Clark, 31, pleaded guilty to bank robbery. U.S. District Court Judge Joseph Laplante scheduled sentencing for September 7, 2023. Clark was charged on May 10, 2023.
On November 28, 2022, Clark gave a bank teller at the Service Credit Union in Keene a note demanding money, stealing more than $4,700. Surveillance footage shows that Clark left the bank and walked to a van he stole from his former employer. Later that day, Clark was seen driving the van in Lawrence, Massachusetts. When law enforcement searched the vehicle, they found a note consistent with the robbery note given to the teller.
The charging statute provides a sentence of no greater than 20 years in prison, 3 years of supervised release, a fine of $250,000 and restitution. Sentences are imposed by a federal district court judge based upon the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and statutes which govern the determination of a sentence in a criminal case.
The FBI led the investigation. Valuable assistance was provided by the Keene Police Department and the Lawrence Police Department. Assistant U.S. Attorney Matthew Hunter is prosecuting the case.
