Pre-trial release has been denied for two individuals who allegedly attempted to rob a Lisle convenience store at knifepoint and attempted to rob a woman at a Naperville bank just days ago. Both suspects have been charged with one count of armed robbery and one count of attempted armed robbery. (A Class X felony and a Class 1 felony).
Armed robbery is a serious charge in Illinois that can benefit from strong legal representation. Your attorney may be able to have the charges lowered to a less serious offense through a plea deal, negotiate a lesser sentence, prove you are not guilty of the charges in court, or have the charges dropped because of police error or violations of your Constitutional rights.
