A man who pleaded guilty to several robberies of fast-food restaurants around the Phoenix metropolitan area has been sentenced to four years in prison.
Maricopa County prosecutors say 20-year-old Vincent Nitura of Phoenix was sentenced Wednesday.
Nitura pleaded guilty last month to three counts of armed robbery.
He was arrested in the case in early January along with two other men. The trio was dubbed by police as the "Fast Food Bandits."
Police say the men allegedly were involved in seven robberies from September 2011 to last Nov. 7.

Only 4 years? that means he will be out in 2, He should be in jail for most of his life.

That does seem strange....only four years for Armed Robbery?
Now remember, the crimes were committed at "Fast Food" restaurants...which must now equal "fast time"....... It's pretty safe to assume that our favorite hambuger place from California, was not held up by these guys, otherwise they would have already been "In and Out"......
Now if they had robbed say a Kona Grille, might this judge have sent them to Hawaii?
Just saying......[smile]

For a fast buck try fast food was his mantra. Now it will screaming. From the looks of him he is no prince and should not have survived child birth, but some creatures do slip by.
