PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — A suburban Portland man says he was so moved by a documentary exploring the cause of the Great Recession that he decided to rob a bank.
But apparently the film didn't make enough of an impression for the 50-year-old Gresham man to keep the loot.
The Oregonian (Gresham man pleads guilty to bank crime he solved for police in three minutes | OregonLive.com) reports that Raymond Carl Knudson pleaded guilty Monday to sticking up a Bank of America branch in April, a crime he confessed within minutes of committing.
According to court documents, Knudson entered the bank and handed over a robbery note. Then he drove to the Gresham Police Department carrying all $425 of the loot and confessed.
