## Resource

A Connecticut woman is headed to federal prison for her role in a brutal string of armed robberies—scouting locations and feeding intel to her accomplice, Lonny Cross, who terrorized stores with knives and fake guns, stealing over $58,000 and even threatening a 12-year-old. Barbera, 44, got a two-year sentence after pleading guilty to tampering with evidence, while Cross, already sentenced to 15 years, was linked to 37 crimes. Their spree in fall 2022 shocked communities and ended with both facing the full weight of justice. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
