Three Florida siblings involved in a cross-country crime spree were sentenced by a federal judge Monday, Dec. 17, 2012, to more than 35 years in jail. Senior Judge Hugh Lawson sentenced Ryan Dougherty, Lee Grace Dougherty and Dylan Dougherty Stanley to identical sentences for their role in the August 2011 robbery of a South Georgia bank. Their spree began in Florida and ended in a shootout in Colorado. The three have already pleaded guilty to Colorado charges stemming from their capture in August 2011. Ryan Dougherty got 18 years, Lee Grace Dougherty received 24 years and Dylan Dougherty Stanley got 32 years for those charges. They still face charges in Florida, where they are accused of shooting at an officer during a high-speed chase.
