Scott gets 11 years for game room robbery

By Brad Kellar

Greenville – A prison sentence is handed down in connection to a Hunt County game room robbery.

Following a three day trial, Jackie Lawrence Scott was found guilty by a jury and sentenced to 11 years in prison for the aggravated robbery of the Peach Tree Game Room.

As a deadly weapon was used in the commission of the robbery, Scott will have to spend at least half of his sentenced behind bars before being eligible for parole.

Scott, of Fredericksburg, Texas, was the third person convicted in connection to the game room robbery in December 2008.
