HACKENSACK, N.J. (AP) - September 3, 2009
Max B - whose real name is Charly Wingate - was ordered Thursday
to serve 75 years. He was convicted in June of felony murder, armed
robbery and other offenses in the September 2006 robbery in Fort
Lee.
Co-defendant Kelvin Leerdam received a life term plus 35 years
after jurors found he fatally shot one of the victims.
Prosecutors say the defendants and Wingate's ex-girlfriend - who
took a plea deal and testified against them - plotted to rob two
men she had recently met.
Wingate and Leerdam, both from Harlem in New York City, went to
the victims' hotel room and demanded money before Leerdam shot one
of the men.
