Two men were sentenced for an armed robbery of more than a quarter-million dollars from New York’s famed Aqueduct Racetrack, in a heist that echoed a fictional crime from an Stanley Kubrick film
, in a heist that echoed a fictional crime from an Stanley Kubrick film.
Lafayette Morrison and Lamel Miller, both of Queens, were sentenced Thursday to 90 and 108 months in prison, respectively. In Oct. 2022, Morrison was convicted on robbery and conspiracy counts and both were convicted on a weapons count. Miller had previously pleaded guilty to the robbery.
The heist brought to mind Kubrick’s 1956 film “The Killing,” in which a group of criminals, including a racetrack betting window teller, successfully steal $2 million. The plan eventually falls apart. “These sentences are the finale to the armed robbery that played out like a Hollywood movie heist,” Breon Peace, U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of New York, said in a statement."Miller and Morrison made the wrong bet in robbing the Aqueduct Racetrack and have been justly punished for their violent crimes."
