In a tiny voice, Amanda D. Murphy Snyder pleaded guilty Tuesday to aiding and abetting her boyfriend in a robbery last summer at a Pizza Hut in Cleveland, Tenn.
Snyder is to be sentenced in U.S. District Court on Jan. 24, said Assistant U.S. Attorney Chris Poole.
Snyder and Jeremiah Wise, 29, led police on a car and foot chase through Cleveland after the robbery that included shots fired at pursuing officers and resulted in the lockdowns of schools in the area.
Snyder told authorities that she and Wise had been traveling around the Southeast for several days, and that she was a missing person in North Carolina.
She said her companion drove to the Pizza Hut, parked, put on a hat and sunglasses and told her to get into the driver’s seat. She said she knew he was going to rob the Pizza Hut, and he came out carrying a “wad” of cash, jumped in the car and told her speed away.
