Cook
KINGSTON – A Kingston man was sentenced in Ulster County Court to 2 1/3 to seven years in state prison for his conviction of robbing the Key Bank branch in Kingston last summer.
Bradley Cook was sentenced by Judge Donald Williams on Tuesday.
On July 24, 2017 Cook entered the bank dressed in a black hoodie, a baseball hat, black sunglasses, a scarf covering his neck and chin, and wearing latex gloves. He gave a teller a note demanding money and stating, “no tracers, no dye bags, no police, nobody gets hurt.” The teller gave him $699, which he took before fleeing out the rear of the bank.
A photo of the robber taken from security footage was distributed to police and within an hour, Cook was identified by Kingston Police Sgt. Richard Negron.
Cook was apprehended that same day, questioned and confessed to the crime.
