Man who pulled **** after Burger King worker wouldn’t take drugs for payment gets 143 years in prison

DENVER (AP) — A man who was convicted of pointing a **** at Burger King drive-thru worker who wouldn’t accept drugs for payment and later ********* at other people elsewhere the same night has been sentenced to 143 years in prison.

Prosecutors who announced the sentence Thursday said the drive-thru incident was the beginning of a series of ******* Eugene Robertson carried out in the Denver suburb of Aurora on Oct. 17, 2022. No one was wounded.

In April, a jury found Robertson guilty of 17 *******, including eight counts of attempted *******. The sentences for many of the ******* were stacked on top of each other, leading to a long sentence. Robertson, 40, had faced a maximum sentence of more than 400 years when he was sentenced Aug. 9.

“We consider this 143-year sentence justice for the multiple victims he put in ***** that night. Jurors recognized the severity of the ******* this defendant committed. We believe the judge imposed an appropriate sentence,” Eric Ross, a spokesperson for 18th Judicial District Attorney John Kellner, said Friday.

After Robertson pointed the **** at the drive-thru worker, prosecutors said he walked into a convenience store across the street and pointed a **** at the head of a clerk. When Robertson saw there was a surveillance video camera system there, he shot at the screen and left, then shot toward two people outside in the parking lot, Kellner’s office said.

that a witness at the convenience store store told police there seemed to be “something off” about Robertson and that he was “talking about ****” and carrying a ****** with a purple cover.

Later that night, a woman who was friends with Robertson called 911 to report that he had fired shots after she refused to open the door of her apartment, where she was with several people, prosecutors said.

Police spotted Robertson at the woman’s apartment complex. He hid behind some bushes before being arrested, prosecutors said.
