CLEVELAND, Ohio — A bank robber captured after he posted a picture of himself with stolen cash on Instagram will spend nearly 12 years in federal prison.
Rodney Johnson Jr., 22, and Laron Lloyd, were charged in the Dec. 7, 2013 robbery of the Fifth Third Bank in the 12000 block of Cedar Road in Cleveland Heights.
Johnson brandished a silver revolver and the pair made off with $6,701 in cash, according to an affidavit.
Johnson was arrested four days later after the FBI and Johnson’s probation officer in a separate case matched an Instagram photo with bank surveillance photos.
Johnson confessed to his part in the robbery during an interview. He pleaded guilty in September to armed bank robbery and brandishing a firearm

Oops. Poor Rodney. Do these narc judges and FBI agents not know the point of Instagram? It’s to post normal everyday pictures, add a filter to make the picture look cooler than it really is, add a couple hashtags, add a couple 
emojis, and voila you’re getting at least 50 likes.
Add in the fact these bros are wearing suits, ski masks, and throwing hunnids in the air, and one is holding a gun… I almost wish the judge would throw out all the charges. I mean, that’s just a fantastic Instagram pic. It looks like it could be the cover of a G-Unit album. If it showed up on my feed, I’m 100% giving it a double tap.
