CF Robber Sentenced

Another culprit in a 2021 Cedar Falls robbery has been sentenced, according to the Waterloo Cedar Falls Courier. Then 17 year old Aubrianna Leinbaugh lured her friend, William Clausen, into an ambush on September 10, 2021. Leinbaugh, Megan Palmer, and Alberto Quinto hid in some bushes before popping out as Clausen arrived. Clausen tried to run but was shot before the trio of burglars took items from his home. Leinbaugh pleaded guilty to one count of Conspiracy and was sentenced to up to 10 years in prison. Prosecutors believe she was the least culpable of the group. Palmer pled guilty to second degree Burglary and Conspiracy and faces up to 20 years in prison when she is sentenced at a later date. Quinto pled guilty to Robbery and Burglary and was sentenced to 35 years in prison but that was suspended to two to five years of probation.
