 On February 14, 2018, Schriber admitted guilt to Aggravated Robbery
based on a Partially Negotiated Plea Agreement wherein the State agreed
to cap its sentencing recommendation at 8 years of imprisonment. The
matter was scheduled for sentencing hearing on April 25, 2018.
The case arose from a July 19, 2016 911 call from an employee at
Casey’s, 1100 5th Street, Lincoln, Illinois. The employee stated that a
white male wearing a black sleeveless t-shirt with the words “got
crabs?” on the front demanded the employee turn over all the cash from
register while holding his hand under his t-shirt at the waist. The male
held his hand under his shirt in a manner that caused the employee to
believe the male had a gun. Lincoln Police investigated the incident and
were able to identify Nicholas Schriber as a suspect. The Casey’s
employee identified Nicholas Schriber from a photographic line-up.

for jury trial in December 2017 but Schriber, who had posted bail,
failed to appear. A warrant was issued and Schriber later
surrendered himself to the Court on the warrant.
