A Texas bank employee accused of being an accomplice to a violent armed robbery appeared in court Wednesday to face charges.
Shelby Wyse, 25, was arrested and charged with aggravated robbery on Tuesday for her alleged part in a brazen daytime attack on a woman carrying $75,000 in Houston.
The mother-of-one appeared before a judge Wednesday, wearing a Whitney Houston tank top with her hair scraped up in a top knot.
Court documents state that security footage captures Wyse watching the woman while she conducted her business at the bank.
She then allegedly sent a text message to her boyfriend Travoon Johnson, one of the men arrested in the robbery, immediately after the woman left with the large withdrawal.
'Presumably a go signal,' the indictment reads.

“But the attack went terribly wrong”
I really hate it when they say crap like that.
It didn’t go wrong, it was always wrong.
Hang them all.
One of the idiot’s pants are falling down.

“There should be a dollar limit on how much can you can withdraw at any one time.”
Say what?
It’s my money, but I can’t have it? Sounds like a democrat to me.
Exactly how is a check cashing business not honest work?
Yup, they charge a fee, but that is not dishonest.
I have a bank account, and I have friends who use me as a free check cashing service. Many of them have had bank accounts in the past and are not good at managing their money -- lots of overdrafts and the charges associated with that.
For many people the fees a check cashing service charges are less than the inevitable bank charges. They willingly pay the fees.
They charge fees that were considered usury, until congress became for sale and loan shark lobbyists were able to get exemtions granted.
I am not going to pretend along with you that there is nothing filthy about that. You will have to go down that road alone.
In exactly the same way, you won’t get me to endorse gambling businesses either.
Are you aware any transaction over $9999 is required to be reported to the Gov’t?
Yes if it is only one transaction but not if you have 5 checks totaling $20k.
And that’s at a bank, not a check cashing business.
Thanks for posting links. Hope they all get caught and thrown in jail for life.
If you are in the legit business of check cashing service, you would be wise to use an armored cash delivery service or at least not send a single woman individual to carry $75,000 in her purse without a beefy escort.
Yeah but if she had not had a dime dropped on her, no one on the street would have known unless she was being watched, which sounds like she was.
It would be fascinating to hear the ultimate backstory on this. It might make an interesting plot for a movie, with smarter-looking people.
“That is her DL photo, not her mug shot.”
Yeah, I bet she’s not smiling in her booking photo.
Never trust a bank teller making low wages ... That is the moral of this story. Try not to go cheap when dealing big load of cash. $75,000 in 10’s and 20’s requires a very big purse. When I visit the bank to access my safe deposit box, I am seldom alone.
LOL!
It took ONE post. I was going to post on TRAVOON too.
What a name.
That's structuring, and it's a federal crime. (31 U.S.C. Sec. 5324)

As for receiving more than 10,000 cash in separate related transactions, that requires Form 8300, anyway: "if your business receives more than $10,000 in cash from one buyer as a result of a single transaction or two or more related transactions."

Now, since this is a bank, the more appropriate filing might be a SAR. But if she's a known customer and this is a routine transaction for her, it wouldn't trigger a SAR, although the bank would have to keep a record since it's over $3000.

You’d have to make the perps white to get it greenlighted. Although the girl could be “of color” if the plot is changed to make her a victim of extortion or coercion by the white racist bad guys. Better make the injured woman a minority, as well.
Not if it’s five checks from five different entities. This was not a retail business, it was a trucking company and revenue from freight invoices. Now this was over 20 years ago, lots of unscrupulous dealing went on without detection.
