'Milli Vanilli' Bandit Found Guilty

DENVER (CBS4)- One of two men accused in a series of armed robberies that occurred in 2013 was found guilty on Tuesday.

The men were dubbed the "Milli Vanilli" bandits because of the wigs they wore in some of the robberies.

Jeremy Ervin was found guilty of two counts of aggravated robbery and two counts of violent crime.

Ervin and his brother, Derrick Ervin, were accused of robbing more than a dozen businesses beginning Nov. 9, 2013.

Derrick, 33, pleaded guilty earlier and has been sentenced to 10 years in the Colorado Department of Corrections.

Jeremy, 35, remains in custody. He is scheduled to appear in Denver District Court in May for a hearing on two counts of being a habitual criminal. Sentencing is scheduled for June 3.
