HONOLULU (AP) — A 19-year-old mastermind of armed robberies at a recycling center and three Oahu banks used part of the nearly $41,000 stolen on dental work, according to an FBI affidavit filed in federal court.
Marcus Kalani Watson, also known as Kiki Seui, pointed a pistol at the chest of a Reynolds Recycling worker and threatened to shoot him after the worker threw cash on the ground during the April 22 robbery, court documents show an informant told the FBI.
Two days later, Watson posted a photo of himself on Facebook holding a large amount of cash, the FBI said.
The worker “was the one acting tough,” Watson told the informant, according to the FBI. “He almost got shot right in the chest . . . I cocked the gun. I aimed it right at him.”
