nen Bank were a match. Perkins photo was identified in a photo lineup as the bank robber

When it was determined that the two bank robberies were related, the FBI took the
lead on the case. On July 7, the Citrus County Sheriff s Office assisted the FBI with a search
warrant at Perkinas' Brooksville. Perkins, at which time she was arrested for the Plant City
