Three plead guilty in Super Bowl Sunday meth ingredient heist

Three men involved in a heist timed to coincide with Super Bowl XLI pleaded guilty Monday to charges that they conspired to make and distribute meth between June 2006 and May 2, 2009.

James Robert Everson Jr. (known to his friends as “Bimbo”), Micah Lee Boley and Eugene Edward Dove all pleaded guilty in federal court (they also missed a great game between the Bears and Colts). 

Last May, I called this case the Ocean’s 11 of meth robberies, and I stick by it.

Everson admitted that he and Shawn Anthony Clinkenbeard sneaked into the Sanofi-Aventis U.S.

pharmaceutical manufacturing facility in Kansas City, Missouri, and hid out until Super Bowl Sunday in 2007. They sprung into action after kickoff.

The 42-year-old Everson took a

female security guard hostage at gunpoint, handcuffed her and stole a 110-pound drum of pseudophedrine

powder.
