“How much do you sell Mercedes?”

In sentencing, Judge Avik Mukherjee said Whitfield had 75 sentences for 135 offenses.

He added: “All three robberies were all planned and the cars, I am satisfied, were stolen to order in order to sell them in the very near future.

“You involve yourself in an organized criminal group and immerse yourself in a situation where others know they can involve you.
