Hubbard evaluation hints at harsher sentence if proven
Hubbard faces possible tougher sentencing on other offenses as jurors hear his admissions may be used by the judge. He was arrested in January 1994 for burglarizing the Tic Toc Lounge in Cedar Rapids and has been imprisoned since. In November he pleaded guilty to federal charges including stealing an ATM, possessing a felon firearm, and possessing a stolen felon firearm. Nicholson pled innocent to ATM theft. the pair allegedly stole more than $19,000. They dumped the ATM in a pond near Hubbard’s apartment after concealing cameras. Testimony describes their plan from West Virginia to Cedar Rapids, with surveillance cameras masked by glued newspaper. They reportedly opened the safe with a borrowed cutting torch and spent about $5,000 each on crack. Defense argues Hubbard’s habitual dishonesty and probation breaches undermine his credibility. The trial continues.
