Javier Vigil Gets 20 Years for Casino Heist | Portland News
Description
Fifty-five-year-old Javier Vigil got a 20-year prison sentence for a brazen casino robbery in Eastern Oregon where he demanded $1 million, took $69K, and opened fire on a tribal police officer—forcing a deadly exchange that also wounded a bystander. Already a felon, he pleaded guilty to robbery, attempted murder, and illegal gun possession after losing big at the tables. Now facing five years of supervised release and over $2K in restitution to the Umatilla Tribe, his crime didn’t just cost him freedom—it nearly cost lives.
