Shortly after his escape, Gilbert robbed eight banks in the Bay Area and one in Elk Grove, between March and June 2015. During three of the robberies, Gilbert pointed a gun at tellers and bank managers. He brandished a knife during two of the robberies, and verbally threatened tellers in four of the robberies. In total, Gilbert took $148,090 from the nine banks.
Along with the prison term, Gilbert was ordered to pay over $148,000 in restitution for the bank robberies.
