Robber Seeks Leniency by Highlighting Victim's Criminal Past

Defense argues convicted preacher's crimes should influence sentencing of man who robbed him during a live-streamed sermon.

Say-Quan Pollack, who robbed Bishop Lamor Whitehead, requests a lighter sentence due to the bishop's own fraud convictions.
Pollack's lawyer claims Whitehead's criminal history is relevant in determining a fair sentence.
Prosecutors condemn the attempt to shift blame, emphasizing the severity of Pollack's armed robbery.
Whitehead, known for his extravagant lifestyle, is currently serving a nine-year prison term for multiple frauds.
Pollack faces up to 20 years but hopes for a reduced sentence based on his plea deal and personal circumstances.
