Twin YouTubers Alan and Alex Stokes have pleaded guilty to misdemeanor false imprisonment and reporting false emergencies in connection to a series of fake bank robbery pranks orchestrated back in October 2019.
According to a press release from the District Attorney s Office of Orange County, California, the popular content creators each faced a maximum sentence of five years in jail if convicted on all counts. The guilty pleas were in exchange for a judge reducing the felony false imprisonment charge to a misdemeanor, the release states, adding that prosecutors objected on the record and in a trial brief to the court’s offer to reduce the felony charge to a misdemeanor.
