LEBANON, Ohio -- The woman dubbed the "granny robber" pled guilty to robbing three banks in court today.

Barbara Joly, 68, admitted to robbing banks in Franklin, Lebanon, and Mason over a period of six months.  The judge told Joly she will likely serve time in prison when she is sentenced in February.

According to Warren County Prosecutor Rachel Hutzel, Joly stole a total of $8,168 from the three banks.  Joly pled guilty two weeks ago to robbing the Community National Bank in Middletown in March. 

"Justice was done today," said Hutzel.

According to Butler County prosecutors, she robbed the Middletown bank by passing a note to teller that read, "You are being watched by a gun, give me money."

The three banks in Warren bounty were reportedly robbed in a similar manner.
