A St. Joseph woman will serve 12 years behind bars after taking part in robbing a cell-phone store earlier this year on S. Belt highway.

Shania Harness pleaded guilty to the class a felony count of first-degree robbery in March. At that time, Harness who was pregnant, admitted that she and co-defendant Isaiah Williams, who is the father of her child, robbed the Metro PCS at gunpoint.

“I regret it every single day…It’s not me,” Harness said in court Wednesday in front of Judge Patrick Robb.

“Your statements don’t ring credible,” Robb said. “You only regret this because you got caught.”

Williams was also sentenced last week to serve 16 years for his role in the crime.
