Regarding his past robberies:
Michael A. Hall Jr. was no noob when it came to robbing GameStop stores. He was caught doing it 10 years ago and served time in prison.
Last year, he decided to try his luck again, but the result was the same.

The 35-year-old Glassboro man has pleaded guilty to robbing eight GameStop locations in New Jersey and Pennsylvania during a two-month spree last year.
He faces more than 27 years in prison when he's sentenced Aug. 15.
Department of Corrections records indicate Hall was released from prison in March 2017. Months later, he picked up where he left off.

On Dec. 20 of last year, it was game over once again for Hall.
He was arrested a day after the Folsom job and authorities seized $5,600 in cash, handguns, ammunition and enough video games and gaming gear to open his own store.
Titles recovered included Grand Theft Auto 5, Assassins Creed, Minecraft and Rainbow Six Siege.

Under the plea agreement, Hall has agreed to make restitution to his victims.
He is currently jailed at Burlington County Detention Center while he awaits sentencing.
Regarding his past robberies:
In 2008, police arrested Hall and a cousin on charges that they robbed eight South Jersey stores, including six GameStops and two convenience stores, at gunpoint, making off with thousands of dollars in games and equipment.
When it came to the 2008 GameStop robberies, the heists were well-planned, authorities said.
"They would pick out certain games they wanted," said Evesham Detective Sgt. David Covely. "They would take the cell phones, the store phones ... It wasn't a spur of the moment thing. It was planned. They knew what they wanted."
The robberies became more brazen, Covely said at the time, with some committed during daylight hours. A victim was pistol-whipped during one incident, he said.
With assistance from the U.S. Marshal's, the cousins were arrested in March 2008.
