A 44-year-old Pasadena man has been convicted of 28 criminal counts in connection with a series of armed robberies at six fast-food outlets and franchise restaurants in the San Gabriel


Valley during 1986. Doyle Ray Jones, who faces sentencing June 30, could receive more than 40 years in prison for the robberies in which he is believed to have netted between $100,000 and


$150,000, authorities said. Jones, who was arrested in January, 1988, is one of eight inmates named as plaintiffs in a current American Civil Liberties Union lawsuit that accuses the


county’s Superior Court judges of infringing on prisoners’ rights to a speedy trial. He was convicted Friday by a jury that took less than a day to deliberate following a three-week trial.
