Cordell Cobb, a 24-year-old resident of Waynesboro, has been sentenced to 318 months in federal prison after pleading guilty to ten armed robberies that occurred across Southern Georgia. The robberies spanned from January to June 2023 and involved establishments in Bulloch, Burke, Chatham, Emanuel, Glascock, Jenkins, and Ware Counties, where Cobb brandished a firearm while demanding cash from employees.
