Former Guard Accused of Robbing Bank

Kelly Murphy, 46, is accused of robbing a Grand Forks bank in March. Murphy had worked at the Grand Forks County Jail. He was fired after authorities learned he had provided a false middle name for a background check.

"We ran a criminal history check on him and everything came back fine," says Bret Burkholder, Grand Forks Co. Jail Administrator. "At that same time, we did take finger prints, and we ran fingerprints on him. They take about a week to get back, to ten days, that`s when we discovered the problem with Mr. Murphy.

Murphy has a criminal record in Colorado that includes harassment, stalking and assault.
