Russ Turner, a senior analyst at the BrownGreer law firm in Rocketts Landing, and Orran Brown Jr., senior counsel at the firm, were on their lunch break Nov. 16, 2015, when Reid approached them at a gas station on East Main Street and asked for money. When they told him they didn’t have cash, Reid pulled a gun, got into the back seat and forced them to drive to a bank down the street, according to their testimony.
