A bank robber, a hero and a tale of healing
OCTOBER 28, 2011

Cecile Wehrman Krimm wants to know how and why two brothers could become completely different people.
One brother, Jimmy Krimm, became a notorious serial bank robber who stole from at least 35 banks in a 14-year span. He committed suicide near Fortuna, N.D., just hours after he robbed a bank in Williston.
The other brother, H. Rob Krimm, served his country for 20 years through the U.S. Marines and the U.S. Air Force.
Cecile Wehrman Krimm and Rob Krimm were at the Estevan Public Library on October 22 to promote her true crime novel "The Brothers Krimm: The bank robber and the hero." Wehrman Krimm wrote the book; Rob Krimm and his mother, Charlene, contributed to the story.
Wehrman Krimm first learned of the Krimm family on September 14, 2009. A couple hours after she arrived home from work at the Crosby Journal – where she is the editor – she was told by her mother-in-law that a fugitive bank robber was on the run near Wehrman Krimm's farm after the theft in Williston.
