Sodus woman pleads guilty to Arson

February 8, 2025
/ by WayneTimes.com

A jury trial for Pamela A. Robinson, age 48, was set to begin on Monday (2/3) in Wayne County Court. Prior to the bench trail starting, Robinson plead guilty to Arson in the Third Degree: Intentional Damage. 

The case involved Robinson’s purchase of a vehicle from the Peake dealership in Sodus in 2023. She learned she could buy renters’ insurance along with the vehicle insurance  that the dealership financial services department offered.

Initially she signed up for a $50,000 renter’s insurance policy, only to soon up it to $100,000 and a short time later up to $200,000 in coverage.

At the time of obtaining the renters’ insurance, Robinson resided at the low-end Nakissa Drive apartments in the Village of Sodus.

Just before the fire, witnesses noticed Robinson moved many of her belongings into her vehicle, along with her fish tank and fish.

Insurance adjusters became suspicious; the New York State Department of Financial Services was contacted and, by May 18, 2023, the case was turned over to State Police Investigators out of Williamson.

Following the information supplied and their own investigation, Robinson was indicted by a Wayne County Grand Jury.

She was arrested on Friday, March 8, 2024 for Felony Arson in the Third Degree and Felony Insurance Fraud in the Second Degree - an Amount Exceeding $50,000.

Her sentencing date was set for March 18th, where she could face up to two to six years in state prison.
