Texas Man Sentenced to 5-8 Years for Role in Thayne ATM Burglary

In Lincoln County, the final suspect in a Thayne ATM burglary is headed to prison.

According to the Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office and SVI News, Miles Lamar Smith, of Texas, received 5-8 years for his role in the 2025 theft. He must also pay nearly $13,000 dollars in restitution.

His sentence matches those of two other accomplices from Texas who were previously convicted.

Authorities say the three men used a stolen pickup truck, chains and tow hooks to steal cash from a Bank of Star Valley ATM.
