A 63-year-old Marrero woman who was shot by Jefferson Parish Sheriff’s Office deputies after a tense standoff in a Dollar General parking lot has pleaded guilty to four counts of aggravated assault of a police officer. Her plea, entered Thursday, wraps up the criminal case stemming from a May 28, 2025 confrontation that left her wounded and triggered both a criminal prosecution and an internal review.
Plea and sentence
According to NOLA, court records show Paige Robin pleaded guilty to four counts of aggravated assault of a police officer. Judge Danyelle Taylor sentenced her to five years in prison, suspending four of those years and ordering five years of active probation after her release. Robin will receive credit for time already served, and filings note that each count carried a maximum penalty of 10 years.
How the standoff unfolded
Local reporting and sheriff’s officials say deputies were looking for Robin after getting a call that a woman had pointed a gun at a marked JPSO patrol unit outside a Walmart on Lapalco Boulevard. Investigators later found a 2001 Isuzu SUV in the 7300 block of Westbank Expressway outside a Dollar General, where, according to deputies, the driver pointed a weapon at them before two deputies opened fire and hit her multiple times, as reported by FOX8. Body-worn camera footage and store surveillance video captured the encounter, and deputies provided aid at the scene before medics took her to a hospital.
Replica weapon and video
Investigators later recovered what they described as an air pistol that had been altered to resemble a real handgun, according to WDSU. Video of the confrontation spread online as multiple witnesses recorded the incident from nearby, giving investigators several vantage points to review. WDSU reported that deputies applied a tourniquet and rendered immediate aid before EMS arrived.
Mental-health notes in court filings
Court records reviewed by NOLA state that Robin has an extensive history of mental illness, a detail referenced in the filings and reflected in aspects of the judge’s decision. The documents confirm she will receive credit for the time she has already spent in custody and that the suspended part of her sentence, along with the five years of probation, will govern her eventual release and supervision. While the plea ends the criminal case, it leaves ongoing questions about how officers handle replica firearms and encounters involving people in crisis.
What comes next
Neighbors and shoppers told WDSU the shooting was frightening and rattled people who frequent the store. Court paperwork shows Robin will serve the remaining portion of her sentence with credit for time served, then begin the period of active probation ordered by the judge. The case highlights the difficult intersection of public-safety decisions, replica weapons and mental-health emergencies on the West Bank.
