A Metcalfe County man is facing federal prison time after a sentencing announcement from the U.S. District Attorney’s Office.
According to court documents, 48 year-old Aaron McKinney, of Edmonton, was sentenced to five years and 11 months in federal prison, followed by three years of supervised release, for being a felon in possession of a firearm.
Authorities say McKinney possessed a Springfield Armory (HS Produkt), model XD-45, 45 caliber semiautomatic pistol and ammunition.
McKinney was prohibited from possessing a firearm after being convicted of first-degree possession of a controlled substance, methamphetamine (third or greater offense) in 2021, and manufacturing methamphetamine (first offense) in 2017.
This case was investigated by the ATF Bowling Green Field Office and the Kentucky State Police.
There is no parole in the federal system.
