\nA 37 year-old Glasgow man was sentenced to nearly five years in federal prison last week for crimes involving illegal possession of a firearm.<\/p>\n
Dwayne T. Smith received a sentence of four years and nine months in prison, followed by three years of supervised release, because he had a pistol in his possession as a convicted felon, according to information released Tuesday by the Office of the U.S. Attorney for the Western District of Kentucky.<\/p>\n
Smith was convicted in Barren County Circuit Court on June 25, 2019, of possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, receiving stolen property and possession of synthetic drugs\u2013second or subsequent.<\/p>\n
He was also found guilty a second time October 7, 2019, for possession of a firearm by a convicted felon.<\/p>\n
Units from the ATF office in Louisville, Kentucky State Police and Glasgow Police helped investigate the case.<\/p>\n
Assistant U.S. Attorneys Mark J. Yurchisin II and R. Nicholas Rabold, of the U.S. Attorney\u2019s Bowling Green Branch Office, prosecuted the case.<\/p>\n
This case is part of Project Safe Neighborhoods (PSN), a program bringing together all levels of law enforcement and the communities they serve to reduce violent crime and gun violence, and to make neighborhoods safer for everyone.<\/p>\n
Smith will not be eligible for parole because the federal justice system does not offer it.
