A Watertown man has been sentenced to serve 92 months in prison for possessing a firearm as a convicted felon, according to authorities.
Corey Daniels, 35, was sentenced to serve 7 years and 8 months in prison after pleading guilty to the charge, announced United States Attorney Richard S. Hartunian.
In connection with his guilty plea, Daniels admitted to possessing a stolen 40-caliber, semiautomatic pistol after he had been convicted of felony drug charges.
Daniels is currently serving a 4-and-a-half-year sentence on a 2016 drug trafficking conviction. His sentence on the federal gun charge will begin to run only after he completes his drug charge sentence.
The defendant was also sentenced to a 3-year term of supervised release after he is released from federal prison.
This case was investigated by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms & Explosives, the New York State Police, and the City of Watertown Police Department.
The case was prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Nicolas Commandeur.
Daniels’s co-defendant Loren Woodard, 35, of Calcium, New York, was previously sentenced on October 20, 2016, to serve 84 months in prison for his role in firearms trafficking.
