Kansas City man charged for meth trafficking and firearms possession in two separate cases.
Daroy L. Thomas, 25, of Kansas City, Mo., was charged in a four-count indictment returned under seal by a federal grand jury in Kansas City, Mo., on Nov. 6, 2024.
In a separate and unrelated case, Thomas and Shannon J. Price, 29, of Kansas City, Kan., were charged in a two-count indictment returned under seal by a federal grand jury in Kansas City, Mo., on Nov. 6, 2024.
The first indictment charges Thomas with one count of conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine, one count of possessing methamphetamine with the intent to distribute, one count of possessing firearms in relation to a drug-trafficking crime, and one count of being a felon in possession of firearms.
Under federal law, it is illegal for anyone who has been convicted of a felony to be in possession of any firearm or ammunition. Thomas has prior felony convictions for robbery and armed robbery.
The second indictment charges Thomas and Price with one count each of being a felon in possession of a firearm. Thomas and Price each allegedly were in possession of Glock pistols on July 28, 2023.
Price has prior felony convictions for tampering with a motor vehicle and resisting arrest.
The charges contained in these indictments are simply accusations, and not evidence of guilt. Evidence supporting the charges must be presented to a federal trial jury, whose duty is to determine guilt or innocence.
Both of these cases are being prosecuted by Sarah J. Rasalam and Megan A. Baker.
