A Davenport man has been sentenced to prison for a Felon in Possession of a Firearm charge, announced United States Attorney Kevin E. VanderSchel on July 20, 2017.
Devonte Darnell Holston, 22, of Davenport, Iowa, was sentenced by Chief United States District Court Judge John A. Jarvey to 180 months in prison.
Holston was ordered to serve a five-year term of supervised release following his imprisonment and to pay $100 to the Crime Victims’ Fund.
The charges stem from an incident on June 26, 2016, when Davenport Police Officers seized two firearms from a vehicle occupied by Holston.
On March 7, 2017, Holston pleaded guilty and admitted he knowingly possessed the firearms seized from the vehicle.
This matter was investigated by the Davenport Police Department’s Tactical Operations Bureau, Davenport Police Department, and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.
The case was prosecuted by the United States Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Iowa.
