Jordan Lee Davis, a 36-year-old felon from Port Neches, Texas, was caught with a loaded revolver on January 1, 2025, during a police investigation into a possible assault at his residence. As a previously convicted felon in Jefferson County, Davis is prohibited from owning or possessing firearms. The incident led to his arrest and subsequent guilty plea for being a felon in possession of a firearm. On June 22, 2026, Davis was sentenced to 46 months in federal prison by U.S. District Judge Michael Truncale.
The case was part of Operation Take Back America, a nationwide initiative aimed at combating violent crime, illegal immigration, and transnational criminal organizations. The investigation involved the Port Neches Police Department, the Jefferson County District Attorney’s Office, and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives.
Davis’s sentence serves as a reminder of the consequences of violating federal firearms laws. As a convicted felon, he was well aware of the restrictions on his ability to possess firearms, yet he chose to disregard those restrictions. The successful prosecution of this case is a testament to the collaborative efforts of law enforcement agencies in combating violent crime and protecting communities.
The prosecution was handled by Assistant U.S. Attorneys John B. Ross and Jonathan Lee. The case highlights the importance of cooperation between local, state, and federal law enforcement agencies in addressing the complex issues surrounding firearms violations and violent crime.
