Tracy Daniels, a 34-year-old felon from Mabelvale, Arkansas, is heading back to prison after an attempted residential burglary in Jacksonville, AR, on December 30, 2024. Daniels, who had just completed a term of supervised release after serving 39 months in federal prison for being a felon in possession of a firearm, was caught by officers with the Jacksonville Police Department. The incident occurred when Daniels kicked in the front door of a residence, but was scared away by the family dog. Daniels was later identified and apprehended at a convenience store in Jacksonville.
Daniels pleaded guilty to being a felon in possession of a firearm on October 20, 2025, and was sentenced to 10 years in federal prison by United States District Judge Lee P. Rudofsky. He was also sentenced to three years’ supervised release. The investigation revealed that Daniels had a history of violent crime, and his latest conviction is a result of his failure to comply with federal laws.
The case was investigated by the Jacksonville Police Department, and the sentence was announced by Jonathan D. Ross, United States Attorney for the Eastern District of Arkansas. The sentence is a significant one, as it highlights the seriousness of the crime and the consequences of being a felon in possession of a firearm.
Daniels’ sentence is a reminder that the federal system has no parole, and those who commit crimes will face the full force of the law. The case also highlights the importance of law enforcement agencies working together to keep communities safe.
