Felons with guns have no place in our society, and Ilderaldo Deandre Lima-Mosley is the latest example of why.
Lima-Mosley, a 32-year-old convicted felon, has been sentenced to 2 years in federal prison for being a felon in possession of a firearm. The crime, which carries a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison, is a serious offense that can have devastating consequences for our community.
On May 2020, Lima-Mosley met an individual at a Dallas area tobacco shop to sell a .380 pistol and several magazines containing ammunition for $740. This case was investigated by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. Assistant U.S. Attorney Phelesa Guy prosecuted this case.
The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) worked tirelessly to crack this case, and their efforts are a testament to the dedication of law enforcement in our community. We owe a debt of gratitude to the brave men and women who put their lives on the line every day to keep us safe.
Lima-Mosley’s sentence is a reminder that felons with guns will be caught and prosecuted. We will not tolerate this kind of reckless behavior in our community, and we will do everything in our power to keep our streets safe.
