Le’Var Brown, a 33-year-old man from Sharon, Pennsylvania, has been sentenced to 57 months in prison for committing firearm and ammunition crimes, according to a recent sentencing in the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania.
Brown was convicted of possessing three guns, including a loaded Romarm/Cugir Mini Draco semi-automatic pistol, and corresponding ammunition at his residence in Sharon, Pennsylvania, and at his girlfriend’s residence in Sharon.
The guns Brown possessed included a loaded Romarm/Cugir Mini Draco semi-automatic pistol, and corresponding ammunition. Brown’s conviction comes after he was caught with the guns on October 1, 2021.
Brown’s crimes are a serious case of firearm and ammunition possession, highlighting the dangers of unchecked gun ownership. Brown’s possession of a loaded semi-automatic pistol poses a significant threat to public safety.
Assistant United States Attorney Craig W. Haller prosecuted this case on behalf of the United States. The investigation was conducted by the Pennsylvania Attorney General’s Office, the Mercer County Drug Task Force, the Drug Enforcement Administration, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
This case is part of Project Safe Neighborhoods (PSN), a program that brings together all levels of law enforcement and the communities they serve to reduce violent crime and gun violence. PSN aims to foster trust and legitimacy in communities, support prevention organizations, set strategic enforcement priorities, and measure results.
Brown’s sentence is a result of his prior convictions, including a 2018 felony heroin and crack trafficking crime and additional prior crimes. His supervised release will begin after serving the 57-month prison sentence, lasting for three years.
The Western District of Pennsylvania takes serious cases like Brown’s very seriously. Cases involving gun possession and ammunition crimes are a priority for the court system, and Brown’s sentence sends a clear message to those who would engage in similar behavior.
