Navajo Nation Shooter Cisco Whitehorse Pleads Guilty

A violent crime suspect has been brought to justice in the state of Alabama after pleading guilty to federal firearms offenses. Cisco Whitehorse, 37, of Torreon, New Mexico, faces serious consequences for his actions.

According to the U.S. Department of Justice, Whitehorse pleaded guilty to unlawfully possessing firearms after reportedly using one of them in a shooting and being involved in a series of shooting incidents on the Navajo Nation between July 2024 and September 2025.

Law enforcement agencies have been cracking down on gun violence in the region, and the guilty plea is a significant victory for those efforts. The investigation into Whitehorse’s activities revealed a pattern of reckless behavior that put innocent lives at risk.

“This guilty plea sends a strong message that we will not tolerate gun violence in our communities,” said a DOJ spokesperson. “We will continue to work tirelessly to keep our neighborhoods safe and hold those responsible for these crimes accountable.”

Whitehorse’s guilty plea has significant implications for his future. As part of his agreement, he faces up to 10 years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000. The court is expected to impose a sentence at a later date.
