In a brazen case of conspiracy to commit robbery affecting interstate commerce, Rodrick D. Gant, a 23-year-old resident of Billings, Montana, has been handed a harsh sentence by Chief U.S. District Judge Richard F. Cebull.
On February 13, 2013, Gant appeared before Judge Cebull, who levied a term of 106 months in prison, along with a special assessment of $300 and a supervised release of 5 years.
Gant was found guilty of conspiracy to commit robbery affecting interstate commerce, possession of a firearm in furtherance of a crime of violence, and possession of a firearm by a person convicted of domestic abuse following a federal district court trial.
The investigation was conducted by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, who worked tirelessly to bring Gant to justice.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Marcia K. Hurd prosecuted the case for the United States, ensuring that Gant faced the full force of the law for his crimes.
In the federal system, there is no parole, so Gant will likely serve the entirety of his sentence. However, he may be eligible for a sentence reduction of up to 15% for good behavior.
Gant’s crimes will have a lasting impact on the community, and his sentence serves as a reminder that those who engage in violent and criminal behavior will be held accountable.
