中国公民 Jincheng Shi 被裁定协助无证经营枪支罪名成立，最高面临15年监禁
美国司法部佛罗里达州中区联邦检察官办公室2025年12月22日宣布，联邦陪审团裁定中国公民 Jincheng Shi 协助无证经营枪支、以及以非移民签证入境的外国人身份持有枪支两项罪名成立。Shi 现年28岁，住在佛罗里达州奥西奥拉县 St. Cloud 市，最高面临15年联邦监禁，量刑听证定于2026年3月9日举行。联邦检察官 Gregory W. Kehoe 公布了这一裁定。
庭审证词与证据显示，Shi 于2022年持非移民工作签证入境美国，属于法律禁止持有枪支的人员类别。此后他经营枪支零件生意，在枪展上以及从一处租用的储物单元出售各类枪支零件与配件。同案被告 Victor Lafontaine 与 Jose Maldonado 是他的客户，两人把购得的零件组装成完整枪支，在没有联邦枪支许可证的情况下出售。庭审证据还显示，Lafontaine 曾把枪支卖给包括有重罪前科者在内的禁持枪人员。
2025年2月20日，联邦探员持搜查令搜查 Shi 的住所，查获多支枪支。Shi 于2025年9月3日被起诉，最初与包括 Lafontaine、Maldonado 在内的另外六人同案被控参与一个枪支贩运网络；其余六名同案被告均已认罪，有的已经判刑，有的尚待量刑。
此案由联邦调查局（FBI）与烟酒枪炮及爆炸物管理局（ATF）调查，都市调查局、奥兰治县警长办公室、奥兰多市警察局等多家机构协助，助理联邦检察官 Risha Asokan 负责起诉。案件属于司法部「安全社区计划」的执法行动。
Federal Jury Convicts Chinese National Jincheng Shi of Aiding Unlicensed Firearms Dealing; He Faces Up to 15 Years
The U.S. Attorney's Office for the Middle District of Florida announced on December 22, 2025, that a federal jury has found Jincheng Shi, a national of China, guilty of aiding and abetting unlicensed firearms dealing and of possession of a firearm as an alien admitted to the United States under a nonimmigrant visa. Shi, 28, of St. Cloud in Osceola County, Florida, faces a maximum penalty of 15 years in federal prison, and his sentencing hearing is scheduled for March 9, 2026. U.S. Attorney Gregory W. Kehoe announced the verdict.
According to testimony and evidence presented at trial, Shi was admitted to the United States under a nonimmigrant work visa in 2022, placing him in a prohibited class of persons not legally allowed to possess firearms. He then operated a firearms parts business, selling various firearms parts and accessories at gun shows and out of a rented storage unit. Codefendants Victor Lafontaine and Jose Maldonado were among his customers; they assembled the parts into completed firearms and sold them without the required federal firearms license. The trial evidence also showed that Lafontaine sold firearms to prohibited persons, including convicted felons.
On February 20, 2025, federal agents executing a search warrant at Shi's home found multiple firearms. Shi was indicted on September 3, 2025, and was originally charged with six other individuals, including Lafontaine and Maldonado, as part of a gun trafficking operation; his six codefendants pleaded guilty and either have been sentenced or are awaiting sentencing.
The case was investigated by the FBI and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, with assistance from the Metropolitan Bureau of Investigation, the Orange County Sheriff's Office, the Orlando Police Department and other agencies, and is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Risha Asokan. It is part of Project Safe Neighborhoods, the Justice Department's violent-crime reduction program.
