重罪犯接连卖出三支手枪含一支被盗枪，Peoria男子被判42个月监禁
美国司法部伊利诺伊中区联邦检察官办公室宣布，位于伊利诺伊州皮奥里亚县的 Peoria 市一名男子因以重罪犯身份持有枪支，于2026年11月4日被判处42个月监禁。36岁的 Quincy Jones 两项重罪犯持枪罪名各判42个月、并行执行，刑满后还要接受3年监督释放。
据法庭文件与庭上陈述，Jones 于2025年6月30日以450美元把一支 Smith & Wesson .38口径左轮手枪卖给他人；同年10月9日，他又以600美元卖出一支 Glock 43手枪、以800美元卖出一支 Taurus 手枪。其中 Glock 手枪是在 Pekin 被盗的枪支，弹匣内有6发子弹；Taurus 手枪配有加长弹匣、装有21发子弹。Jones 还告诉买家，他打算去密西西比州再带回更多步枪和手枪。
联邦大陪审团于2026年3月对 Jones 提起公诉，他于同年8月认罪，自2026年3月被捕以来一直由美国法警局羁押。每项重罪犯持枪罪名的法定最高刑为15年监禁与最高25万美元罚款。
量刑时，联邦资深地区法官 Michael M. Mihm 指出 Jones 卖枪时非常像做生意、高效干练，并质问这些枪支怎么可能不落入坏人之手；法官还提到 Jones 此前有枪支与毒品犯罪前科，希望他就此停止犯罪活动。

Peoria Man Sentenced to 42 Months in Prison for Possession of a Firearm
The U.S. Attorney's Office for the Central District of Illinois announced that a man from Peoria, a city in Peoria County, Illinois, was sentenced on November 4, 2026, to 42 months of imprisonment for possessing firearms as a felon. Quincy Jones, 36, received 42 months on each of two counts, to be served concurrently, to be followed by three years of supervised release.
According to court documents and statements in court, on June 30, 2025, Jones sold a Smith & Wesson .38 caliber revolver to an individual for $450. On October 9, 2025, he sold a Glock 43 pistol for $600 and a Taurus pistol for $800. The Glock, which had been stolen in Pekin, Illinois, had six rounds of ammunition in the magazine, and the Taurus had an extended magazine with 21 rounds. Jones told the buyer he planned to travel to Mississippi to bring back more rifles and pistols.
A federal grand jury indicted Jones in March 2026. He pleaded guilty in August 2026 and has been in the custody of the U.S. Marshals Service since his arrest in March 2026. The statutory penalty for each count is up to 15 years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000.
At sentencing, U.S. Senior District Judge Michael M. Mihm noted that Jones was very business-like and efficient in selling the firearms, asking, 'How could they not have ended up in the wrong hands?' The judge noted Jones's prior firearm and drug convictions and said he hoped Jones would cease his criminal activity.
The case was investigated by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), and First Assistant U.S. Attorney Darilynn J. Knauss represented the government. The case is part of Project Safe Neighborhoods. (Source: U.S. Attorney's Office for the Central District of Illinois)
