同案数人此前已被判刑：Walter Hicks 现年23岁，判54个月监禁及3年监管释放；Lilly Palmer 现年23岁，判缓刑4年；Alonzo Brewer 现年22岁，判缓刑3年；Madison Schreckengost 现年23岁，判监禁1个月及3年监管释放，其中头4个月居家拘留并接受定位监控。另一名同案被告 Diamond Taylor 现年25岁，定于12月3日量刑。

Akron, Ohio Man Sentenced to 8 Years for Trafficking 19 Firearms Through Straw Purchasers and Distributing Drugs
An Akron, Ohio, man who recruited others to buy firearms on his behalf has been sentenced to eight years in federal prison, the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Northern District of Ohio announced on November 9. Gary Robinson, 27, of Akron, in Summit County, Ohio, was sentenced to 96 months in prison and a $500 fine, to be followed by three years of supervised release.
U.S. District Judge J. Philip Calabrese imposed the sentence. Robinson had pleaded guilty to distribution of marijuana, possession of a firearm in furtherance of a drug trafficking crime, and trafficking in firearms.
According to court documents, in the summer of 2025 law enforcement investigating suspected drug trafficking in the Akron area identified Robinson. In addition to distributing marijuana, Robinson trafficked firearms with co-defendant Walter Hicks. Robinson recruited three women to purchase firearms at licensed dealers in Barberton and Canton, and Hicks recruited a fourth person to buy firearms from a dealer in Coventry Township. The straw purchasers lied on federal forms that they were the true buyers, then turned the firearms, including several 9 mm pistols, over to Robinson and Hicks. In total, the two trafficked 19 firearms.
Several co-defendants, all of Akron, were previously sentenced: Walter Hicks, 23, received 54 months in prison and three years of supervised release; Lilly Palmer, 23, received four years of probation; Alonzo Brewer, 22, received three years of probation; and Madison Schreckengost, 23, received one month in prison and three years of supervised release, with the first four months on home detention with location monitoring. Co-defendant Diamond Taylor, 25, is scheduled to be sentenced on December 3.
The case was investigated by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives and the Akron Police Department, and was prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Brenna L. Fasko.
