德克萨斯州 Lubbock 男子贩运冰毒与持枪三项罪名成立：陪审团不到 2 小时定罪，面临最高终身监禁
德克萨斯州 Lubbock 一名男子因贩运冰毒与持枪被联邦陪审团裁定三项罪名全部成立。美国司法部德克萨斯北区联邦检察官办公室 11 月 12 日公布，36 岁的 Jarrod Charles Gauna 于 11 月 10 日被定罪。
此案由联邦地区法官 James Wesley Hendrix 主持，经过两日审理，陪审团用不到 2 小时裁定 Gauna 三项罪名成立：共谋分销及持有并意图分销冰毒、持有并意图分销冰毒、以及在毒品交易犯罪中持有枪支。
据庭审证据，Lubbock 警局与缉毒局（DEA）缉毒人员在两次受控购买后注意到 Gauna 位于 Lubbock 西部的住所：其同案被告 John Deleon 在 2025 年 10 月与 11 月两次向线人交付数盎司冰毒前，都先去过 Gauna 的住所，Deleon 已于今年 8 月就冰毒分销罪名认罪。2026 年 1 月 15 日，缉毒人员搜查 Gauna 住所，查获约半盎司冰毒与数盎司二甲基砜。二甲基砜是毒贩常用的冰毒切割剂，用于增加可售数量，Deleon 交付的冰毒中也检出同样的切割剂。
搜查人员还在其住所查获四支枪，包括三支手枪与一支上下双管霰弹枪，三支手枪均已装填并随手可及，其中一支离毒品证据只有数英寸。Gauna 现面临最高终身监禁，因其此前已有在毒品交易中持枪的定罪，此次持枪罪的加重最低刑期为 25 年，且毒品罪刑期须与持枪罪刑期连续执行。量刑定于 2027 年 3 月 4 日。此案由 DEA 与 Lubbock 警局领查，助理联邦检察官 Sean Long 与 Tyler Smotherman 起诉。
Lubbock Man Convicted on Methamphetamine and Firearm Charges: Jury Deliberates Under 2 Hours, Faces Up to Life
A Lubbock, Texas, man has been convicted by a federal jury on drug and gun charges. The U.S. Attorney's Office for the Northern District of Texas announced on November 12 that Jarrod Charles Gauna, 36, was convicted on November 10 following a multi-agency search warrant at his residence in January.
Following a two-day trial presided over by U.S. District Judge James Wesley Hendrix, a federal jury took less than two hours to convict Gauna on all three counts in a May indictment: conspiracy to distribute and possess with intent to distribute methamphetamine, possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine, and possession of firearms in furtherance of a drug trafficking crime.
According to evidence presented at trial, Lubbock Police Department and Drug Enforcement Administration narcotics agents became aware of Gauna's residence in west Lubbock after it was involved in two drug controlled purchases. His codefendant, John Deleon, traveled to Gauna's residence just prior to meeting a confidential informant and delivering several ounces of methamphetamine in October 2025, and followed the same pattern in November 2025. Deleon pleaded guilty to methamphetamine distribution charges in August. On January 15, agents executed a search warrant at Gauna's residence and found approximately one-half ounce of methamphetamine along with several ounces of dimethyl sulfone, a substance traffickers commonly use to cut methamphetamine.
Agents also found four firearms in the residence, three pistols and one over-under shotgun, all three pistols loaded and readily accessible, one within inches of the drug evidence. Gauna now faces up to life in federal prison. Because he has a previous conviction for possessing a firearm in furtherance of a drug trafficking crime, he faces an enhanced minimum sentence of 25 years following his second such conviction, and any sentence for the drug charges must run consecutively to the firearm charge. Sentencing is scheduled for March 4, 2027. The DEA and Lubbock Police Department led the investigation. Assistant U.S. Attorneys Sean Long and Tyler Smotherman are prosecuting the case.
