ALBANY, NEW YORK – Latrell Davis, age 19, of Brooklyn, New York, was sentenced today to time served (10 months in prison), to be followed by 180 days of home confinement, for stealing two firearms from Safeshoot, LLC, a federally licensed firearms dealer in Kingston, New York.

The announcement was made by United States Attorney Grant C. Jaquith and John B. Devito, Special Agent in Charge of the New York Field Division of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF).

United States District Judge Mae A. D’Agostino also sentenced Davis to 3 years of supervised release, which is to begin with 180 days of home confinement.

Davis pled guilty on November 13, 2019.  As part of his plea, Davis admitted that, on February 27, 2019, Davis and his co-conspirator entered Safeshoot by breaking an exterior window. Davis and his co-conspirator then pried open a glass display case, removed two firearms, and left Safeshoot with the firearms.

The case was investigated by the ATF and the Town of Ulster Police Department, and was prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Ashlyn Miranda.
