Gulfport, Miss – Dewayne Jeh Reion Leonta Bowie, 21, of Gulfport, was sentenced by U.S. District Judge Sul Ozerden to 87 months in prison followed by three years of supervised release on each of two counts for being an unlawful user of narcotics in possession of firearms, U. S. Attorney Gregory K. Davis announced today. Bowie was also ordered to pay a $6,000 fine.
Bowie was in possession of a firearm on two separate dates in August, 2016. Charges of possession of a firearm with an obliterated serial number and possession of a stolen firearm were dismissed pursuant to the plea agreement with the Government.
