PHOENIX—Delwyn Aaron Randall, 26, of Cove, Arizona, was sentenced here Tuesday, August 31, 2010, by U.S. District Judge Neil V. Wake to 33 months in prison followed by three years of supervised release. Randall pleaded guilty on March 24, 2010, to one count of being a felon in possession of a firearm.
On January 23, 2009, the defendant, who in 2004 had previously been convicted in New Mexico State Court of conspiring to distribute marijuana, possessed a revolver outside his home in Cove, Arizona. This led to an eight-hour standoff with police officers of the Navajo Nation which ultimately ended peacefully.
The investigation in this case was conducted by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Navajo Nation Department of Criminal Investigation. The prosecution was handled by Brian E. Kasprzyk, Assistant U.S. Attorney, District of Arizona, Phoenix.
