U.S. Attorney Secures Sentence for Firearm Incident

On August 15, 2022, Ian Channing Lasiloo, 31, an enrolled member of the Zuni Tribe, drove to the residence of his cousin, John Doe. Upon arrival, Lasiloo confronted John Doe with a handgun, demanding payment of a $40 debt. When John Doe denied owing the money, Lasiloo pointed the weapon at his face before aiming at the ground and firing. The bullet struck John Doe in the left heel, causing a superficial wound that required treatment at Zuni Hospital.

Lasiloo was apprehended by law enforcement the following day. During questioning, he expressed remorse for his actions, stating that he had intended to frighten John Doe due to the alleged debt.

U.S. Attorney Alexander M.M. Uballez and Raul Bujanda, Special Agent in Charge of the FBI Albuquerque Field Office, made the announcement today.

The Gallup Resident Agency of the FBI Albuquerque Field Office investigated this case with assistance from the Zuni Police Department. Assistant United States Attorney Robert James Booth II is prosecuting the case.

Outcome:

Defendant was found guilty and sentenced to 7 years in federal prison. Upon his release from prison, Lasiloo will be subject to 3 years of supervised release
