Description: Raleigh, North Carolina criminal defense lawyer represented defendant charge with possession of a firearm by a convicted felon.
According to court documents, on June 23, 2018, deputies from the Northampton County Sheriff’s Office responded to a disturbance at a residence involving Tyshawn Lamar Williams, 29. Deputies were advised that Williams was threatening a woman with a gun. When deputies arrived, they encountered Williams inside the house exiting a bedroom. Williams attempted to toss a firearm between the kitchen refrigerator and a cabinet. Deputies took Williams into custody and found a quantity of cocaine base (crack) and several thousand dollars in U.S. currency on his person. Deputies also recovered the gun Williams attempted to discard, which was a loaded .45 caliber handgun with an extended magazine. Williams is a convicted felon and is therefore prohibited from possessing firearms.
The Northampton County Sheriff’s Office investigated the case and Assistant U.S. Attorney Robert J. Dodson prosecuted the case.
