DES MOINES, Iowa – A Des Moines man was sentenced Wednesday to 110 months (or a little more than 9-years) in federal prison for possessing a firearm as a felon.

According to public court documents, 21-year-old Antonio Dontez Hoffman, Jr., burglarized a deceased woman’s house during her funeral and stole a large number of guns and ammunition. Hoffman’s phone contained messages with his co-conspirator about his desire to sell most of the guns he thought they would find at the house and those he desired to keep for himself. At the time, Hoffman was on state probation following his conviction for possession of a stolen firearm.

After completing his term of imprisonment, Hoffman will be required to serve a three-year term of supervised release. There is no parole in the federal system.

United States Attorney Richard D. Westphal of the Southern District of Iowa made the announcement. The case was investigated by the Des Moines Police Department.
