Montgomery Men Sentenced to Federal Prison for Illegal Firearms

Two Montgomery men have been sentenced to federal prison for illegal firearm possession. Taboris Ladale Mock, 33, received a 14-year sentence after pleading guilty to possessing guns as a convicted felon and firing at a vehicle in a parking lot in September 2024, which resulted in a fatality. Authorities recovered a 9mm handgun from Mock's residence during a search warrant execution. Separately, Da’Quarious Lamarion Dudley, 21, was sentenced to around 20 months for possessing a Glock 17 pistol converted into a machine gun using a Glock switch, following his arrest in February 2024 during a stolen vehicle incident. Evidence from Dudley's Facebook page indicated regular possession of such switches and attempts to procure them for others. Both cases were investigated by local law enforcement in cooperation with federal agencies including the ATF and prosecuted by U.S. Attorneys.
