Waterloo felon sent back to prison for gun possession

CEDAR RAPIDS – A man who possessed firearms after finishing his prison terms was sentenced December 1, 2021, to a total of seven years in federal prison.

Jumonie Dontez Wilson, age 21, from Waterloo Iowa, received the prison term after an April 23, 2021 guilty plea to being a felon in possession of a firearm.

In October 2019, Wilson was sentenced to 21 months in prison after pleading guilty to being a drug user in possession of a firearm. In his December 1, 2021, sentencing hearing, Wilson admitted that after being released in October 2020, he violated his supervised release conditions by using marijuana and possessing a firearm. On November 18, 2020, Wilson was at a residence with friends and a gun went off, resulting in life threatening injuries to one of the friends. Wilson later told another person that he and the injured person believed the guns were empty and shot at each other. Wilson was arrested the next day when he ran from law enforcement while tossing a loaded firearm.

Wilson was sentenced in Cedar Rapids by United States District Court Judge C.J. Williams. Wilson was sentenced to 60 months’ imprisonment in the felon in possession case and must serve an additional 24 months’ imprisonment in the 2019 case. He must also serve a three-year term of supervised release after the prison term. There is no parole in the federal system.

Wilson is being held in the United States Marshal’s custody until he can be returned to federal prison.

The case was prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Emily K. Nydle and investigated by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and the Waterloo Police Department.
