Dashone Gibson, 28 , of Stonewall, was found guilty of possession of a firearm by a convicted felon by the seven-man, five-woman jury in District Judge John D. Mosely Jr.’s court after deliberating less than 20 minutes. The verdict was unanimous. After hearing evidence that included Louisiana State Police bodycam video and trooper testimony, as well as testimony from state Probation and Parole agents, jurors determined that on June 11, 2021, Gibson illegally possessed a Mossberg shotgun . The weapon was found in the trunk of a vehicle Gibson was driving when stopped by troopers for texting and driving. Troopers noted the smell of marijuana emitting from the vehicle and conducted a search of the vehicle. Gibson was convicted of simple burglary in DeSoto Parish in 2017 and is legally prohibited from possessing a firearm until 2029. When Gibson returns to Judge Mosely’s court October 16, 2024, he faces at least five years and up to 20 years without benefit of parole, probation or suspension of sentence. Gibson was prosecuted by Assistant District Attorneys Jasmine Cooper and Kodie Smith. He was defended by Casey Simpson and Hilary Hileman. The case was docket No. 383463. <a href="//710keel.com/shreveport-felon-gun-possession/" rel="nofollow"> Click here to view photo gallery </a><a href="//710keel.com/shreveport-felon-gun-possession/" rel="nofollow"> Click here to view photo gallery </a><a href="//710keel.com/shreveport-felon-gun-possession/" rel="nofollow"> Click here to view photo gallery </a><a href="//710keel.com/shreveport-felon-gun-possession/" rel="nofollow"> Click here to view photo gallery </a></div></body>
