Lincoln Man Sentenced for Selling Gun to Minor

Acting United States Attorney Matthew R. Molsen announced that Camarion Almond, 21, of Lincoln, Nebraska, was sentenced on April 17, 2025, in federal court in Lincoln for unlawful disposition of a firearm. United States District Court Judge Susan M. Bazis sentenced Almond to 57 months’ imprisonment. There is no parole in the federal system. After Almond’s release from prison, he will begin a 3-year term of supervised release.

In 2023, officers with the Lincoln Police Department began investigating Clifton Davis after several guns purchased by him were used in crimes committed by others, including a homicide. Through search warrants executed on Davis’s phone, law enforcement learned that he had transferred multiple guns to Camarion Almond. Law enforcement reviewed text messages between Almond and others, and learned that on February 17, 2023, Almond called Davis after another friend, a minor at the time, told Almond that he wanted to purchase some firearms. The following day, Almond texted his friend to say that guns were available, and the two briefly discussed a price. Additional discussions in March include others reaching out, through Almond, to see if Davis had any additional guns to sell.

In imposing the sentence, Judge Bazis stressed the risk providing guns to those who cannot legally get them poses to the general public. One of the guns Almond passed along to the minor was ultimately used in a homicide.

Davis was previously sentenced to 16 months’ imprisonment for his role in the offense.

This case was investigated by the Lincoln Police Department.
