DAVENPORT, IA - On April 13, 2017, Cody Lee Motz, age 26, of Davenport, Iowa, was sentenced by Chief United States District Court Judge John A. Jarvey to 70 months in prison for being a felon in possession of a firearm, announced United States Attorney Kevin E. VanderSchel. Motz also will be required to serve three years of supervised release following his imprisonment.
On November 14, 2016, Motz pleaded guilty to this charge and admitted that he possessed a Lorcin Model L22 handgun while in Davenport, Iowa. The firearm, along with controlled substances, were discovered during a drug investigation that led to the execution of a search warrant at a residence on the 1200 block of Stark Street in Davenport, Iowa.
This investigation was conducted by the Scott County Sheriff’s Department and the Davenport Police Department. The case was prosecuted by the United States Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Iowa.
