Richmond Ex-Con Sentenced for Illegal Firearm Possession, Cocaine

RICHMOND, VA – Today, Henry Leon Marrow, Jr., a 34-year-old resident of Richmond, was sentenced to three and a half years in prison for illegal possession of a firearm due to his status as a convicted felon. The sentencing follows Marrow’s admission of guilt on November 9, 2023, for possessing a loaded Glock 9mm handgun despite prior felony convictions.

The arrest occurred on June 9, 2023, when Richmond Police Officers observed Marrow engaged in a narcotics transaction in a convenience store parking lot on Richmond Highway. Upon arrest, officers discovered 3.18 grams of cocaine on Marrow and, upon his admission, located the firearm in his pants.
