Daryl Louis Johnson also was convicted of domestic battery against his roommate, Kendall County State's Attorney Eric Weis said.
A 54-year-old Plano man with four prior felony convictions was sentenced to six years in prison Friday for having a loaded .357-caliber revolver and ammunition.
Daryl Louis Johnson, of the 400 block of East Abe Street, was arrested after his roommate, who also was his landlord, accused him of domestic battery, according to a news release from State’s Attorney Eric Weis. Plano police found the revolver and ammunition in Johnson’s belongings during their investigation, Weis said.
Jurors convicted Johnson of unlawful possession of a weapon by a felon and domestic battery after a two-day trial in March. Judge John Barsanti held a sentencing hearing Friday.
