BAKERSFIELD, Calif. (KERO) — A Bakersfield man was sentenced in federal court Monday to nearly six years in prison for possession of ammunition after being convicted of domestic violence.

Court documents state that 26-year-old Jesus B. Cordero was arrested in September 2020 in Bakersfield after he was pulled over by police. Officers found drugs and a loaded gun in his vehicle.

Due to his prior conviction of domestic violence, Cordero is barred from possessing guns or ammunition.

Monday, Cordero was sentenced to 5 years and 10 months for illegal possession of ammunition
