SHREVEPORT, La. – United States Attorney Brandon B. Brown announced that a federal jury returned a guilty verdict today against Keynon Frazier, a/k/a “Green Eyez,” 29, of Shreveport, on an illegal possession of firearms charge. United States District Judge S. Maurice Hicks, Jr. presided over the three-day jury trial.
Evidence presented at trial showed that on April 15, 2024, officers with the Shreveport Police Department attempted to stop a vehicle being driven by Frazier in the downtown Shreveport area, which ended with his vehicle crashing into a telephone pole and another vehicle. Officers approached the crashed vehicle and found Frazier, who was the sole occupant and driver of the vehicle. Also inside the vehicle on the front passenger floorboard, officers found two firearms, a Glock 17 firearm, and a Glock 45 firearm, along with an expended shell casing stuck within the chamber of the Glock 45. In addition, there was a bullet-size hole found in the front driver’s side windshield of the vehicle.
Officers determined that Frazier had prior felony convictions for aggravated battery and second degree robbery, and he was arrested at the scene and taken into custody. As a convicted felon, Frazier was prohibited from possessing any firearm or ammunition. The jury deliberated for approximately two hours before reaching their guilty verdict.
Frazier faces a sentence of up to 15 years in prison, 3 years of supervised release, and a fine of up to $250,000. Sentencing for Frazier has been set for May 22, 2025, at 3:00.
The case was investigated by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and Shreveport Police Department and prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorneys Aaron Crawford and Cheyenne Wilson.
