Lexington Felon Sentenced to More Than Three Years for Firearm Possession

Olundi Uhuru Anderson, 52, of Lexington, South Carolina, was sentenced to more than three years in federal prison after pleading guilty to unlawful possession of a firearm and ammunition.

The U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of South Carolina announced the result in a May 6, 2026 release. Anderson is the only defendant named in the case. The record contains no additional defendants, dollar figures, or program references.

Before the sentence Anderson remained outside custody following his guilty plea. The sentence now requires transfer to the Federal Bureau of Prisons for service of a term longer than 36 months. Designation to a specific facility occurs after the judgment is entered and standard administrative steps are completed.

The Bureau of Prisons assumes responsibility for housing and movement of the inmate. Upon release Anderson will begin a term of supervised release that includes standard conditions attached to firearms convictions. Any new violation returns the matter to the sentencing court. The conviction also creates a permanent addition to Anderson's criminal record accessible in future proceedings.

This outcome follows the ordinary sequence for federal firearms cases involving prior felony convictions. The Department of Justice issues comparable sentencing releases from the District of South Carolina on a recurring basis. No earlier actions involving this defendant are referenced in the present record.
