A federal judge in Boston on Wednesday handed down sentencing on one of three defendants involved in the theft of 16 weapons from a reserve center in Massachusetts.
Ashley Bigsbee, 27, of Dorchester, was given 21 to 36 months in prison, followed by supervised release for a term of three years, for her part in the 2015 theft of more than a dozen guns from a U.S. Army Reserve center in Worcester.
According to court documents, Bigsbee along with her boyfriend Tyrone James, 29, helped store and sell the M4 rifles and M11 pistols allegedly stolen by a recently discharged Army Reserve soldier, James Walker Morales.
Morales told investigators that Bigsbee introduced him to Tyrone James, who then arranged the sale of five handguns in two separate transactions. A series of photos and text messages by James and Bigsbee were sent to potential buyers including shots of Bigsbee, identified by distinctive hand tattooing, holding one of the stolen “U.S.” marked M11s, one of the select-fire M4’s on a kitchen table, and two M11’s lying on
