BANGOR – An Orland man was sentenced Wednesday in U.S. District Court to one year and eight months in prison and fined $4,000 for having six firearms in his possession when he was prohibited from having any.

Kenneth W. Mann, 62, was convicted of a domestic violence crime in 2002, which made it illegal for him to have firearms.

In March 2004, the Hancock County Sheriff’s Department retrieved a pistol, ammunition and other guns from a locker and a locked wooden box in Mann’s home. Mann’s wife had called the Sheriff’s Department to report a dispute with her husband.

According to Mann, none of the seized firearms belonged to him. A man from Dedham had purchased them, Mann claimed, and had not come to pick them up.

Mann was indicted in June 2005 on one count of possession of a firearm by a person convicted of a misdemeanor crime of domestic violence. He pleaded guilty to that charge.
