Description
Brandon Haywood, a 47-year-old from Independence, Missouri, was sentenced to 20 years in federal prison for drug trafficking and illegal gun possession. He had a prior manslaughter conviction and was found guilty in September 2025 on three counts: intent to distribute cocaine, carrying a firearm during drug trafficking, and being a felon with a gun. The charges stemmed from a February 2023 incident where he was found with a handgun and cocaine in his car during a police investigation. Haywood also faces separate state charges for child molestation and sexual misconduct from the same incident, which remain unresolved.
