Mallory Nehemiah Brown, 43, of Auburn, Washington, pleaded guilty Tuesday to being a prohibited person in possession of a firearm, according to a press release from the U.S. Attorney’s Office. Brown faces a maximum of 15 years in prison, a $250,000 fine and three years of supervised release.

Brown has a 2004 bank robbery conviction on his record and it prohibits him from possessing firearms and ammunition. The government alleged in court documents that in 2004, Brown was convicted of bank robbery in federal district court in California.
