MUSKOGEE, OKLAHOMA – The United States Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Oklahoma has announced that Maxie Darryl Caston, a 58-year-old resident of Hugo, Oklahoma, received a sentence of 12 months and one day in prison. This will be followed by three years of supervised release. Caston was charged with one count of Felon in Possession of Firearm and Ammunition.
The charge resulted from an investigation conducted by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. On March 14, 2025, Caston entered a guilty plea to the charge. Investigators reported that on September 6, 2024, law enforcement executed a search warrant at Caston’s residence in Hugo. They seized a revolver, a shotgun, four rifles, and multiple rounds of ammunition. At that time, Caston had at least one prior felony conviction which prohibited him from legally possessing firearms or ammunition.
This case is part of Project Safe Neighborhoods (PSN), which aims to reduce violent crime and gun violence through collaboration between law enforcement agencies and communities. The program focuses on fostering trust within communities and supporting organizations that work to prevent violence.
The Honorable Ronald A. White presided over the hearing as Chief U.S. District Judge in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Oklahoma. Caston will remain under the custody of the U.S. Marshals Service until he is transported to a designated United States Bureau of Prisons facility to serve his non-paroleable sentence.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Lewis M. Reagan represented the United States in this case.
