MoreLaw Legal News For Cleveland





On March 26, 2021, Adolphus Philpot, age 36, from Maple, Ohio, was arrested on an outstanding warrant for felonious assault, which stemmed from a January 2021 shooting. Following his arrest, law enforcement authorities began an investigation into information they had received regarding Philpot’s suspected possession of firearms.

Authorities later determined that Philpot had concealed two firearms belonging to him in a residence and had contacted associates to arrange for the firearms to be hidden from law enforcement. Philpot is prohibited from possessing a firearm due to previous convictions of domestic violence, aggravated assault, and drug trafficking in the Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Court.

This investigation was conducted by the Cleveland Division of Police and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF). This case is being prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Kelly L. Galvin.

Outcome: A federal jury found Defendant guilty.
