Harrisburg man sentenced to 22 years in U.S. prison on drug, gun convictions

A Harrisburg man who sold crack cocaine and illegally possessed firearms will pay for his crimes by spending nearly 22 years in federal prison.

Robert Hendrix Jr., 39, received that punishment from U.S. Middle District Senior Judge Sylvia H. Rambo after pleading guilty to narcotics and firearms charges.

U.S. Attorney David Freed said Friday that Hendrix is a repeat criminal offender who was barred from possessing guns. His arrest resulted from an investigation by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and city police.
