(Pittsburgh, PA) Robert Schatzman, 21, of Butler, has been sentenced to 20 months in federal prison for illegally possessing a firearm, according to U.S. Attorney Troy Rivetti. 

Federal prosecutors said law enforcement officers executed a search warrant at Schatzman’s home in April 2025 and recovered a Glock pistol from an air vent in his bedroom. 

Authorities said Schatzman had previously been convicted of robbery in Lawrence County Court of Common Pleas, making it illegal under federal law for him to possess a firearm or ammunition.
