CONCORD, N.H. (MyKeeneNow) A Swanzey man admitted in federal court Thursday to stealing 18 firearms from Trader John’s Gun Shop, according to federal prosecutors.
Khale Guillou, 19, pleaded guilty to theft of firearms from a federally licensed dealer. He is scheduled for sentencing on June 24, 2025, and faces up to 10 years in prison along with a potential fine of up to $250,000.
Court records show that Guillou broke into the gun shop on July 6, 2024, and took 18 firearms. Investigators later recovered six of them—four from his vehicle on July 15 and two more from his home on July 20.
The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives led the investigation with support from multiple law enforcement agencies, including police departments in Keene, Swanzey, Winchester, and Tewksbury.
A federal judge will determine Guillou’s sentence based on federal guidelines.
