A West Palm Beach man, Joseph Pyrzyk, is sentenced to an additional 11 years in prison for illegally possessing a firearm and ammunition, following a failure to turn himself in for a prior felony charge. This latest sentencing comes after Pyrzyk, who has a criminal record, did not comply with a federal judge’s order to surrender in 2022 after serving only two years from an earlier conviction in 2021.
Pyrzyk’s legal troubles escalated in 2023 when law enforcement discovered him at a residence in West Palm Beach, where they found both marijuana and a firearm in his vehicle.
