Two Savannah Men Sentenced to 111 Months Each for Armed Assault on Federal Undercover Agent
The U.S. Department of Justice announced that two men from Savannah, Georgia, have each been sentenced to 111 months in federal prison for assaulting a federal officer and using a firearm during a crime of violence. Terry Rashad Flaggs, 19, and Jaidyn Jaquan Greene, 20, had pleaded guilty to assault on a federal officer and using a firearm during and in relation to a crime of violence, and each will also serve three years of supervised release after prison.
The sentences were imposed by U.S. District Court Judge Lisa Godbey Wood and announced by Margaret E. Heap, U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Georgia. There is no parole in the federal system.
According to court documents and testimony, in November 2025 the two men possessed a stolen firearm they were attempting to sell. The victim found his stolen firearm, a Glock Model 34, 9 mm pistol, listed for sale on a social media outlet and notified the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF). An ATF undercover agent arranged a controlled purchase of the stolen firearm.
During the exchange, Flaggs and Greene brandished a second pistol, a Palmetto State Armory Dagger, 9 mm, and tried to overpower the agent and take back the stolen firearm after receiving payment. A scuffle ensued, and Savannah Police Department officers monitoring the operation moved in. The two fled on foot but were pursued and apprehended, and both firearms were recovered.
U.S. Attorney Heap said the defendants' brazen actions showed complete disregard for the law and the safety of the community, and credited the ATF and the Savannah Police Department with apprehending them before their violence could cause further harm. ATF Assistant Special Agent in Charge Brian Graves said attempting to take a firearm by force put the undercover agent and the public at serious risk. The case was investigated by the ATF and the Savannah Police Department and prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Jennifer J. Kirkland. (Source: U.S. Department of Justice)
