Actor Bobb’e Thompson, recognized for roles in ‘That’s So Raven’ and ‘The Tracy Morgan Show’, has been sentenced to 30 months in federal prison. The sentencing follows a guilty plea to possession of a firearm by a convicted felon.

The case originated from a September 2025 traffic stop in Cerro Gordo County, Iowa, where Thompson was traveling 104 mph. During the stop, law enforcement discovered marijuana and a loaded .40-caliber handgun in his backpack; the firearm had been reported stolen from a vehicle in Kansas City, Missouri.

U.S. District Court Judge Leonard T. Strand ordered the 30-month prison term and two-and-a-half years of supervised release. The judge noted that the sentence would commence after Thompson completes any pending criminal cases in Washington and Missouri. To keep Thompson near his family, the judge suggested he serve his time in a federal facility located in Oklahoma, Illinois, or Kansas.
