Third employee of Junkluggers Willow Grove receives gun trafficking sentence in addition to life term for murder

Jeremy Fuentes, 27, of Philadelphia, was sentenced to 6 to 14 years in prison after pleading guilty to being involved in 10 illegal gun transfers between June 2024 and January 2025, The Pottstown Mercury reported.

His charges include corrupt organizations, illegal transfer of firearms, sale of firearms to ineligible persons and conspiracy.

Fuentes’ sentence was added consecutively to the life sentence he is already serving for his role in a deadly home invasion burglary in Lower Merion that left Andrew Gaudio dead and his mother, Bernadette Gaudio, seriously injured. Kelvin Roberts Jr., 42, of Philadelphia, and Charles Edward Fulforth, 41, of the Jenkintown section of Abington Township, and Fuentes were coworkers at Junkluggers in Willow Grove (Upper Moreland Township) and each were involved in the invasion.

The additional prison term will make it more difficult for a future governor to commute the life term, The Mercury said.

Roberts and Fulforth each received maximum sentences in September 2025. Each received additional sentences for their involvement in gun trafficking in December 2025.

In September 2025, Fuentes was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole, plus a consecutive 4 to 20 years after being found guilty of Second-Degree Murder and related charges.
