A Sarasota felon has been sentenced to five years in prison for possessing nearly four tons of explosive fuses. Court records say 57-year-old Marc Jason Levene, of Sarasota, was sentenced Wednesday in Tampa federal court. He pleaded guilty in September to two counts of possession of explosives by a convicted felon. He has had prior felony drug convictions that prohibited him from possessing or selling explosive materials. The ATF and Sarasota County Sheriff’s Office searched Levene’s home and storage unit in February and uncovered about 7,700 pounds of explosive fuses.
