Re: CHL Question during Jury Selection

Last jury call I answered there was no question of CHL brought up. Which considering the dirt bags defense claim suprised me. It was a Federal Weapons charge. FWPD & DEA busted the guy in his apartment w/a rather healthy assortment of illicit pharmacological substances, and a couple of strategicly placed handguns.

His claim was that the handguns were not involved in his illegal drugstore business as evidenced by the fact that he did not try to shoot the officers, but were only there because he enjoyed shooting at a local gun range with his buddies. Funny that a Colt 1911 loaded, and cocked was under the couch he was sitting on and a 357 was on the counter just feet from the front door. And he had kids under 8 yo on the premises.

His guilty verdict took 30 min and 25 of that was convincing one member that th only scenaro that made sense was he used them to control his customers if they got rowdy. I never thought they would pout me on thee since my brother is former SO and brother-in-law is an arson investigator and I had attemted to get on the local agency that made the bust.
