I agree with one of the commenters on this, in that when Stegmeier told the police that Kelly usually kept the gun under the pillow, that showed that he had turned over control of the gun to Kelly.

not sure i agree with the premise. first of all you never tell anybody where you keep your guns. second, if you’re gonna let someone stay in a place all by themselves, remove your guns from the area.
telling them ‘the gun is in the closet’ is almost like giving permission to use it. (beer is in the fridge means help yerself)

This is nuts!

This would mean that no one (including family members) could EVER possess a firearm IF a spouse, relative, close friend, etc. was a convicted felon and living with them?

Give me a F'n break already.

I had a friend years ago who took in a friend who was on Parole (white colar, non-violent offense) and could not keep firearms in his house while this other person was staying there and on Parole, but I've NEVER heard that once a person has served their sentence there was a prohibition from allowing someone who was a felon from living with you if you owned any weapon?

Someone have the USC Statute on that one???

I do NOT want felons to be in possession of...or even to have *access* to...firearms.Therefore I’m not sure I have a problem with this particular case.

Sane,law abiding adults can absolutely have them...courtesy of the 2nd Amendment.Others....NO!

Reason #1001 to NEVER EVER talk to the Police.

If he had chosen to exercise his right against self incrimination he would have been advised by his lawyer to NOT make incriminating statements to the Police about how the guy knew where his pistol was, and where he thought he usually kept it.

Flashback 1961. I was in the first grade. If it (’it’ being anything) was hidden, I would find it. My grandfather’s pistol was no exception. I was the “go to” person for my 2 older cousins in these stuations.

“A cowboy gun!!!” Putting on my best Annie Oakley face, I took the gun downstairs. Turning the corner, I aimed. “Stick ‘em up!”

I did not know a room full of adults could freeze on a dime. :) It was not loaded, but only my grandfather knew that.

So then I take it that no felon (legislator, entertainer, rapper, sports star) can have armed security.
