Do you have proof that he bought the stolen gun?

Do you have proof he stole it. In the US we are supposed to be innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

No more so than you have proof he stole it. And since it was not the purpose of the bogus warrant it is not part of the case. This was just more of cops trying to cover their butts. This was sorry despicable and criminal cop work that was avoidable and should never have taken place, and those involved need to be charged.

donna, WTH are you talking about? Now he's got to "prove" that he bought the stolen gun?

What is this, Stalin's Russia?

I thought they had to arrest him and charge with stealing a gun, but it appears they skipped all that.

Now we're down to spending a pile of taxpayer money to find laws that he broke, AFTER the fact.

As I posted earlier, GREAT way of dealing with those bothersome ex-post-facto laws - just have enough laws in place so that the peasant is guilty of SOMETHING.
