The marijuana bust was the ruse (reason) to get in the door. They were after a source of illegal weapons.
The CI said Fricke and his friend had others purchase approximately 13 to 15 firearms for them in the past 4-5 months.
This is more than a few. This guy was reselling guns to those prohibited from owning them, like a convicted felon in possession of a handgun as well as cocaine and ecstasy. Not exactly a Good Guy.
Living with Grandma in her duplex, with no job except running guns & drugs from the place, Jordan Fricke is not my idea of a stand-up guy. F_ck him for destroying lives while exercising his 2nd amendment rights. Anybody who sides with this guy has a twisted view of life and the rule of law.
It is a CI.
He does not differentiate between Fricke and the other guy.
It could be as you say, but they did not find any illegal weapons.
The only illegal weapons in Wisconsin would have been automatic firearms or sawed off rifles or shotguns.
None of the people at the house had felony records.
It seems to me the marijuana purchases were the main complaint. Both were mentioned on the no-knock warrant.
