A few years ago the Washington DC police could arrest you for having the empty case from a fired round in your possession.

Perhaps that is still true today.

I think it is still true an even worse than you say. There is a recent case of a collector who had an empty case of a caliber he did not have a registered firearm in.

BOOM! instant felony charge.
