Where is that he’s a sovereign citizen coming from? They do piss off coos so maybe, but I’m guessing his firearm was in plain sight during this incident. The kid was loaded into the ambulance and they said hey let’s see that. I’d assume all guns were somewhere other than just hanging around during this incident anyway. It would be piss poor police work to let tons of people you don’t know around you with weapons.
Be nice if we actually had details and knew where this stood.

When a firearm incident happens, the gun is confiscated, for exam/legal ownership and history, by the cops, and for determination if a crime has occured.

Not in dispute.

Outcome...........Letitia James may be involved.

Imo it sounds like someone (fudd) ratted on Joyce to the LEO that responded the kids incident.
Because Joyce said his rifle was stored away in his truck and he was 400yds away from the kid. 400 yds is pretty far away. So I tend to think a fudd saw Joyce hunting with an AR10 & ratted on him.

Why was the man nearby?

Was he just an interested spectator, or involved with the kid, and moved his truck and gun400 yards away, before the cops came?


Cops are at least as smart as you and see human deception attempts all the time.

Once they determined that the man WAS involved, his truck was searched as it was a crime scene..........gun will likely never be returned................case may pend for years.

I hunt with a black rifle and people do not like it. A local guy harassed me about it once. Didn’t think it was strong enough to take down a deer. I told him the caliber and he looked at me like I had three heads. I told him ballistically it will handle a deer no issues because I have a round more suitable for deer hunting and he was like oh ok. Had no clue what I was talking about.

Wait, I thought the scary rifles were so powerful that the damage caused by the round hitting the animal made the meat unusable?

6.8SPC. Not the biggest but it will do the trick. I use 110 SST V-max black rounds. They will do the trick. Heck a well placed .556/.223 round will as well. Many poachers use .22’s. A guy by me was doing it for years and never got caught. Every cop knew who he was but could never catch him. He’d shoot them in the head in a factory field and let them lay there for an hour or two to make sure no one heard the shot. Then he’d go and grab it. He had good sight lines so he knew no one was around.

This guys attorney needs to force the states hand to the right of a speedy trial.
The defense should have sworn testimony that five officers tried to remove the magazine and failed.

Lawyers cost big money. Determination of mag removal is over......done deal.

But.........


Intent may be saving grace...might be dismissed; so that Auntie does not have to have the situation tested.

Gun is gone, likely.
Mag has been removed and it is now an unregistered AW.
