[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The DC Court of Appeals just issued an awful 4th Amendment decision making it more difficult to prosecute gun possession cases. Terrible. The police saw a person very suspiciously remove a coat as if he wanted to conceal something in the pocket. They looked at the coat and there was a gun inside. This was ruled to be unconstitutional and guy goes free. https://www.dccourts.gov/sites/default/files/2024-01/Champion%20v%20US%2018-CF-1128.pdf Of course after this arrest, the defendant Juwan Champion was later charged in a big drug trafficking case: https://www.justice.gov/usao-dc/pr/four-men-charged-drug-trafficking-conspiracy-including-two-charged-possession-machine-gun[/quote] Meh. The DC City Council passed laws raising the age of a “juvenile offender” to 26 years-old. So a 26 year illegally possessing an illegal gun in DC won’t do any time in jail anyway. DC just let’s them go right back on the street, to get back to doing more crimes.[/quote]
