So his accountant fucked up his taxes and he brought a gun into a gun-free governmental zone at some point?
He also lied about drug use on his paperwork while buying the gun. Which is also felony.
He also also admitted to drug posession while armed, which is another felony.
What questions about drug use are on the paperwork? Lawyer pretty told me to ALWAYS lie about previous drug use unless it's gov paperwork or courts.
When getting a handgun license or registering a firearm in some states there can be questions like "are you a habitual drunkard" and "Are you an addict or habitual user of a controlled dangerous substance?" Lying about this can end up being a felony, at least in Maryland where I pulled the above two questions from.
Do they really word it that way? That's stupid broad. Applied for a IT Position for a local PD decades ago, the wording was very clearly "Have you ever done any illegal drugs; List every instance and explain".
I did not end up applying.
