FEDERAL FELONY FALSE STATEMENT in CONNECTION with the ACQUISITION of a FIREARM REDUCED to PROBATION with ZERO DAYS in Jail – State v. Ms. C (DMC No. 9181) (United States District Court, District of Arizona No. 06CR00764-001-PHX-ROS): Ms. C was charged with a Class D felony for False Statement in connection with the Acquisition of a Firearm, pursuant to 18 USC 924 (a)(1)(A). This particular crime carries up to 5 years in prison in a $250,000 fine. Ms. C was dating a convicted felon and she had purchased several firearms using her father’s business address as her home address. It appeared that she had purchased the firearms in order to allow her boyfriend to illegally possess them. She was subsequently indicted for the original False Statement, and the Federal Government was seeking prison time. We were able to convince the Judge that she was merely an infatuated girlfriend who wrote down her father’s address at the behest of her boyfriend. She was ultimately sentenced to only probation with zero days in Jail.
