Firearm & Weapons Crimes
You know why there’s a Second Amendment? In case the government fails to follow the first one.
-Rush Limbaugh
Many have faced firearm and weapon offence charges: T.I., Sean “P.Diddy” Combs, Lil’ Wayne, Eminem, Snoop Dogg, and even Jay-Z were all accused and charged of firearm and weapons offences. T.I. was charged with federal gun charges when his bodyguard became an informant and delivered three machine guns and two silencers to the hip hop star. P. Diddy was arrested and charged with criminal possession of a weapon which was connected to a shooting incident at a club in New York. Lil’ Wayne attempted to conceal a .40-caliber gun when his tour bus was searched by police. Eminem pleaded “no contest” to felony gun charges because he carried a concealed weapon without a permit when he ran into a member of the Insane Clown Posse. Snoop Dogg pleaded “no contest” after police searched his home and found an illegal gun. Jay-Z was arrested after police pulled him over and found a loaded gun in his car.
However, it is not only rappers who are arrested on these types of charges; anyone can be charged with a firearm or weapons violation. Such a charge does not need to foreclose one’s future. Mark Anthony Law will be a zealous advocate to shield you and fight for you against any false allegations.
Others have also faced seemingly insurmountable odds and overcame false allegations. Joseph Smith, the founder of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, was arrested dozens of times. He was even arrested six times on one day!
Brigham Young described the legal persecution experienced by Joseph Smith as so: “He never broke a law, yet to my certain knowledge he was a defendant in 46 lawsuits.”
