I don’t have a lot of details, but I will post them when I do – but…

The particular guy I heard about was on parole for an ivoluntary manslaughter beef (an auto accident that occured years ago when his friend died…and no, he wasn’t drinking), anyway, the kid has been on the straight and narrow since released from a three year sentence. I guess the cops searched his apartment and found two toy guns. These toys were the nerf or some knock off brand…not airsoft, or pellet even.

I will obviously post specifics when I get them.
