Can you get a search warrant on hearsay?

Can you get a search warrant on hearsay?

All search warrants are based on hearsay as they only require a signed affidavit and not physical showing of evidence, but with that minutae set aside, yeah, you can.

Seeing that magazine there suggests they might have missed one.

 

[Nick Fury]

Legal in most any state...

No reason why it was illegally owned. Didn't the AG's office in one of the lawsuits say that technically you don't have to have an FID or LTC to have a gun in your residence?(I think I mentioned it in another post a while back but forget what someone said, lack of sleep from the kids lol)

See nothing, say nothing.

 

[MAGA99]

I totally disagree with arresting someone just ‘cause guns’
However, anyone that keeps ammo in a tiny pill bottle must be an a**h***.

I was also taught this. Maybe prohibited?

They are working on impeachment without facts or an investigation so.......


YES.

No...that magazine is for the high capacity revolver.

Nope. Look closely, Its a Crippled capacity 10 rd revolver mag. So its a mass compliant illegal mag.

The first thing that comes to my mind is whether you really can impose a criminal penalty for the unlicensed exercise of a constitutionally enumerated right. We have, in the picture, a revolver and a pump action shotgun. There's no AWB, high-capacity magazine issue. The guns were not 'carried' or possessed outside the home, so that issue is dead. Assuming that the person is not a prohibited one or that there's no other 'hair' on this, is is reasonalbe to have a criminal rather than a civil penalty.

If there's not more here, I expect this to go away one way or another. The Commonwealth will not try to send this guy to jail and risk having the question escalated.

Good work aside from missing a pistol.

Good work? Horrible details and no name(to see if prior arrests). Someone was arrested for guns "who shouldn't have owned them". Based on what?

You don’t know about @Woodsy?

I do but I thought the posts usually had a little more detail first

Illegal possession. What part of illegal did you not get? And No I don’t have that sticker on my vehicles, my guess is you have several

Illegal possession why? It doesn't say he was a PP. And as I said, pretty sure Maura argued that we could own a gun at home without a license. So why are you bouncing on the big blue do of dils without any more info than "illegal"? Was it just because he did not in fact have an LTC or FID meaning Maura lied about it in court(which we all know to be true)? Or was he a PP?

I trust they will release the details why it was an illegal possession. There are 10 million arrests a year, they know what they are doing. Sure there are a few hiccups, shit happens.

they're called preppers now.

Prepping for what, loading half a magazine?? Amateur! Everyone knows, pull bottles are for drugs (legal and otherwise) ammo cans are for ammo!

10 million entries into the national FBI fingerprint-based criminal records system. 10 million lives affected, unless you are a Hollywood superstar or are fortunate enough to live on a multi-million-dollar inheritance and do not have to worry about employers doing background checks.

You can impeach a president on hearsay, so if say yes, you can now.

Exactly. If there is nothing else going on, if it was me, I’d demand a trial! And right now!

 

[looser38]

Maybe by " illegally" possessed, they meant, someone saw, or knew that the guns were MA illegally being stored, you know, not in a safe, no trigger locks, etc.
IDK, just a thought.
BTW, why no mention of the person's name?

Worst juror ever.

Not really, I’m just not running around whining that the police are against me. How about don’t break the law to start and go from there
