ATF Gun Licensing Director Russell Vanderwerf Arrested

Federal gun regulator accused of damaging Metairie hotel room

He serves as the director of industry operations for ATF's Houston field office. The industry operations division is the regulatory arm of the agency, responsible for overseeing the inspection of all federal gun and explosives licensees, said ATF spokesman Drew Wade. He confirmed that Vanderwerf was in the New Orleans area on official business.

Sounds like he wanted someone to do something with his weapon.

I'm willing to bet that every FFL and license holder that this guy oversaw can look forward to an extra special visit by ATF agent's who'll be looking for any kind of wrongdoing.

 

[CrossFrire]

Read thru the comments. Seems like the guy posted an ad on Craig's List!

Was there anything in the hotel's rules banning glory holes?

Not a clue, but they certainly have rules against dismantling fire protection systems .
