What a crumb.

I met this guy once.

BTW, the article does not mention his DUI conviction or the drugs missing from the evidence locker.

Sounds like a Grade-B "I am the law" civil servant. Grade-B because he got caught. (no offense to the honest LEO's here)

 

[BBQ.Uncle]

He'll be popular with the other cons.

 

[appraiser]

for the sake of conversation, he sold department firearms, so theft by conversion, or flat out larceny of a firearm would apply here if they wanted to charge him properly.

Isn't larceny of a firearm a federal charge that he could have been hit with?

Yes. A very serious charge. Notice I share the same shocked face as Derek.

I'm just looking forward to his release - we've been looking for a Manny of his caliber for years

True but all the dirt on Gleason and other Holland town officials can be found on this blog.

A few weeks back there was an article in the Walpole Times about a patrolman who stole $10K and he was allowed to retire. The next weeks paper had apologists in the LTTE section saying how he was misunderstood.......

WTF Over? This is just effed up in so many ways. Sorry about the hijack.

You or I would have gotten 10 years for that, guaranteed.

Does anyone know if this guy sold to a prohibited person or persons???

I thought it said to dealers?

 

[terraformer]

I thought it said to dealers?

It also said "...and private parties". The latter explains why the feds are looking at him. I want to know if those private parties are prohibited or not.

 

[Sparkey]

I grew up in Holland this guy issued me my Ltc .
