OK this did NOT happen to me.
But my friend's boyfriend got pulled over in Lynwood, IL with a loaded gun in the car. He has a valid Indiana license, was an idiot and crossed the state line with the gun, took it off his belt and slipped it, loaded, under the front seat of the car. Police searched the car, obviously found the gun.
Anyone know if there is any chance that he not end up with a felony on his record? I think he's screwed. Especially because of where he got caught. If he had been caught downstate then I think there would be a probably plea-bargain but not sure that will happen in the anti-gun Chicagoland area.
Anyone know of a GOOD defense attorney who practices in southern Cook County?
