Convicted felon charged with possession of firearm

“While investigating an unrelated theft complaint in my city, I came across a transaction in which the subject sold a revolver to a local shop. The subject caught my attention because I know he is a felon and cannot possess a firearm. While at the pawn shop, I requested the video as well as the contract in which the subject signed that he is the owner of the revolver which he brought himself to the pawn shop. The subject has now settled on this case and has been charged with the crime, awaiting sentencing. Thank you for this wonderful resource.”
