splash Posted September 15, 2017 at 04:05 PM Share Posted September 15, 2017 at 04:05 PM The report says he had CCL but no FOID card. The report is not clear whether he have a FOID card and didt not bring it or no FOID card at all. How is it even possible to have a CCL without FOID card?

Molly B. Posted September 15, 2017 at 04:24 PM Share Posted September 15, 2017 at 04:24 PM Possible the CCL was not an IL license? You can get one of those without a FOID card. Or police just confused about not needing to carry the FOID while carrying the CC license. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
04 Cobra Posted September 15, 2017 at 04:45 PM Share Posted September 15, 2017 at 04:45 PM If there is any truth to this story and he had a valid CCL.. don't they have the same #? How do you get one without the other? The charges don't make any sense? This story stinks!!!! An Uber driver who strayed across a center line in Lakeview was found to be carrying two guns, 59 rounds of ammunition As officers pulled a fully-loaded .357 revolver from Taylor’s waistband, a zip lock bag containing suspect cannabis fell to the ground...... " OF COURSE IS DID" around 1:45 a.m.saw a “green leafy substance” on his clothing, prosecutors said. " Maybe he had a sandwich?" fully-loaded .357 revolver ( 5-6 rounds total) 9-millimeter handgun loaded with 15 live rounds ( 15-16 rounds total) , fully-loaded 31-round magazine.... Given the benefit of the doubt thats 53 rounds not 59 , where are the 6 missing rounds? digital scale; 200 small clear blue zip lock bags...... Never mentions how much dope IF ANY was found to support manufacture and delivery! Any Attorney that can walk and chew gum will see him clear of this.

tkroenlein Posted September 15, 2017 at 07:02 PM Share Posted September 15, 2017 at 07:02 PM I'm guessing they stuck the CC charge on since it could be a holding charge, but the SA will drop that since it can't apply to a non licensee.

InterestedBystander Posted September 15, 2017 at 07:05 PM Share Posted September 15, 2017 at 07:05 PM According to article they also got him with "possessing a high capacity magazine". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tseeker Posted September 15, 2017 at 08:41 PM Share Posted September 15, 2017 at 08:41 PM Sounds like typical police procedure. Throw a half dozen charges at them and maybe one or two will stick... Sent from my SM-N900P using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tolak Posted September 15, 2017 at 10:09 PM Share Posted September 15, 2017 at 10:09 PM It seems as of late the media refers to cartridges as live rounds. Does anyone put dead rounds in a firearm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-N900P using TapatalkThey throw a ton of charges at em because each thing is an individual crime. Then, under the "one act, one crime" rule, the majority get tossed because one cannot be prosecuted for, say, DUI as well as DUI over 0.08 as well as aggravated DUI (just an example). It's SOP to charge for every offense, then plea it down to absolutely nothing. Well, around here it is. Seen people plead down from a dozen Class X felonies to a Class 4 and get probation but lately the feds (out of Central District) have been picking people up for stuff like meth and felon in possession. I'd like to think it's because they're dealing with repeat offenders and, well, the one guy who was picked up by the US Attorney was arrested for felon in possession while on parole for felon in possession (after he was paroled for felon in possession), each time paroled 1/3 of his way through his sentence. Honestly, a pot delivery boy caught carrying ought to be picked up by the feds. That's...bad. Sent from my VS987 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only mag case I can think of was a guy who they went after on a drug warrant years back but they didn't find anything illegal at his house outside of some "high capacity" magazines. It was an FU Charge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Multiple charges help to keep the arresting officer's butt covered and gives the DA more avenues to gain a possible conviction.

Raw Power Posted September 20, 2017 at 11:24 PM Share Posted September 20, 2017 at 11:24 PM I'd want to see the body cam footage on this if I were his lawyer.He was driving around with pot visibly on his shirt? Are we talking cheeto crumbs worth, several ounces, or what? Sounds like a fish story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
