    If his house got searched based off his drug dealing, his defense attorney would be able to argue there’s no proof which adult owns the gun in the kid’s closet. He put his kids in physical danger in a failed attempt to reduce his legal danger.

      Nah, he can’t have a gun in his house, full stop. Ownership does not come into play.

      Had a buddy on parole go back in because his parole officer found his friend’s, quickly hidden, gun in the couch cushions.

      Now this guy sounds dumb enough to believe “it’s my son’s” would fly, but it won’t.
