white kid gets rocked selling 4 guns for what he paid for them. did he knowingly sell them to prohibited persons?
meanwhile you have the girlfriends of various gang bangers walking scott free. Capuzzi told Cimabue his actions were abhorrent and that he had no excuse. “Anybody that has an eighth-grade education in this day and age knows that you don’t buy guns and transfer them,” he said. “Everybody knows that. It’s common knowledge.” I see nothing in the article that indicates he broke any laws. |

Hanosek and Trooper Mark Gibble interviewed Cimabue at his home in January 2016 and the defendant admitted to buying a .40 caliber Smith and Wesson firearm for $300 from Targetmaster in Chadds Ford on March 31, 2014, which he said he later sold for the same amount to a Glen Mills man.
The affidavit notes firearms purchasers must sign a form at the time of sale indicating they will be the sole owner of the firearm. Cimabue also admitted to buying four other weapons, including an AK-47 rifle from Targetmaster Mar. 24, 2014, for $600, which he later sold for $600 to a person in Glen Mills. He bought another AK 47 from Targetmaster April 1, 2014, which he also sold to a Philadelphia man, as well as two .40 caliber Smith and Wesson pistols on April 30, 2014. Cimabue purchased a fifth .40 caliber Smith and Wesson from Double Action on June 25, 2014, according to the affidavit. The affidavit indicates at least four of the sales took place at Cimabue’s home. View Quote |

"Entered a plea"
He might not have broken any actual law, but with that many fast turn-arounds, it was looking like they could sway a jury to more than he was sentenced for. He chose to plead guilty. His own fault if he was sure he didn't break an actual law. |

They claim he was doing straw purchases. The whole bit about selling the guns to pay his bills: the judge's argument isn't good frankly. People sell guns and all sorts of stuff to pay their bills. Often they take a loss on stuff. View Quote "Dawson added Cimabue told investigators he was living paycheck to paycheck but dumped $2,500 on guns within a period of a few weeks." That seems fishy as hell. I don't know anyone that spends $2,500 on guns and within the same month has to sell them to pay bills. I'm betting he was selling for a profit, but his attorney told him nobody can prove it. At the very least, isn't buying multiple similar guns and repeatedly selling them within a month indicative of a straw man purchase? I understand the argument that I bought one, tried it out, didn't like it, so I sold it, but that doesn't seem to fit here. |

Maybe he sold them to a fed? a local LEO? maybe it was a sting?
I've only sold once and it was locally. Both of us shown a permit and signed a bill of sale. |

They're saying he violated some stupid "Brad fox law" so it probably something like you can't buy and sell x amt of guns in x amt of months.
ETA- nope, that law just imposes mandatory minimums on straw purchasers, from what I can tell. |

FTF handgun sales here are illegal, that's what they got him on. They must go through a dealer, or if you have gun friendly police, they can do the background check for you. |

The rifles come into play too, if they were transferred very shortly after the guy bought them. Whether we agree with it or not, the guy was showing the classic signs of straw purchasing.

People keep calling this guy a "kid".
That doesnt work work certain other people, it shouldn't work for this guy either. ARFCOM double standard I guess. |

Hard to pay the bills when you're supposedly buying and selling at the same price. |

Another victim of BRD OCD bought guns he couldn't afford had to sell to pay bills...

They make you sign an affadavit that you have to keep a gun if you buy it in PA?

If this GUY was black, 99% of the members in here defending him would be asking for the maximum punishment... It's disgusting really.
From the article its pretty clear he was buying guns for people who couldn't buy them for themselves. Whether or not that's the case, I'm sure no one in this thread will ever really know. |

However, Kennedy went liberal and screwed us on that one, 5-4 in the antigunner's favor. (For those who may not remember, it was a former LEO who sold a blue label glock to his uncle (non-prohibited buyer) and got canned for it) Who knows though, we've got people here speculating that Trump will do away with the NFA, GCA and whatnot. |

It's completely obvious that the guy was doing straw purchases for profit. You don't want to say so because you don't like the law. That's a childish opinion to have. That's the sort of thing you see on the DU site, where all news stories are "re-imagined" to make them fit a particular political viewpoint. On the DU site, when some black thug gets blown down by the police, the thug get re-imagined into a gentle giant or an honor student because liberals always have to take the side of the barbarian. You guys do the same thing, you take the side of some hillbilly gun runner or greasy straw purchaser and give him a make-over into Paul Revere. No matter what kind of country we have, there are always going to be criminals. Since guns are used as crime tools, the general public is always going to want some kind of control on gun sales. The more crime there is, they more they are going to clamor for more restrictive laws. When you purposely violate these gun laws, a stony-faced jury is going to send you to jail. That jury would be sympathetic to you if you used a legally owned gun to stop a crime, but they are not sympathetic to people engaged in purposely breaking gun laws. That's the reality that we live in and it's never ever going to change. The public does not like criminals, even the criminals that you feel obligated to support like a DU moron because of your personal politics. |

Shittiest article I've ever seen. Lists dates every gun was bought. Lists no dates the guns were sold. No mention of who they were sold to.
Dawson added Cimabue told investigators he was living paycheck to paycheck but dumped $2,500 on guns within a period of a few weeks. He said the defendant easily could have been facing multiple mandatory sentences. View Quote Makes perfect sense. Broke dude gets tax return. Blows it. Then is broke again and needs money. Fuck PA. |
