Did his wife rat him out?
I thought having a undocumented handgun in your home was a misdemeanor?

Quoted:
Link NORTH GREENBUSH — A town man was charged with three felonies for gun possession, including one for owning a gun magazine that contained 11 rounds, which is illegal under New York's SAFE Act. Town police on Monday arrested Mark R. Cassidy, 55, after responding to a domestic incident at his home and allegedly finding two loaded handguns — a .357 Magnum revolver and .40 caliber handgun with a 11-round magazine, Chief Robert Durivage said Tuesday. Cassidy did not possess a permit to own a pistol in New York and the guns were not registered, police said. The maximum capacity for a detachable magazine in New York under the SAFE Act is seven. Cassidy was charged with two counts of criminal possession of a firearm, a felony, for not having a permit, and criminal possession of a weapon, a felony, for the magazine, according to police. Cassidy did not threaten anyone with the guns, Durivage said. He said the firearms were found in a garbage can. An investigation revealed both guns and the ammunition were purchased in another state and brought to New York, Durivage said. Cassidy was arraigned Monday before Town Justice Megan Miner-Malone and released. He is due to reappear in Town Court on Aug. 6. |

Once again the misdemeanor gets top billing over the felony. We've got to make Andy look good! Way to go as usual Times Union.
"Cassidy was charged with two counts of criminal possession of a firearm, a felony, for not having a permit, and criminal possession of a weapon, a felony, for the magazine, according to police." Huh? |

Does your husband have any guns in the house? Yes, he has a couple of handguns. (Police call in and learn there is no permit) Ma'am, we don't believe your husband has a permit for the guns. For your safety, do you mind if we look for them? Oh please officer, could you please? One potential scenario, who knows? |

Or is this one of those "not complete" stories the media is so good at producing? If the wife gave permission they are free to search, assuming it is her residence as well. Here's a cool question. If consent to search is required and one resident says yes and another co-equal tenant says no, we know that consent is not valid and there can be no consent-based search. However, one tenant can consent in the absence of a co-tenant. What is the result when the refusing co-tenant is MADE to be absent involuntarily by the people seeking consent? In any event, the domestic thing usually ends up with a litany of arguments that usually go like this: -Cop: Do you mind if we have a look around? Homeowner:"Yes, I mind." -He's being arrested for a crime committed in the house, so I'm entitled to do a protective sweep. "We live here alone, no one else is here." -He's being arrested for a crime committed in the house, so the house is a crime scene and you have to let me in. "You can't come in." -If you don't let me in I'm going to come back with a warrant. "OK." -If you don't let me in I'm waiting here while we phone for a warrant and I'll make sure to rip your house apart. "Good luck with that." -Consent to searching the house or I'm going to arrest you for fighting with your husband. Even though I know you didn't do anything wrong I can change my mind about that. Eventually most people just give in. Fortunately if it gets to step 5 or so anything they subsequently find is probably at least in question... |

Every time I read more than two lines of NYS PL section 265.00 I start to feel the bile rise into the back of my mouth. I wonder if this would factor in....
S 265.03 Criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree. A person is guilty of criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree when: (3) such person possesses any loaded firearm. Such possession shall not, except as provided in subdivision one or seven of section 265.02 of this article, constitute a violation of this subdivision if such possession takes place in such person's home or place of business. Criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree is a class C felony. |

Simply possessing handguns without any sort of permit or license is legal in the nearly all of the rest of the country. We should be fighting for this guy's rights just as hard as we fight against the SAFE Act.

No. Heller allowed for a permitting system to be in place, the issue was DC in theory issued permits, but in practice never did. In essence, outright banning. There are a couple hundred thousand people at least who have NYS pistol permits. Apples and oranges. I do agree its BS that you need a permit to possess a handgun in your home, but it is the aw, and permits for premise possession will pretty much be issued as long as you are not a prohibited person. |
