We're the Only Ones With High Respect for the Law Enough

A former police officer accused of illegally selling hundreds of guns has been sentenced to 10 years in federal prison.

Mark Nelson, 35, his wife and two other family members each pleaded guilty in August to one count of making a false statement in the acquisition of a firearm. He received the maximum sentence Tuesday from U.S. District Judge Edmund Sargus Jr.

“I’ve always had high respect for the law,” Nelson said.

Let's see, he "put 501 guns on the streets" but "pleaded guilty...to one count of making a false statement in the acquisition of a firearm."

Not a bad trade ratio.
