Legal Problems


Many of you were as shocked as I was to hear that an elementary school student had brought a loaded gun to Emery Elementary school in Eckington. The mother was charged with the gun violation, which now seems to be in jeopardy. Check out the Washington Post article

The understatement of the week is from the judge in the case; "Even as he ruled in Williams's favor, Goodbread had little good to say about her actions, calling her conduct "stupid and potentially tragic."

I understand that the law is the law, and having technicalities are there to protect all of us, but this seems to be crazy. Hopefully, there will be a just outcome to this case, one that wont encourage people to violate the gun laws in DC, and endanger the kids of our schools.
