I went through this thread. Did not find the answer to "What was he charged with?"

So many of you hi-jacked the thread almost immediately and lost the purpose of reporting the so-called "police incident".

What was he charged with and Why?

I got lucky on my googling:

The chief said officers were familiar with the teen, who faces charges of being under the age of 21 while in possession of a firearm, and altering the gun’s serial number.

It sounds like this kid is well on his way to a future behind bars - I have a friend who has a kid who was like that. He thought he was a tough guy and thought he wanted to be all 'hood and gangsta, only he was never really smart enough to pull any of it off, and he started getting in more serious trouble before he ever turned 18. At this point he's 25, he's spent a few short stints in the clink, and he's got nearly two full pages dedicated to him in Maryland Judiciary Case Search.

Didn't a Circuit Court Judge in Texas rule that requiring a serial number on a firearm was unconstitutional because it did not pass the Bruen tests?

From the article, the serial number was there just covered with some type of black glue. Was that glue put there intentionally?
I really hate pedantic "male bovine feces".

Doesn't affect cases in Maryland.

What was he charged with?

Sleeping with an “assault weapon”

Whatever happened to "Love is love?"

I hope I am never in the situation that mother was in. Hopefully she tried to reason with her son before getting the police involved.

What are the odds that incarceration will get a 15 year old to change direction vs just push him down an "undesirable" path?
