Wow they seized a lever and bolt action rifle along with a 22 pistol. Those guns are so old they were probably manufactured without serial numbers lol.

The addresses and names should be given out, put on blast for these types of crimes!
Lately, none of the crimes of notoriety that’s been reported, ever publish the perps names.
Certain crimes should give out needed info so as to warn the innocent, those at risk, their victims, unsuspecting neighborhood dwellers, along with the curious, and out and out inquiring minds just wanna know.

That’s called “punishment before trial or conviction.” Inquiring minds should realize that our justice system, while seriously flawed in so many other ways, at least tries not to do that.
