Here is an order on Defendant's Motion to Suppress that might be interesting.

Charles,
Being a total ignoramus when reading that kind of stuff, didn't it all come down to the defendant not accomplishing anything in his motions?

Correct. The interesting part is the recitation of the facts, especially those as to when and how the money and gun was transferred.

Good thing I haven't mailed off my letter yet. I wanted to get more facts before pleading on someone else's behalf and I'm glad I did. It would seem that CB Copeland has extremely low I.Q. for participating in an obviously straw purchase and that they were not busted for selling to an illegal alien with a valid I.D., but for a straw purchase. The guy with the valid I.D. was NOT the guy really buying the gun.

Why do I think that he has a low I.Q.? Why the heck would anyone who has been arrested by BATF and has a lawyer CALL the BATF directly (without a lawyer) to ask for his guns back? Isn't it obvious that he's NEVER getting his guns back? Now, because of this joker, Austin has no gun show (or so I heard. I'm not sure because I don't live in Austin). A few bad apples ruin it for everyone. Ugh.

I said that on another forum when I posted the affidavit
And was flamed for it.

Yeah, other forums are not as well managed as this one. I hate flame wars. I like open discussion and debate. That's why this is such a great forum because we have a great bunch here.

Anyways, why would anyone flame you? You presented the facts and from that the truth should be self-evident.

Austin has a gun show. It's been moved from its previous location. The reasons for that are murky, but I don't think it was solely because of the Copeland incident. It does appear that Saxet no longer has shows in Austin. As Alice Tripp points out (in the Copeland incident link above), Saxet left Austin for reasons other than law enforcement or city of Austin coercion.

In October 2009, Saxet quit the North Austin site after problems with building management, not with the property owners and not with local law enforcement or the city of Austin. Saxet always expected to return.
