..Charles….very good police work….getting both felons and their guns off the street.What surprises me is the way our court system works,when I checked the Inyo County arrest and inmates page,they’re still in jail and not OR’ed or bailed out the next day.
Good police work. Glad to know these people were caught and they’re off the streets.
Three bags of garbage who should be buried at the landfill, if convicted.
