“As a result of the outstanding investigation conducted by agents of the ATF, the defendant has been brought to justice and his extensive collection of dangerous weapons and ammunition – including untraceable ghost guns –- no longer pose a threat to the safety of our community,” stated Acting United States Attorney Kasulis.
