Wait I've been busy... they only charged him with second degree? Not first? That seems kinda hilariously cowardly by NYC. Surely they aren't scared a jury won't convict for first degree?
I looked up why they don't charge for first degree. It seems odd, but I assume Forbes isn't just making it up

Also the charges for the gun stuff are absolutely insane (the YEARS of prison as punishment is what I mean. Not like oh anyone should just have suppressed handguns all the time). I'm relatively certain the gun he used is legal except the suppressor. I haven't looked into Gun Law ™️ in a long time though. But people used to jerk off about making their own AR15s at home which was (is?) fully legal. It might be different for handguns... although one would be correct to ask "so making a smaller caliber, shittier gun is illegal but a higher caliber, higher capacity to kill weapon like a rifle is fine???" Welcome to 'murica. Here's your gun. Aaaannnnd you committed a crime. Oops! Such a stupid country
