Posession of a firearm in commission of a crime (and threatening to commit murder is most certainly a crime) is a felony. If he's already a felon, his mere posession of the firearm (and yes, a bb gun IS a firearm) is a federal offense. I doubt he got the weapon legally, as when you're purchasing a bb gun you still have to fill out the BATF paperwork for the NIC check, so that also adds to the charges. If he did get the weapon from a firearms retailer (highly doubtful) then he should also be prosecuted for filing a false statement, as the paperwork clearly asks several questions that he would have had to lie on to purchase it from a retailer.

Properly prosecuted, buh bye, scum. I hope he likes his new cellmate.
Thank you for saying these things! I agree with what you have stated. Amy Beth was told last night that because he was already a felon that like you said, this is now a federal crime! Please GOD, let the system work for us this time!!!
