Well... he said he never took it out of the house and apparently they couldn't prove otherwise?
Quote:
Before trial, Angelos was offered a plea bargain with a 16-year sentence, but he strongly denied carrying a gun outside his home during three alleged drug transactions. That testimony came from an informant "of some disreputable background," Mooney said.
A jury exonerated Angelos of two other gun charges but convicted him of twice wearing a gun in an ankle holster and once carrying it in a briefcase. Angelos maintained the guns never left his home, where he kept them in a safe.
