TEXAS JUDGE GETS PRISON FOR ILLEGAL ARMS TRADING

[WestVirginiaRebel]

Breitbart:

In a case that has moved at near “light speed” through the Federal justice system, former Williamson County Court-at-Law Judge Timothy Wright has been sentenced to 18 months in Federal Prison for illegal arms trading. His transactions included some sales to illegal aliens.

 

Federal prosecutors say that between June, 2014, and March of this year that Wright sold more than 60 pistols, without a federal license, and some of those guns were sold to felons, and other firearms ended up in Mexico, as previously reported by Breitbart Texas on April 11.

 

Wrights home in Georgetown was raided in late March, he was arrested about a week later, spent a night in jail in Austin, and then plead guilty in federal court in May. He then resigned from the bench in Williamson County, saying that “No one is above the law, especially judges.”

 

“While sworn to uphold the law, Judge Timothy Wright repeatedly violated federal laws governing the sale of firearms,” according to U.S. Attorney Richard Durbin Jr. in a Department of Justice (DOJ) statement obtained by Breitbart Texas. “He falsified official firearms records to hide the true identity of the real buyer and then lied to federal investigators about his crimes. These are serious crimes for which he has been held accountable.”

With a record like that, he should have gone to work for Eric Holder...
