Six years ago Pompey visited New Jersey and brought his legally owned handgun with him from Virginia. During the course of the night, one of Pompey’s friends got involved in a fight, retrieved the gun, and “carried it into a confrontation with police.” Police arrested Pompey’s friend then arrested Pompey, as well, for having brought an unregistered handgun into the state.

Dumbass. His real offense was failure to secure his gun against being taken by his idiot friend, plus being stupid enough to associate with a guy who would bring a gun to a "police confrontation".

That said, unless there are issues we are not being told, he does not deserve prison.
