UTICA, N.Y. -- A homeowner who shot and killed two intruders who police said were burglarizing his home in May has been cleared of any crime, his lawyer said today.

Ronald Stolarczyk, 64, had been facing a charge of criminal possession of a firearm, a felony, after he shot and killed Patricia Talerico and Nicholas Talerico as they were breaking into his Deerfield home. The homeowner’s handgun wasn’t registered as required by state law, authorities said.

The charge against Stolarczyk was dropped in Deerfield town court Monday night after the Oneida County District Attorney’s office made a motion to dismiss the charge and the judge agreed, Mark Wolber, Stolarczyk’s lawyer, told Syracuse.com | The Post Standard today.

Wolber said he has asked from the outset that the charge be dropped “in the interest of justice” and had numerous conferences with the DA’s office on the subject.

Today, Stolarczyk is “very relieved,” Wolber said. “He’s not a very emotional person, but is very happy this is over with.”

Patricia Anne Talerico, 57, and Nicholas A. Talerico, 27, of Utica - an aunt and her nephew - were burglarizing the home at 6110 Walker Road in Deerfield when they were shot by the homeowner, according to New York State Police.

"The right to own a gun is granted secured by the U S Constitution and is the law in every state. The right to bear arms shall not be infringed. Registration is an infringement."

Fixed it. wink, wink.

Personally I think registration is nothing more that a POLL TAX (which has been found unconstitutional.) Registration will always be the first step, before they confiscate.

From The Smith & Wesson School of Etiquette.

Remember the tradition of former slave and great American orator Frederick Douglass who said, "A man's rights rest in three boxes: the ballot box, the jury box, and the cartridge box."

When The Ballot Box No Longer Counts, The Ammunition Box Does. (What's In Your Ammo Box?)

We use 43 muscles to frown, 17 to smile, and 2 to pull a trigger. I'm lazy and I'm tired of smiling.

Over 300 million guns and over 1 trillion rounds of ammo, 535 pricks are pushing the buttons of 300 million or more free gun owning people. --I don't like the odds for those pricks.

A rifle transforms one from subject to Citizen

There is no justification for the public servant police to be more heavily armed than the law-abiding public they serve ... unless the government's intention is to be more powerful than the people.

Trust in God, but empty (half of) the clip / magazine. Why, because the perp might not be alone. They usually run in two's.

A gun in hand is better than a cop on the phone.

It takes a gun to feed a village.

Free people own guns. Slaves don't!!!

Peace is that brief glorious moment in history, when everybody stands around reloading.

A gun is like a parachute. If you need one, and don't have one, you'll never need one again.

Nice to know that there are some out there that have a clue and, at the end of the day, better late than never with regards to the charges being dropped.
