The short version is that the D.C. Metropolitan Police Department warned NBC News that it could not possess an actual high-capacity magazine, but NBC News went ahead and did it anyway. The MPD recommended a warrant for Gregory’s arrest, but that request was nixed by the D.C. Attorney General Irvin Nathan because — my paraphrase — Gregory was just too nice a guy and had no other criminal intent.
If I were someone jailed for possession of the same kind of mag, I'd be seeing if I could find a lawyer who wanted to go after the AG for this kind of selective prosecution. "So, AG Nathan, you refused to issue a warrant for Mr. Gregory because he's too nice a guy and had no other criminal intent, but had no problem prosecuting my client, a nice guy/woman with (fill in exemplary background here)?"
Frigging disgusting, but what do we expect from people like Nathan in a shithole like DC?
