Meet the Press host won't be charged for possessing illegal ammunition clip
Quote:
n a letter to NBC, whichThe Washington Postreported, D.C. Attorney General Irvin Nathan wrote that although the magazine "meets the definition" of the criminal statute, prosecuting him "would not promote public safety in the District of Columbia nor serve the best interests of the people of the District to whom this office owes its trust."But Nathan did say that Gregory could have used other methods to make his point.D.C. police forwarded their investigation to Nathan three days ago, but it has not been made public.Possessing an ammunition magazine that can hold 10 or more rounds, even if empty, is a misdemeanor in D.C. Conviction can result in a $1,000 fine or up to a year in jail.
