Unlawful possession of a concealable firearm

Miles, who had been hired "to make sure kids weren't in the hallway," was terminated immediately, Brice said. He was charged with unlawful possession of a concealable firearm, possessing a dangerous weapon on school property and attempting to sell a firearm, according to court records.

This is not commentary on my part....I'm trying to see if I'm missing something that's not part of the 4-203 language.

All the other charges aside and not withstanding the likelihood that the Sun effed up reporting the charges, can anyone point me to the language that says that makes "possession of a concealable firearm" an offense.

Section 4-203 only uses the word "handgun" with reference to prohibitions on the wearing, carrying or transport of a vehicle.

It's troubling to see the language corrupted in the list of charges because it doesn't say "concealed", it says "concealable" and that opens a huge can of worms.

Then again....the Sun probably screwed it up.

Approached by Miles about buying the gun, the school officer notified his superiors and city police, Brice said. The agencies organized a "controlled buy" on a day that students were not in school. Miles was arrested as soon as he and the officer made the swap, Brice said.

"The school police officer responded appropriately, and we worked together with police for a good thing," Brice said. "No one wants illegal guns on the street."

not the brightest bulb.

Let himself get suckered into worse charges by taking the gun onto school property.

 

[paintballg36fun]

agreed, is this part of the law?
"unlawful possession of a concealable firearm"

Oh, don't get me wrong. He's a dirtbag of the first order and he's definitely guilty of that charge.

My point is the "concealable" thing mentioned in the article. I get very uneasy with imprecise language when it comes to charges.

Survey says.... 100%!!! DING-DING-DING!!!!

It's the Baltimore Sun - you don't have to be a good reporter to work for them, just a loyal Democrat.

I'd chalk that up to being the case if the Judicial Case Search stuff showed his information and said otherwise, but all of the details for his criminal history are blank.

There's nothing in 4-203 that speaks to possession of a concealable handgun. Shocking that the Sun would get this wrong, I know, but we'll have to move on at some point.

But they also use "firearm" not "handgun".

 

[knownalien]

perhaps it was some type of homemade device. the article says he tried to sell it?

Thanks. It truthfully wasn't there earlier, along with all of his other criminal cases.

So....predictably, the Sun is just making crap up.

The Sun writer is on crack and here is why "...a temporary employee at the prestigious public high school..." There are no prestigious city public schools.

 

[CharlieFoxtrot]

There is no offense of "unlawful possession of a concealable firearm" anywhere in Maryland law.

This should clear things up...

It's a new paradigme looking forward...

I was worried it was some scary City statute. I'm relieved to see it was just the infotainment I've come to expect.

The Sun writer is on crack and here is why "...a temporary employee at the prestigious public high school..." There are no prestigious city public schools.

From what I've read, it seems to me that there are two public schools in Baltimore that fit that label.

Maybe it was an SBR or SBS?
