Anyone want to take bets?????? Check the dates!
My only concern is he has to respond to court Aug 11th while the "story" on GoFundMe is saying he was released without charges

The person in the original story is said to be a DC CCL holder. The linked article reports that Ahn spent four months in federal prison. Wouldn't that have negated his ability to get a DC CCL?

I got crap for saying this back in post 44. I would bet same guy. We know we can't believe the press. I bet the guy had no permit.

You did post it. I didn't see it my apologies. I just found out about it when I posted, I'm with you though!

The OP on Facebook was based on an allegedly first-hand account as told by the person who was arrested & who is a DC CCL holder. The WP article does not say that the Mr. Ahn holds a DC CCL, but does say he's a felon, which should disqualify him from being able to get a DC CCL, as I understand it. So those things stand in contrast between the original fb post & the WP article & lead me to believe these are different cases.

This smells like a scam. The police were mean to me, no other details offered, but please give me money? GTFO
FIFY
David Benowitz, Ahn’s attorney, said his client “did not violate the law,”
Either he had a permit or didn't. Maybe he had one and it was revoked.
There is no reason for secrecy about the Identity of the FB OP. None.

If the person who is the subject of the original fb post didn't want to be identified, wouldn't that be reason enough for the person to not be identified?
Also, I'm not sure why ppl continue to try & tie the Ahn article to that which was reported in the original fb post.
I'm honestly puzzled as to why any of this is an issue (or why my last post needed to be "fixed.")
Was there yesterday. Not there today. "Campaign Not Found"
So either GoFundMe yanked it, or the person that put it up. I am thinking the first option very likely.
But as other have mentioned and stated, I would like to know exactly what my money is supporting. And like other threads, if this is a slam dunk case an attorney would be more than happy to pick it up. So something to the story, and we are only running the rumor mill for now.

Someone mentioned that GFM doesn't do defense contributions, so maybe they did pull it.

Somewhere I recall reading "no recourse", so I was thinking OK, then why soliciting for money?

I'm betting you know who it is. The WaPo story and the FB incident read too different in my opinion. If the WaPo covered every illegal gun case, they'd need more ink.
We come to this thread looking for answers...
...ideally so we might learn and not do the same stupid sh1t ourselves...
Turns out the truth and the facts are still on the lam.
Damn hard to learn when you cannot divine the truth from the sea of information that exists.
Until/unless the truth is on scene, actionable knowledge cannot occur.
Given the AOR, I'm guessing 'no joy' on finding the truth any time soon, if at all.

I'd also like to know if the cased was dismissed with no charges, according to the OP, then why would they need a GoFundMe for future legal battles?
If you were arrested, falsely, and had a great case, it seems lawyers would be lining up to take 50% of your winning damages.

GoFundMe does not allow fund creations for legal defenses.
