McCloskeys Indicted on Gun Charges From Standoff at St. Louis Mansion

Mark and Patricia McCloskey, the St. Louis couple charged in July with brandishing weapons at rioters who broke into their gated community, have been indicted by a grand jury. 

The McCloskey’s were indicted Tuesday on felony charges of unlawful use of a weapon and evidence tampering, according to their attorney Al Watkins, Fox News reports.

  1. Hey Kenny;

    And of course the leftie Soros funded hippie DA and prosecutor failed to charge all the assholes that broke in and trespassed and scared the crap and threatened them first....Its a warning to the rest of us to pay attention to local elections and local politics, it ain't all national.

  2. George Soreass is an direct enemy of our Country. The St Louis DA is a cancerous boil on our Country's ass.

  3. What I've read, and can't remember where that was, it is the state crime lab that performed the evidence tampering by reassembling the non-functional firearm into a functional firearm. If true it means all of the evidence touched by that lab is tainted, but it also means that woman is an idiot, threatening a crowd with a disabled weapon.

  4. Thought I'd read where the guvnah says he'll pardon them if convicted. We'll see...

  5. Does a pardoned felony conviction keep you from practicing law? That could have huge implications.

    1. Generally, only felony convictions involving "moral turpitude" prevent someone from practicing law. Different places interpret what constitutes "moral turpitude" differently, however.

  6. I take away something much more serious than what is happening to this couple. After the November election, things are likely to get pretty scary, and some very good people may be forced to defend themselves and their loved ones and their homes, with guns, to the point that the people they are forced to shoot are killed.
    What will happen to the law abiding citizens who are just defending themselves? I suspect that is the message that St. Louis is attempting to show, with this case.
    What they don't understand is that now that I am 60, a life sentence is not nearly as big of a deal, compared to watching my family, or myself, get beaten up with baseball bats, metal pipes, skateboards, etc. I don't have an AR or AK, but I have a shotgun that will shoot a rifled slug 100 yards with only a drop of less than 5". I wish I could say that I have other guns, but I think that I might have lost them in a boating accident last week. I will have to look into that sometime.

      It's not the life sentence that's the backbreaker, though that certainly hurts. It's the wrongful death civil suits following your conviction that will do more damage, as they bankrupt your immediate family.

    2. Damn, you had a boating accident too. 😂

  7. Pardon or not, "The process is the punishment."
