STRAW PURCHASING OF FIREARMS; 18 U.S.C. § 932

Straw Purchasing of Firearms, Title 18 U.S.C. § 932, is a new statute passed in 2022 that has received considerable attention from state and federal law enforcement and prosecutors alike. Joint task forces have been set up across the country, and specifically along the Southern Texas border, to target individuals who are allegedly purchasing firearms for another individual. Not only does this offense carry serious consequences on its own, but federal prosecutors will often insist on applying sentencing enhancements on top of the underlying charge.

If you are stopped and questioned by law enforcement regarding the purchase of a firearm or multiple firearms, it is important to immediately seek representation. Goldstein & Orr has been successful in getting ahead of these charges and put you in a position that preserves your Fifth Amendment right to remain silent and Sixth Amendment right to assistance of counsel. Our San Antonio criminal defense attorneys are adept at fighting these charges by focusing on the investigation conducted by law enforcement and challenging it on a variety of constitutional bases. If you or a loved one is under investigation or believes they may be a person of interest in straw purchasing of firearms, call Goldstein & Orr today at (210) 226-1463
