It's a Fashion Accessory!

More proof that EM isn't even a mild deterrent to continuing criminal activity:

  • A Chicago man was charged Wednesday with illegally possessing a machine gun after allegedly showing up to what he believed was a vehicle repossession job, only to find himself face-to-face with undercover federal agents, court records show.

    Edwin Moreno, 27, also known as “AK,” is accused of possessing a Glock .45-caliber pistol fitted with a machine gun conversion device (MCD) — a device that transforms a semi-automatic handgun into a fully automatic weapon capable of firing multiple rounds with a single trigger pull, according to a federal criminal complaint. Moreno and an unidentified accomplice were allegedly recruited by ATF agents posing as repo men needing armed security. Neither man knew the purported tow operators were actually federal agents, the complaint states.

    What made the encounter all the more striking, according to the complaint, was what happened when the two men were asked how long they could work: both Moreno and his buddy allegedly pulled up their pant legs to reveal electronic monitoring ankle bracelets and then made a point of saying they needed to be back at their respective homes by 9:45 p.m.

We're surprised that ankle monitors don't come with pre-printed tags that post "Hours of Operation" so that your stupider criminals can check the info against their cell phones so they don't miss the deadlines.

I’ve never met a more coward of a LT in MM out of 006 afternoons. I did some digging and saw he ratted on a PO when he was a Sgt. What a disgrace to the uniform. Do everyone a favor and retire. Good luck 006 with this never did anything LT

Typical Chicago criminal interacting with out of state federal agents. I’ll bet the Feds were like Chicago has some of the dumbest criminals. To bad Chicago Police have some of the dumbest policies that aide the criminals. All because Chicago has the dumbest leadership.

The liberals will say, "At least they were working!" As soon as the weapon was spotted they should have been blown away!

.45-caliber pistol fitted with a machine gun conversion device (MCD) The good news he's firing about 10 feet above what he wants to hit.

I’m amazed that ATF arrested an actual criminal offender as opposed to fucking with some poor Schumuck at a gun show.

Aren't the Crook County Courts now conducting the electronic monitoring because Tom Dart couldn't do the monitoring successfully. So, the Courts took over the EM program and continue to f@ck things up. Incompetence breeds incompetence. Crook County Judges are the best judges that money can buy.
BTW: what's the best way to remove the EM bracelets without injuring yourself. Asking for a friend who always wears the short sox. :-) :-)

Fashion accessory? Did the bracelet match his handbag and Glock?

If the new and improved exploding bracelets are not fatal, the medical costs will be millions of taxpayers for just one pop.
