SBarry:
Someone get a phone number or email address for the county or city attorney, offices. Time for a NFOA firemission to bombard them with our opinion on his arrest. If that does no good, maybe a collection for his defense.

Dtrain323i:
Was he in the parking lot or in the street?

If Mr. Mell is telling the truth about all of this, he should not have been arrested at all.

From the NE state statutes:
28-1204.04 Unlawful possession of a firearm on school grounds; penalty; exceptions; confiscation of certain firearms; disposition.  (1) Any person who possesses a firearm in a school, on school grounds, in a school-owned vehicle, or at a school-sponsored activity or athletic event shall be guilty of the offense of unlawful possession of a firearm on school grounds. Unlawful possession of a firearm on school grounds is a Class II misdemeanor. This subsection shall not apply to (a) the issuance of firearms to or possession by members of the armed forces of the United States, active or reserve, National Guard of this state, or Reserve Officers Training Corps or peace officers or other duly authorized law enforcement officers when on duty or training, (b) firearms which may lawfully be possessed by the person receiving instruction, for instruction under the immediate supervision of an adult instructor, or (c) firearms contained within a private vehicle operated by a nonstudent adult which are not loaded and (i) are encased or (ii) are in a locked firearm rack that is on a motor vehicle. For purposes of this subsection, encased shall mean enclosed in a case that is expressly made for the purpose of containing a firearm and that is completely zipped, snapped, buckled, tied, or otherwise fastened with no part of the firearm exposed.

Dan W:
Rick I agree that the possession charge is bogus, unless they can prove that he did brandish a shotgun. BUT they did not charge him with brandishing or assault with a deadly weapon. Maybe that is where the disorderly conduct comes in?
