He IS a convicted felon[and i would assume there must be some Federal charges in his past for Feds to come swooping in].
You Step dad doesn't have to worry about him being a neighbor anymore.
Kind of thinking this too. He does have a CC and it was probably best that his pistol was in the truck. I feel pretty certain that he would have caused the guy to have a few leaks....
The point is, as we've seen of late, people are getting crazier by the day.
