My niece's husband was arrested at the airport because he was wearing a brass knuckle belt buckle?
When he pulled his belt off to go thru the security line, they took him aside and arrested him. She got him it for his birthday. They didn't know it was illegal. It was only a belt buckle to them. It wasn't intended to be a weapon. This happened at the Oakland airport. What do you think will happen to him? Probation? Will it be a felaony or a mistameanor? After they released him, he got on his flight and was seated next to E40 (some rapper). tangle; she has no reason to lie to me. Plus if he intended it to be a weapon, he wouldn't try to take it thru security. They ticketed him and told to appear in court in March.

Yeah, I'm sure they had no idea it was a brass knuckle. Seriously? I wouldn't buy that story, I doubt the courts will either.

nothing will happen. security did their job and found it was not a weapon. if there were charges, he would have not been allowed on the plane.

Bummer that he was seated next to a rapper. Sometimes the punishment does not fit the crime. He should have been seated next to a boxer, not a rapper. Perhaps there was a tpyo. You mean they arrested him without charging him with anything? I think you should know what he is being charged with. Didn't you get any paperwork? Do you have a lawyer?

Unfortunately, brass knuckles are considered deadly weapons. What will happen next is the complete report will go to the District Attorney's office who will review the case. He will then take it to the Grand Jury for an indictment. He will then be asked to surrender himself to the police department for a new felony charge and subsequent arraignment hearing. Best and only advice is to have a consultation with a good defense attorney. The first thing he will be told is "ignorance of the law is no excuse". Having brass knuckles on him qualifies as carrying a deadly weapon. If he has no prior histories behind him, a good lawyer might be able to get a plea bargain down to a 1st degree misdemeanor. Best of luck and I hope this is useful to you
