Janine Peru’s office ends with a DC rifle and a judicial policy rifle

Federal public prosecutors in Washington, DCPeople with criminal charges will not be slapped for guns or rifles in the country’s capital, according to the American lawyer in Colombia County Janine Peru.

Change means that federal public prosecutors will not request charges under the Capital Law, which made illegal carried rifles or rifles in the region, except in limited cases of permits holders.

Under the new policy, the US Prosecutor’s Office will continue to provide charges when a person is accused of using a rifle or rifle in a violent crime or has a criminal record prohibited to own a firearm. The new policy also covers large capacity magazines, but does not include pistols.

Janine Peru says that the current Justice system for the ongoing current “does not cut it” because Trump controls federal control

Local officials may also sue people for having illegal rifles and rifles.

Peru, the former Fox News, said in a statement that the new policy is based on guidelines from the Ministry of Justice and the Office of the Public Prosecutor.

She also said that the change is compatible with the sentences of the Supreme Court that protects weapons.

Peru said that the comprehensive ban on the possession of rifles and rifles violates the court’s ruling for the year 2022, which brought down a law in New York and worked that people have the right to carry firearms in public places of self -defense. She also cited a 2008 ruler’s ban on pistols at home.

Change comes in the middle of the president Donald Trump He moved to enhance federal law enforcement in the province in an attempt to reduce crime. Hundreds of federal agents and the National Guard forces have been deployed in the streets of the capital

The White House said that 76 firearms have been seized since the federal acquisition began earlier this month.

Peru has been a strong critic of the efforts of local officials to treat crime in the capital since Trump took advantage of the leadership of the country’s prosecutor’s office in May.
