My 20 yr old Black son was arrested & charged in Calvert County for fleeing & eluding the police on a motorcycle. When searching him, they found a fully loaded gun (ghost gun). They also initially charged him with a lot of other charges, so he was facing like 10 years. Luke Woods was my son's attorney & he was top tier, he knew & understood gun laws very well as well as the other laws.
