    He needs a lawyer to handle this. He had it in his possession, in front of an officer. Here is an excerpt of MO probation laws;

    This will have to get sorted out in court. If testimony is given that supports what you say above then the case might go nowhere. It sounds like a weak and may not even get to court.
    What offense was he on probation for?

    At this point he needs to discuss this with no one but his lawyer. If he's talking to you from jail about any of this, stop. All jail conversations are recorded. Tell him to stop talking about this to anyone but his lawyer. This will take months to be resolved.

    HEY>>>> No one has told this women this... SHUT UP about having your sister buy it.... That is what the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT calls a straw purchase. Both you and your sister WILL be in BIG trouble for alone. In the United States, straw purchases are a felony violation of the Gun Control Act of 1968 for both the straw purchaser and ultimate possessor.

    FELONS can't own guns, possess guns, or even touch guns.
