Former NBA player Sebastian Telfair landed three and a half years behind bars Monday on weapons raps — after suffering an emotional meltdown, crying and yelling, in Brooklyn court. “Please don’t take me from society right now,’’ said the onetime Abraham Lincoln HS star from Brooklyn in a rambling statement. “I am 34. I can go play in China for six years and take care of my family. I’m waiting for my daughter right now to get her period. Real mental illness because I wasn’t around … She hasn’t even gotten her period yet.”




His stash:

Unless there is some proof of intent to use the guns in the commission of a crime, this is stupid. No way he should be going away for 3 years because of New York’s shitty gun laws.

Telfair seems to be removing the “borderline” from “borderline retarded.”

He had gotten busted for unlicensed weapons in New York State before and, while he is licensed in Florida, those kinds of licensing classes will explicitly tell you that not all permits are accepted by other states.

In Florida’s case, their permits are accepted by 37 other states / territories.

Most of those that don’t accept them are between DC and Massachusetts, including New York which famously sent Plaxico Burress to the pokey a few years back when he shot himself in the leg.

Repeat offender, hence the minimum sentence of 3 years.


Stupid, but that is the law in NY state.

He also had a Florida conceal carry permit for the guns. NY said "frick yo permit."

Were you thinking about that before you bought the "Wannabe Gangsta" starter set?

While a ridiculous statement, I feel for him. Guilty for possessing guns. New York, I assume?

Edit:

He’s an idiot. Responsible gun owners know the gun laws in the states that they travel and live. Are the gun laws in NY stupid? Yes, but they are the law until changed.

The 33-year-old former point guard who once played for teams including the Boston Celtics, Portland Trail Blazers, and Minnesota Timberwolves was pulled over in Brooklyn on June 11, 2017 after parking on a center median, making a U-turn off the median and driving without headlights, the district attorney's office said in a news release, citing trial testimony.

The officers who pulled Telfair over reported smelling the odor of marijuana and observed a lit marijuana cigarette in the car's console, the release from the district attorney's office said.

After Telfair and a male passenger were arrested, officers searched the vehicle and recovered a loaded .45 caliber gun in the console, the district attorney's office said.

"This defendant exercised his right to a jury trial and was found guilty of possessing an illegal firearm," Gonzalez said in a statement. "The mandatory prison sentence he received today is required by law and he has now been held accountable for the unlawful conduct."
