It's claimed 'full auto machine gun', but that doesn't qualify. My guess, based off the dates and world events, Anthrax. Someone had him steal it, he still committed a crime but if he did it under orders from CIA assholes, he wouldn't end up in jail.
If so, it's an improvement over 'plastic fantastic'…
Doesn't matter if it's stagged, it's how everyone should treat them. The FBI is synonymous with Giglio now. When someone says they stopped a crime or took down a pedo, I wonder who they illegally imprisoned or setup. They can't be trusted.
