I apologize--I just went back to your first post and you did not mention the vehicle having been searched.
But I still maintain that having disarmed the driver, the deputy was within the law when he took the weapon back to the patrol unit and ran it for stolen. That was NOT a 4th Amendment violation.
The sheriff told me EVERY LTC holder that is stopped will be disarmed and have their weapon checked for stolen. I have a problem with that. It came straight from the horses mouth. The LTC in this case will most likely be filing a complaint with the AG. We’ll see.
