A court case in Philadelphia involving a man who lost his Second Amendment rights forever over a DUI is beginning to heat up.
Following a trial in 2005, Edward Williams was convicted of driving under the influence in Pennsylvania. Since he had a previous expunged DUI, the 2005 conviction qualified as a first-degree misdemeanor, punishable in Pennsylvania by up to five years’ imprisonment.
Williams was never imprisoned, however, but was placed under house arrest for 90 days, ordered to pay costs and a fine of $1,500, and to complete any recommended drug and alcohol treatment under the mandatory minimum sentence.
