'VT Gun Incident': 2/19 White River Jct Bellows Fall man given a 10-year prison sentence for home invasion and beating 73-year-old man with a gun http://hosted2.ap.org/NHWLV/Article/Article_2014-02-21/id-e92e78956094432996e3f3f643186252/recordType-Spot%20Development
GOV Analysis:
GunSense Accuracy Level:	False Claim: SENTENCING for a 2013 crime
Date: 2/19/2014	Town: Sentencing
VT Resident?:	Law Abiding Citizen Prior to Incident:
Event Type: Sentencing	Firearm Crime:

Details: Once again, the SENTENCING of a convict is considered a "Vermont Gun Incident". The crime, a home invasion where a 73 year old Springfield man was pistol-whipped, occurred in MAY of 2013. The suspect was convicted and sentenced to "1 to 10 years", for the felony charge of "assault and robbery with injury resulting", and which would be served concurrently for a drug crime he is already serving.
NO law will prevent crime. No law will stop criminals from getting guns. Gun Control only effects the law-abiding citizen and the politicians know it.
