From news reports: Rep. John Willamowski of Lima on Wednesday introduced a bill that would increase the penalty for the theft of a firearm.
The bill would increase the maximum possible sentence to five years in prison from the current 18 months. It also would require a judge to sentence offenders to prison time, unless the judge found extraordinary circumstances in the offender's favor, Willamowski said. Note: Will gun control organizations and anti-gun lawmakers support this legislation?
