In Episode Seven of this season, Connecticut criminal trial specialist Jim Ruane talks about firearms charges in Connecticut. He discusses how the politics of firearms impacts case results.

Did you know that Connecticut has some of the most complex and stringent firearm laws in the country? It is also very difficult for someone who has been convicted of a crime to legally own a firearm. Finally, Connecticut doesn't recognize out-of-state carry permits or licenses, so do not expect your out-of-state license to be sufficient in Connecticut .

Gun ownership and crimes committed using guns are taken very seriously. You can learn more about license requirements as well as who can and cannot possess firearms on this episode. For more information, visit our website.
