    Une femme de 32 ans a plaidé coupable à sept arme des accusations liées à un tribunal de Toronto, lundi, la dernière d’une série de plaidoyers de culpabilité suite à une enquête de balayage qui s’étendait aussi loin que la Jamaïque et inclus certaines des armes les plus prolifiques de la ville et trafiquants de drogue. Lisa Parmanand, 32 ans, a plaidé coupable à sept accusations impliquant la possession et la distribution d’armes à feu, y compris un pistolet Mac-11 de la machine et plusieurs armes de poing. Parmanand avait une charge de participer à une organisation criminelle retirée, mais toujours reçu une sentence de 10 ans, moins de six ans pour le temps passé. Son arrestation découle de la fusion du projet, l’enquête de police de Toronto a lancé en août 2008 après une vague de meurtres et de fusillades dans la Markham Road et l’avenue Eglinton Est zone de Toronto. Plus d’une douzaine d’autres personnes ont également plaidé coupable récemment, au pistolet ou à de graves accusations de drogue et condamné à de longues peines de prison dans le cadre de l’enquête. Comme le projet Fusion déplié, le tribunal a dit, la police a reçu l’approbation judiciaire de l’écoute électronique des conversations téléphoniques de trafiquants de drogue à mi-niveau et les fournisseurs d’armes. Ceux écoutes téléphoniques ont conduit à la découverte des plus grands joueurs dans pègre de Toronto. Que les hommes et les femmes qui comprenait fourni des millions de dollars de cocaïne et de marijuana aux gangs de rue, ainsi que d’un anneau arme qui clandestinement des armes d’Atlanta à Toronto. En cas Parmanand, le tribunal a appris les armes ont été achetées près d’Atlanta et de contrebande au Canada à travers le pont Queenston à Niagara Falls.

  10. cjchivers: The pipes are clogged ahead of the State of the Union address, and other news brews, too, which is a way of saying the newspaper is full, and many stories must wait their turn. A good thing, in its way, because it provides a chance to review notes and archives and to plan future articles and posts. So today, while the journal of the “red shirts” on the U.S.S. John C. Stennis remained in the pickle jar and as I finished up interviewing and fact-checking for a follow to the Somali pirates, there was time to sketch out the work ahead for a Somali Pirate Gun Locker post for the NYT’s At War blog. What do I mean? Well, while aboard the pirate mother ship earlier this month, I inventoried the pirates’ captured weapons. The weapons sample at hand was not large — five firearms, one of them a semi-automatic pistol. But there was a curiosity in the mix. Although the initial radio calls from the U.S. Navy boarding team on the Al Mulahi said the pirates had four AK-47s on board, in this case, the acronym “AK-47” was used as it often is: to mean “assault rifle,” and not much more. Three of the rifles were in fact AKM derivatives. But look at the photo, above, of a round removed from one of the fourth rifle’s magazine. That’s right — you are looking at NATO-standard 5.56. One of the rifles was something else altogether. Any guesses on what kind of rifle the pirates carried that fired 5.56? I’ll work up the post later this week with the answer. Meanwhile, send your guesses to my email address, thegun.book@gmail.com.  This is not, by the way, arms identification for the sake of arms identification, or for buffs. The rifle in question carried a reminder worth hearing, and suggested a lesson on how, in a broken Somalia, some of these pirates obtained their arms.
