The jury also convicted Giovanni Tilotta of assisting former Sheriff's Department Capt. Marco Garmo in illegally selling 'off-roster' handguns to private citizens — despite the fact that those guns are only intended for law enforcement.
The U.S. Attorney's Office says Tilotta instructed Garmo and Hamel to make sham emails in order to hide that straw purchases were conducted at his store.
The U.S. Attorney's Office said in one instance, Tilotta used backdated paperwork to sell a handgun and a rifle in Garmo's sheriff's office to local criminal defense attorney Vikas Bajaj, who pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor count of aiding and abetting the false entry of dealer records.
