Fact Pattern
The facts are as follows: Julia Williams owns a residence at 12 West Avenue, Annapolis, MD. On the night of December 2, 2022, Ms. Williams worked an overnight shift as a nurse. At approximately 5:00 AM, Ms. Williams returned home and observed individuals inside of her living room. Specifically, while the living room was dark, Ms. Williams observed through a very large living room window that two individuals wearing dark clothes were inside the living room with flash lights.
Ms. Williams then called 911 and reported that intruders were inside of her home. Based on the 911 call, officers responded to the residence.
The police entered the residence and both of the individuals inside the living room were placed under arrest.
The officers then conducted pat-downs of both individuals: Jim Brady and Tom Wilson.
The police officers recovered a handgun from Mr. Brady’s waistband. Upon further investigation, the officers recovered three glassine envelopes containing a white powdery substance from Mr. Brady’s right jacket pocket.
On Mr. Wilson’s person, the police officers recovered two digital scales and $1,541 in cash from Wilson’s jacket pocket. The officers also recovered a revolver, $795 in cash, and a prescription drug bottle prescribed to Julia Williams containing 10 Percocet tablets from a backpack that Wilson was carrying.
None of the guns are properly registered and neither Brady nor Wilson have valid permits to carry any firearms.
Discuss the potential charges that can be filed against Brady and Wilson.
