The first person to have his guns confiscated under Florida’s 2018 “red flag” law has been found guilty over his refusal to voluntarily surrender the weapons.
Jerron Smith, 33, now faces up to five years in prison after a jury in Broward County rejected his argument that he did not fully understand the new law. The jury returned the verdict Friday after a short trial.
Smith, of Deerfield Beach, was the subject of a risk protection order soon after the law was enacted in response to the Parkland high school mass shooting in February 2018.

This is truly a slippery slope. I can see a lot of shoot outs if this keeps up.
Don't come to wicomico.
507 PM DUDE:
I've been there here in this County , Over a fictional restraining order by my wife.
( MY WIFE AT THE TIME, WAS HAVING RELATIONS WITH DOCTORS FOR MORE prescription OPIATES, AND WAS AFRAID I WOULD FIND OUT).
Mike Lewis is a FAKE...LEWIS had his keystone cops beat on my house door so hard, they knocked down my antique clock; breaking in pieces all over the floor.
My family dog was barking at LEWIS'S Keystone Cops at my home door ...THE KEYSTONE COPS were there to collect my guns pending court over this restraining order.
The Sherrifs deputies could be clearly heard at my door threatening to SHOOT MY DOG
( DOG IN MY HOME AT FRONT DOOR)
AS THEY TRIED TO ENTER MY DOOR BY BEATING ON THE DOOR IN A AGRESSIVE MANNER.
I contacted an FBI friend of mine in another state advising him of the threats to shoot my family dog while arming myself.
My FBI friend acknowledged the unprofessional conduct of the deputies, as he heard their antics while I was on my phone speaking with him. He advised me not to use force unless the deputies break down my door and enter my home. The Sherrifs office did not have a warrant.
The FBI buddy advised me not to open my door, and to stop by my attorney office in morning.
My attorney was advised of the Wicomico County Sherrifs office conduct, and the antics.
In accordance to the STATUTORY LAW ( NOT THE CONSTITUTION LAW), LEWIS CAN TAKE YOUR GUNS WITHOUT DUE PROCESS IN WICOMICO COUNTY.
My attorney advised me he would accompany me while I surrender my guns to the sheriffs office in person.
After all that bullshi# , my attorney and I had the court case thrown out with NO MERIT.
Unfortunately for me, two of my shotguns were not returned to me by the Sherrifs office and were deemed lost.
Democrat progressives wish to eviscerate the United States Constitution.
We have had a few Presidents to include OBAMA who were progressives....WHO wish to destroy our Constitution.
F'in Lewis stated on TV , and in front of our President Trump that he would not disarm law Abiding Citizens in Wicomico County. Lewis is an F'in liar AND IN MY OPINION LEWIS IS A PROGRESSIVE TOO.
This INCIDENT would not of ended well, should those deputies broke into my home and attempted to shoot my dog as they threatened through my house door...
I agree with your comments 507pm....that sooner or later a law Abiding CITIZEN may not use restraint while under such threats of COWBOY COPS.
P.S. I divorced the whore wife, and the Judge gave me everything to include my home.
GET OUT NOW!! LEAVE MD BEFORE ITS TO LATE. This is only the beginning
Mike Lewis IS a progressive and supports any and ALL actions taken by the city of Salisbury three ring circus. Mike Lewis is getting ridiculous funding for his budgets and will not make waves. The whole area is corrupt and crooked
LEWIS IS A JOKE!
Remember that video lewis made harassing a man walking down the street with a rifle?
10:02 you mean the one with the senator or house representative trying to discredit the open carry movement? You mean that video?
Civil War Is Coming !
Glad im a free thinker. You libs and cons dumber then your snowflake children.
One group wants to ban guns
One group wants to ban drugs
Both of which are here to stay for the existence of humans.
One group says guns dont kill people, people kill people and if used correctly can protect families. The other group says guns kill little kids and families.
One group says drugs are bad in their best southpark voice and kill little kids and families. The other group says if used medicinal and correctly have many benefits to humans.
I say put a bag of guns and put a bag of heroin on your kitchen table. Dont touch them and dont use them ever. Dont allow anyone else to touch them or use them ever. Wait and see which bag kills the most people.
All libs and cons should give it a try. While they are waiting for mass death maybe they will actually think.
