Member of the Minneapolis Lows Gang Sentenced to Prison for Possession of a Machine Gun - BATFE Press Release

MINNEAPOLIS — A Brooklyn Center man has been sentenced to 24 months in prison followed by three years of supervised release for illegally possessing a machine gun, announced U.S. Attorney Andrew M. Luger.

According to court documents, in April 2023, law enforcement began investigating members of the Minneapolis Lows, a street gang that engages in drug trafficking, firearm possession, and acts of violence. On June 29, 2023, law enforcement conducted a search of a residence belonging to Marquez Demar Hill-Turnipseed, 21, a member of the Lows. As a result of the search, law enforcement recovered a loaded .45 Glock semi-automatic pistol with an attached auto-sear, also known as a switch; a conversion device that turns a handgun into a fully automatic machinegun. Law enforcement also recovered from the residence a loaded ghost gun.

On Oct. 4, 2023, Hill-Turnipseed pleaded guilty to one count of unlawful possession of a machine gun. He was sentenced yesterday by U.S. District Judge Ann D. Montgomery.....

Huh, less than we would have gotten for a pistol brace if it had stuck…

24 months? That's not even enough time to earn any street cred.

[Jackpine Savage]

He'll be out in 2.

When it comes to this type of sentence I'd rather be a criminal than a legal gun owner, less of a sentence.
