Massachusetts imposes strict penalties for illegal possession of firearms, including minimum mandatory sentences for certain charges.
Federal Crimes

Federal Crimes

Crimes prosecuted in federal court are the result of thorough investigations by federal law enforcement and often involve greater amounts of evidence than criminal cases handled in state court.

In turn, studies indicate federal prosecutors obtain convictions in over 90% of cases prosecuted in federal court.
