However, Van Wagenen and his attorney, James "Mitch" D. Vilos, believe that any errors discovered through the October 2006 audit by the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms andOh, you mean what BATFU calls "willful violations"?
Explosives are innocent mistakes, not a deliberate disregard for rules.
"The Van Wagenen Finance Company has ... had hundreds of thousands of gun sales," Vilos said. "As far as I know, the vast majority have been absolutely legal and perfectly maintained. We're looking at the allegations closely, trying to figure out how some of those records were less than perfect."
How predictable was that?
"In order for us to pursue this charge, we need to establish that his conduct was done willfully and intentionally," Grunander said. "We are confident that we can prove this case at trial."
It looks like the Utah Deputy Attorney is tag-teaming with the feds on this.
With everything else going on, I don't see anyone else keeping an eye on this, so why don't we?

Utah is trying to draw firearm manufacturers to the state, and this DA is raising a few eyebrows with his zeal.
