Luis Angel Vega, who’s worked with Congressman Pete Sessions for years, claims he didn’t have a license or registration for the firearm and forgot it was in his bag because it was an unusual routine. Sessions reportedly gets a pass on bag checks, but Vega was singled out that day. The U.S. attorney’s office hasn’t explained the delay, Vega was released without bail, and his next court date is June tenth. Sessions hasn’t commented. This one’s got serious political and legal juice. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
