Probation violations in both cases + new charges, still not revoked.
Minnesota is totally serious about gun crime.
Chronic offender Guntallwon Brown was convicted in two separate gun cases in two counties in two months.
Slap on the wrist in both cases. Spun out the door.

Sentenced to 60 mos.
HOWEVER, sentence was stayed by Judge Reynaldo A. Aligada, Jr.

Roger Wells was also charged in November with four counts related to DWI and driving after revocation.
Yet, he was not probation violated on the gun case even though the terms of his probation prohibited alcohol/drug use and required him to remain law abiding.
Double Fail.
