Supreme Court upholds firearms registration law
In a unanimous ruling the Supreme Court held the 1968 firearms registration law valid against self-incrimination challenges. It rejected claims that indictments of Donald Freed and Shirley Sutherland for possessing unregistered grenades were faulty for lack of knowledge the weapons were unregistered. Justice Douglas wrote the opinion for a government side that prevailed. The decision notes the law targets possession of unregistered weapons, with handguns excluded, and emphasizes public knowledge that such weapons are unlawful.
