During a raid on Madden”s home in September, police seized the Czech made semi-automatic gun which was found in a box in his bedroom alongside 384 ammunition rounds, the report said.
At the defendent’s sentencing, the court was told that police found “extreme right-wing views” and an “unhealthy interest in firearms, weapons and proscribed organizations” on two laptops and a cellphone.
