being overturned, a former Gardena Police officer has been found guilty of federal charges for scheming to purchase \u201coff-roster\u201d firearms not available to the general public and then illegally reselling the firearms for profit, officials stated.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv1190393300MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">A federal jury on Thursday convicted Edward Yasushiro Arao, 51, of Eastvale, of conspiracy to engage in the business of dealing firearms without a license and a substantive count of engaging in an unlicensed firearms business.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv1190393300MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">According to the evidence presented during a four-day trial, Arao and his

style=\"font-size: 20px;\">As part of the scheme, Arao purchased \u201coff-roster\u201d firearms \u2013 all Colt .38 Super-caliber handguns that were not available to the general public, but which could be legally purchased by law enforcement officers \u2013 through Ronin Tactical Group, a federal firearms licensee that Arao owned and operated.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv1190393300MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">Arao then transferred the guns to himself individually from the inventory of Ronin Tactical Group and re-sold 41 of these weapons to non-law enforcement officers. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv1190393300MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">Similarly, Fernandez obtained multiple \u201coff-roster\u201d weapons, which he re-sold to the general public through Ronin Tactical Group. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv1190393300MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">Through messages on Instagram and via other means, Arao and Fernandez negotiated the prices and terms of firearm sales, and then delivered the guns and accepted payment, often in cash.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv1190393300MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">In a previous trial in November 2019, a federal jury found Arao guilty of the same two felony charges and found Fernandez guilty of conspiracy, selling firearms to a convicted felon, engaging in an unlicensed firearms business, and making false statements in federal firearms licensing paperwork.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv1190393300MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">In March 2020, U.S. District Judge S. James Otero <a href=\"https:\/\/www.justice.gov\/usao-cdca\/pr\/ex-gardena-police-officer-sentenced-nearly-3-years-prison-unlicensed-firearms-business\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">sentenced Fernandez to 33 months<\/a>\u00a0in federal prison. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv1190393300MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">At the same time, Judge Otero ordered a new trial for Arao after determining the two defendants should not have been tried together.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv1190393300MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">Arao is scheduled to be sentenced on Jan. 21 by U.S.District Judge Philip S. Gutierrez, who took over the case after Judge Otero retired. At sentencing, Arao\u00a0 faces up to 10 years in federal prison.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv1190393300MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">Previously in this case, six other defendants who illegally purchased firearms from Arao and Fernandez pleaded guilty and were sentenced, with two of those defendants being ordered to serve time in federal prison.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LOS ANGELES At the conclusion of a second trial prompted by an earlier conviction being overturned, a former Gardena Police officer
