In 2011, we told you about Bryco Arms, a "Saturday Night Special" gunmaker which knew its products were unsafe, and which declared bankruptcy to avoid paying lawsuit damages to teenage victim Brandon Maxfield. This week, the gun company's proprietor, Bruce Lee Jennings, was arrested and charged with possession and distribution of child pornography: "Agents say Jennings even admitted he knew the children in the videos were 'real children who had been sexually abused,' but … said he 'did not feel guilty'." [WFTV. Hat tip: Mike Harkins, who is readying a documentary about Brandon's case based on his earlier coverage]
