Agent Lamon: There is a 5.11 bag AUSA: What's that? Lamon: Just a bag. AUSA: And this? Lamon: Rifles and a Mossberg shotgun. AUSA: And this? Lamon: A drum magazine, large capacity, this one was a 60 round. It had 59 rounds of green-tip ammunition in it
AUSA: What does green-tip ammunition do? Agent Lamon: It is designed to pierce body armor. AUSA: Could you go look at the boxes of firearms in the cart next to you? [Lamon does, goes off-mic] Lamon: ...the serial numbers, where they existed, matched up
AUSA: Do any of the firearms not have serial numbers? Agent Lamon: One did not, this one [holds long gun up] AUSA: How are serial numbers eliminated? Lamon: Sanded off with a machine. It's smooth. Not like it was done with a screwdriver. AUSA: No further questions
Judge: Mr. Agnifilo? Combs' Agnifilo: You are aware that Mr. Colms has security, right? Agent Lamon: Yes. Agnifilo: And every gun and piece of ammo was recovered from the security office, right? Lamon: Yes Agnifilo: There were no guns in kids' bedroom? Lamon: None
Combs' Agnifilo: Was the security office door locked? Lamon: Not when I got there. Agnifilo: But before - isn't it important? Did it have a lock? Lamon: It had a knob. Lock, I don't know. AUSA: You have no reason to think the safe was open before you got there No?
Agent Lamon: We brought a locksmith. But I didn't see him touch that safe. Combs' Agnifilo: We're in Mahattan, we don't know a lot about guns - sorry Judge: Withdrawn. Agnifilo: This was a gun safe? Lamon: Designed for that. Agnifilo: Why not photo of opening it?
Agent Lamon: SRT goes in first. Combs' Agnifilo: So because of this protocol we don't have any photographs. So you use a body cam? Lamon: No. Agnifilo: In your human trafficking work, have you ever dealt with Astroglide before? Lamon: Only in this case.
Combs Agnifilo: OK (chuckles) Judge: No comments, please. Agnifilo: So the baby oil was in the garage? Agent Lamon: It was the Astoglide in the garage. Agnifilo: You're from LA? Lamon: Yes. Agnifilo: Enjoy. No further questions. No re-direct.
