The affidavit says detectives determined the ID card actually belonged to a woman who died in a fire last December.
It says by searching social media accounts for that woman and her family, they determined that Herring was her sister.
They believe Herring used her dead sister's ID during the theft.
That is messed up... and also not that bright.


Yeah wearing a low cut top with her tattoo visible sure helped ease the positive ID.

Stealing full auto weapons should led to immediate application of a 22 LR to the rear of the cranium.

Umm. If it's a full auto MP5 that value is off by an order of magnitude.
more than that. MP5 in decent working condition would be closer to $35-40k, no?
Only a fully transferrable actual HK MP5 is worth that. If it's a HK clone post sample, $3-5K is accurate. We built 2 for under $6k. If someone has a type Type 7 with Class 3 SOT they can build and register machineguns, we refer to them as post samples. Post samples cannot be sold to civilians, and must be sold to another dealer, military/LEO, or de-milled. Post sample values are significantly less than a transferable.

My question as well because that article makes no mention of it.

Amber Herring, 25, was taken into custody, apparently her visible chest tattoo did her in.

CONVERSE, Texas
Bexar County sheriff's detectives have arrested a woman in connection with the theft of a submachine gun from a Converse shooting range.

Court documents show Amber Herring, 25, was taken into custody late Monday night, then booked into the Bexar County jail.

She faces charges related to the theft and possession of a prohibited firearm. Her bond is set at $30,000.
The arrest affidavit says Herring appears to have the same tattoo on her chest that is seen on a woman caught on surveillance video at Lone Star Handgun shooting range.

The owner of the Converse business shared that video with KSAT 12 News.

Geez, lady. I guess the tailgate down and parking out of camera view was the extent of her brilliant scheme.

For 20k cash you can buy a full auto M4 over in Mexico. Just have to deal with the cartels, corrupt police and getting back across into Texas. But with May 11th approaching, boarder crossing will be a lot easier.

Great example for needed Federal prosecution /court involvement. No bail and no parole after conviction.

This is the exact kind of case they should be most concerned about. Felony theft of a machine gun. Why the hell would they let Bexar county handle and prosecute this case?

The radio news I heard when this broke said on of the charges was possession on an illegal fire arm. To me that sounds like they recovered the gun.

The article linked about states that the gun has not been recovered.

This chick should sit in jail until the gun is recovered.

And then 25 more years after that.

You want to curb "gun violence", start here.

Because for the feds it isn't about "gun violence".

Never has been.

My guess that they recovered the gun because of the possession charge was wrong, they are still looking for it and whoever was driving the truck she left in.

Only if it's transferable.
