Quote:Hours after the Knicks lost at the buzzer, Raymond Felton, the team's starting point guard, was arrested on felony gun charges early Tuesday morning, police said.

Mr. Felton, 29 years old, will be arraigned in Manhattan criminal court later Tuesday, according to police.

A Knicks' spokesman had no comment on the arrets. Neither Mr. Felton's agent, Thad Foucher, nor his attorneys could immediately be reached for comment.

According to a law-enforcement official, the arrest stems from a semiautomatic handgun that allegedly belongs to Mr. Felton and was left at the apartment of his estranged wife, Ariane Felton.

Ms. Felton and the attorney representing her in divorce proceedings took the gun, which had 17 bullets in the magazine and one in the chamber, to the 20th precinct station house in Manhattan Monday evening because she no longer wanted it in the home, the official said.

Ms. Felton, 26, said that on four occasions, most recently Feb. 14, Mr. Felton waved the weapon around in an aggressive way but didn't point it at her, according to the official.

The official said the weapon and ammunition aren't legal in New York City.

Mr. Felton turned himself in at about 12:50 a.m. Tuesday at the 20th precinct station house, where he was questioned before being charged, police said

He faces three counts: second-degree and third-degree criminal possession of a weapon—which are felony charges—and fourth-degree criminal possession of a weapon, police said. A conviction on the second-degree charge carries a minimum of 3 1/2 years in prison and a maximum of 15 years.

It's too bad that marriages don't fade to credits after they cut the cake...

Yikes, his wife brought his unregistered guns to the police station because they're in the middle of a divorce. Cold world.

Yep, I wish I could have warned myself but its a useful warning to others that something happens to women once they have 'quit' a marriage (by papers on in their mind only) their husband becomes their enemy. I'm not talking 'co worker you don't like' sort of enemy...more like, have you ever seen pre teen girls against the class outcast? Or a girl pour a drink on a guys head in a bar? Or a girl actively plotting to bang her 'friends' boyfriend? That kind of enemy. Any history of decency from her to her husband is obliterated.

Men do best to treat a soon to be ex spouse like the real legal, personal and financial threat they are.

It's not that they are unregistered (thought that would be an issue in NYC as well), it's that they are illegal to own in NYC unless you are extremely well connected . . . because while all animals are equal, some animals are more equal than others.

I'm so glad to have left a jurisdiction that doesn't think citizens . . . make that 'subjects' . . . should have the right to self-defense unless they are part of the elite, and therefore more worthy than the rest.

Frankly I am amazed this law has not been declared unconstitutional.

Also, it seems he would have been much better off to deny, deny, deny. Her and her lawyer brought them in. They were not found in his possession. In fact they were at her residence according to her own account.

He's probably being the typical chode and taking the bullet instead of fucking her into the ground.

I wish this dude the best.

Why do rich famous dudes get married, though? They have enough juice to say "nah, I ain't signing no marriage license" and the chick will stick around anyway. Just avoid living in a common-in-law state and that's it. Why make yourself so vulnerable?

You're assuming he purchased the pistol on the black market. What if he purchased from a dealer and there's a 4473 with his name on it? I don't know where this guy is from, but he could be from a state where it was legal for him to purchase and own, and he may have brought it with him to NYC.

I'm guessing he talked to his lawyer before turning himself in and they decided the 'deny' route was not a good option.

Though the fact that he was stupid enough to leave the pistol at her place even after they had broken up suggests that he is blue pill enough that your guess may be right.

And she may have lifted it from wherever he stored the gun that was legal, assuming it was registered, and brought it to NYC to blackmail him.

Just spitballing. Seems a good lawyer would be able to make some hay since the gun was not found in his possession but rather brought in by someone that obviously has a reason to inflict damage on him.

From the sounds of it he admitted to it all however, so he is probably fucked.

NBA players and their damn guns..
Didn't think Raymond was one of them.

Post: #12

The question I have is why get married when your that rich? Her doing this is literally her fucking him over legally likely just to help her case to get his money in divorce court. I mean she ruined his career.... That is incredibly foul when you think about it.

Post: #13

The bitch should ponder on how she can make a mild-mannered dude so enraged that he picks up a gun and waves it around.

How much of a cunt do you have to be to get some guy that pissed off?

Post: #14

She's lying about him waving it around. The police have stated that the charges aren't from him using the weapon in a menacing manner. He is charged for merely possessing the weapon. Keep in mind they are about to go through a divorce. She is building her case of him creating a "hostile environment" to extract more resources from him/ruin his life. Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.

As a Knicks fan I have to admit, this is the first time Felton has ever taken a charge!!

Post: #16

What a load of shit! That is one cold lick for her to do him like that. It also shows how dumb the bitch is, how the hell is she going to be able to collect alimony if he's in the slammer? I'm assuming NY has a roster of approved handguns like CA...

Post: #17

This just makes my blood boil imagining how I would feel if a girl fucked me over that badly...

Heartless bitch. . damn

Post: #18

Wait a damn second..

Why aren't they charging her with possession of it as well? The two were married afterall, and she did keep it in her house.

If she doesn't get charged without right possession, she's at least an accomplice in the offense.

Am I missing something here? If I'm right, she's a truly stupid bitch.

No, I don't think they do, not beyond their mag limit nonsense (no mags over 10rd capacity, and you must download all mags to at most 7rds - I'm sure the criminals complied and traded in their Glock 19's for Glock 26's, which they dutifully downloaded to 7rds). NYC just bans possession of handguns for pretty much everyone but the elite.

I have thought for a long time that american women are the most corrupt, degraded, and untrustworthy females in the world. Sleeping with them is like sleeping with the enemy.

what kind of woman/ wife throws her husband/ex/ any man under the bus like that?? Turning him in to the man - turning in a black man of all people to the criminal justice system - ........

she's a pig and deserves the OJ treatment if you ask me.

I hope Ray learns his lesson. Use those millions on women abroad - you can afford to fly out and fly them in at will. Leave the american bitches alone.

"Ms. Felton, 26, said that on four occasions, most recently Feb. 14, Mr. Felton waved the weapon around in an aggressive way but didn't point it at her, according to the official."

This bureaucratic cop-speak just sickens me. It's both inflammatory and sterile.

On the one hand, it pretends to be a sober accounting of events, not giving in to emotional rhetoric - but it's simultaneously so vague that you can't tell what's going on, and you assume the worst.

The picture being painted here is that his eyes were bugging out, as he waved the gun around like a lunatic, while quoting the Satanic Bible at the top of his lungs; the reality is that he probably just posed with the gun, pretending to be James Bond or some degenerate rapper - which is something EVERY* man has done at some point.

This is another case of a woman saying "I felt scared," and - without outright lying - she makes everybody think that the situation was one that deserved fear.

*Every man - because if you haven't handled a firearm, you're not a man.

I was thinking the same thing. Dude's probably a beta-at-heart that couldn't stand the thought of cupcake going to prison for a few years, even though she was obviously willing to throw him under the bus.

Had he refused to answer questions, this case could've easily fallen apart. Dumbass probably thought he could talk his way out of it.
