TLC star Brandon Putman pleaded not guilty to a felony gun charge, RadarOnline.com has exclusively learned.
Putman’s lawyer Brian Lennon confirmed to RadarOnline.com that Putman appeared in court Thursday morning and entered a not guilty plea.
“We look forward to telling our side of the story at the appropriate time,” Lennon told RadarOnline.com.
Last month, a grand jury indicted Putman on the charge of receipt or possession of a firearm unregistered with the National Firearms Registration and Transfer Record, RadarOnline.com reported.
The TLC star was charged after allegedly attempting to make an AR-15 gun fully automatic. Court documents state Putman allegedly entered a gun shop in Elkton, Michigan on Nov. 28, 2017 and asked the owner to create 10 duplicates of a metal firearm part he brought in.
Putman’s request was reported to the attention of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. A special agent took on the case and confirmed the shop owner’s suspicions.
