Grandmother of Missing Boy Fined for Silencer

A grandmother of a missing four-year-old boy has been fined $10,500 for possessing a gun silencer, a charge tied to a past firearms theft conviction. The silencer was found hidden in a secure room on her South Australian property, alongside modified weapons. While the court acknowledged the family’s anguish over the boy’s disappearance — last seen in September — it opted for a financial penalty over jail time, barring her from firearms ownership for five years. The search for Gus Lamont continues, with authorities treating his vanishing as a major crime and a suspect still at large. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
