Today, U.S. Attorney Metcalf was honored to present the loved ones of fallen @PhillyFireDept Capt. Sean Williamson with our district’s Hometown Hero Award. The award commemorates the USA's 250th anniversary by celebrating the enduring ideals of liberty, service, and civic responsibility, which Capt. Williamson truly exemplified. The former Marine & 27-year PFD veteran was part of a team fighting a structure fire in June 2022, when the building collapsed, killing him and injuring several other firefighters. The blaze was later determined to be arson.

ATF is removing the two sentences from its regulatory definitions of "machine gun" that included bump stocks. This directly implements the U.S. Supreme Court’s 2024 decision in Garland v. Cargill, which ruled that semiautomatic rifles with bump stocks are not machine guns under the National Firearms Act. The change aligns ATF’s regulations with the statute and the Court’s binding interpretation. Read the final rule at federalregister.gov/documents/2026…. #NewEra

The new ATF Forensic Crime Gun Intelligence Laboratory is purpose-built to transform how law enforcement investigates violent firearms crimes. As the first forensic laboratory to specialize in DNA recovery from fired cartridge cases, FCGIL combines advanced DNA collection and analysis with a high-throughput workflow. This enables rapid development of investigative leads from crime scene evidence and felon-in-possession cases, linking suspects through the national DNA database hits and connecting crimes even when different firearms are used. “This laboratory is a force multiplier for law enforcement,” said ATF Director Robert Cekada. “It brings together DNA, casing acquisitions into NIBIN, firearm examinations, serial number restoration, latent fingerprints, and intelligence support in one place, allowing us to move faster and provide investigators with the leads they need. Every hour matters in a violent crime investigation, and this facility helps close that gap and strengthens our ability to go after those who use firearms to harm our communities.” Learn more about ATF labs at atf.gov/laboratories. #CrimeGunIntel
