NEW VIDEO: Getting hit with a weapons charge in Oklahoma can feel like your whole life is on the line—especially when you’re not even sure what you did wrong or how “possession” is being defined against you. One bad decision early on, like talking too much or assuming the charge is “no big deal,” can make the situation much worse.

In this video, Oklahoma criminal defense attorney John Cannon explains how weapons charges really work in Oklahoma—what counts as a weapons offense, how police stops and searches can be challenged, when “lack of knowledge” can be a defense, and how prosecutors try to prove you were in possession of a weapon. If you’re facing a gun or weapons charge (or trying to help someone who is), this walkthrough shows why staying silent, acting early, and getting an experienced Oklahoma defense lawyer on your side is so important.
