He's a year younger than President Biden. If Biden can get four years as President that guy who stole the firearms could get more than a day.

Maybe he could tell how he managed to get those guns out of museums without being caught, or even getting to them as they likely were in glass cases or something where the public wouldn't have a chance to touch them.
