So does the son live with the father? Because it's illegal for anyone in a household with a prohibited person, to possess a firearm on the premises.

Lifetime ban, not just to 2012

Anyone ever convicted of a FELONY (and certain other crimes as well) is subject to a LIFETIME band on possession of any firearms or ammunition, unless their conviction has been expunged. That is federal law and applies equally if the conviction was state or federal.

The son is in deep serious trouble.... if the feds bother to prosecute him for this possession of a firearm by a prohibited person.
