Roger Von Bergendorff (you can't make up a name like that) is suspected of making his own ricin, a deadly poison. Prosecutors, who charged Bergendorff had the agent for an "unjustified purpose," are asking the judge to sentence the former Riverton do-it-yourselfer to three years in a federal gray bar hotel.

I've got wonder what is a justified purpose for possession of a bio weapon? And is it covered by the Second Amendment?

Bergendorff apparently accidentally tested his home-made ricin on himself, slipping into a coma. He should be completely recovered by November to begin his stretch in federal prison.
