Lets pretend this happened here in MA....The home invaders would have been arrested and released on their own recognizance. When their trial did come up, it would probably be "continued one year without a finding" as the court reports say, without anytime served at all. Now for the family of the house invaded - if made after 1994 possession of the "assault" weapon is illegal in MA, if purchased prior to 1994, as the high capacity weapon was in the hands of a 15 year old, the pistol/high capacity licenses would have been instantly revolked from the permit holders, the firearm in question as well as any other firearms and ammuntion would have been confiscated for destruction by the MA state police. The parents would be under arrest and fined for improper storage of a firearm as it was accessible to minors (no trigger lock or storage in a locked box), the 15 year old would be in juvenile custody for unlicensed possession of a firearm and ammunition. sadly this would just be the beginning of troubles for the invaded family. In the eyes of MA laws, they would be the criminals!
