ATF Director Resigns





Carl J. Truscott, director of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), announced his resignation last Friday in a letter to Attorney General Alberto Gonzales, citing plans to "pursue other challenges and consider private sector opportunities." Truscott was appointed director in April of 2004 by then Attorney General John Ashcroft. During his tenure, Truscott worked to ensure the rights of firearms retailers while fighting to reduce the criminal misuse of guns through joint industry and law enforcement programs such as Don't Lie for the Other Guy, the straw purchase deterrence program. "ATF Director Truscott is a good and honorable man who has worked hard for the firearms community and the American people. We wish him well in his future endeavors," said NSSF senior vice president and general counsel Lawrence G. Keane.
