He really should had kept that locked in the boot of the car, his other mistake was not having a valid license, that's just asking for you to be caught.

Not having a valid license was his only mistake. Why should a sword have to be kept locked in the trunk during transportation? You think if the sword's loose, he'll be tempted to randomly hack at people? Having to lock weapons up simply for transport is just idiocy and there's no evidence for it being useful in preventing violent crimes.

@Anonymous: laws vary from state to state but like hl1978 says, NJ is one of the stricter places for owning weapons, so I'd actually be surprised if they drop the weapons charge unless he can show a perfectly innocent reason such as being on the way to iaido class or something.
