Show Notes
Marine Corporal Andrew Amarillas faces federal charges for stealing military ammunition and Javelin missile systems, selling them to civilians in Arizona. He worked as an ammo tech at Camp Pendleton, handling explosives from February 2022 to January 2026. Court documents show he took enhanced performance rounds and Javelins without authorization. The Javelins, used in war zones, are illegal for public possession unless demilitarized. Investigators traced stolen gear to Amarillas, leading to his arrest. Hes considered a flight risk, and two million rounds remain unaccounted for. The case highlights security gaps in military firepower management.
