A complaint filed by the Justice Department and the District of New Mexico seeks to seize the assets of the Reese family of New Mexico, for allegedly selling firearms, ammunition and other supplies knowing they were being illegally sent to Mexico.
New Deal Shooting Sports is owned and operated by Rick Reese, his wife, Terri Reese, and their two adult sons, Ryin and Remington Reese.
On Aug. 30, 2011, the family was arrested on charges contained in a 30-count indictment.
