This is old news. It is a charge for 4th deg possession of a weapon which in New York probably means the taser. It is definitely not a gun charge. Without significant criminal history and with a decent lawyer she will probably be fine.
 
1. The court case is on 8/15, not 8/4.

2. While this thread may lead to more specific development documentation, there is already the "Evidence of Lawbreaking" thread here, and the "Where in the World is Isabella Janke?" thread here. I'm a bit divided on whether this thread should remain on its own, but thankfully it's not up to me. Good to keep the above threads in mind, though.

3. Please see my post on this matter, in the above threads:
Because people ( @Raze @AnOminous @CringeForce99 ) were discussing this in the Summary thread, I took a quick look into what her upcoming court case actually means.

What stood out to me is the "DAT-N" code in the "Part" location of the ticket. After looking it up, I wasn't able to determine what the "-N" stands for, but DAT = Desk Appearance Ticket. According to these lawyer's website:

"A DAT is a written order that is issued by the police, which requires a person to appear in criminal court on a specific date and time, which is known as a return date. At the return date, an accused person will be expected to respond to accusations that they have committed a crime.

Desk Appearance Tickets are issued in place of putting a person through the formal arrest process. However, it is important to note that while these tickets are more serious than NYPD summonses, a person is not considered guilty of a crime just because they receive a Desk Appearance Ticket, however, they have been arrested."

So, at the very least we know that she will have to "appear" at court. We also know that it is open to the public for in-person attendance. However, it was hard to know whether she has the option of appearing "in absentia" through a lawyer, or if she can call in. She is listed under the category of "Arraignments" when I searched for all DAT-N appearances for that court and date.

However, when I searched for DAT-V cases, there were some in Arraignment too, one pending - I was thinking that maybe the -N and -V were the stages of the trial, or the classifications ("Non-violent," vs. "Violent", etc.). After doing a bit of research, I found out that in DAT-V, the "V" stands for "Virtual", meaning via webcam etc. For DAT-N, the "N" stands for "Night," meaning it is scheduled in the evening court session. So, by all appearances, Qween Portobella is currently scheduled to appear in-person and does not have a lawyer filed with the courts to represent her at this time.

4. Also this one:
1. There is the possibility that the website is not up-to-date on information such as who her lawyer is or whether it is in-person or virtual. It's possible that paperwork was already submitted for a continuation/changing the status to "DAT-V", and it will be handled at that date with no appearance, for example. This is to my limited understanding, so take with a grain of salt.

2. By "open to the public" I meant that the courts are not currently closed down or virtual-only due to COVID. I didn't mean that you would necessarily be able to just saunter into the courthouse, as a lot places around the USA are currently "restricted" - going to the vet, for example, only one person can go in with their pet. Or, you are forced to wait outside in your car until they call you in. Or, they go outside and pick up your pet, and then come back out and give you back your pet. Etc. I didn't bother looking into whether or not this is the case for the courthouse in Queens because that information wasn't readily available, but if anyone does end up going, feel free to contact me I guess haha. Would be nice to add more information to the summary thread/update the Court Saga aspect of it.
 
Also should be noted, as per my recollection of an earlier post made by another user elsewhere (sorry that I can't provide receipt - I'm up to my eyeballs in receipts) - a "taser" is a specific type/brand of stun gun which has prongs that shoot out and clasp onto the target, causing electrical charge to run through the whole body, with the intention of completely disabling the target. What she seems to have is a generic "stun gun" which doesn't have a projectile element to it, with the electrical charge running between the two nodes that are fixed onto the "gun." This is, to my understanding, legally relevant.
 
Since the arrest was from the Port Authority it is possible she was arrested on the subway or other public transit.
This is from a law firm's website that does these cases, and I'd bet dollars to doughnuts it describes her situation exactly.
One of the most common scenarios involving Criminal Possession of a Weapon in the Fourth Degree pursuant to Penal Law 265.01(1) arises where a person is stopped in the subway or on the street after the NYPD observe what to be the clip of a knife on the outside of their pant pocket. Upon search, the clip is attached to either a switchblade or gravity knife and the police make an arrest for a New York knife crime. Another routine example is where a resident or visitor is flying out of JFK or LaGuardia Airport and forgets or is simply unaware that in his or her bag is a bludgeon, metal or brass knuckles, or even certain sling shots. These objects qualify as per se contraband and a Desk Appearance Ticket is issued assuming you have a clean past.

Usually associated with other “bad” conduct, a relatively common scenario that runs afoul of Penal Law 265.01(2) involves one party using an otherwise insignificant object as a dangerous instrument to perpetrate the crimes of Assault or Menacing. While an iPad or laptop is certainly not considered as such a thing by itself, if you raise it over your head to strike someone or actually hit them in the face, you have not only committed the crime of Assault, but CPW4 as well.

I'd specifically bet she had her stun gun, or other dumb mall ninja shit, out of her clothes while just walking around in public, either so dumb she doesn't know New York is incredibly restrictive of such things, or arrogant enough to think she could get away with it. Alternately she went through a checkpoint or otherwise acted like a flake enough that they decided to do a stop-and-frisk.

My guess is she gets a fine and maybe probation, maybe pleading to some lesser disorderly conduct type of charge.

While in theory they could charge you with this for a firearm, in actual practice they almost always find a more serious charge for that, with fourth degree available as a plea bargaining option. They generally take real guns much more seriously than in other jurisdictions (sometimes to the point of being outright unconstitutional).

This is theorycraft, and again something I don't like to do, but given what we know about her family, living, and transportation situations, I believe the most likely candidate is being stopped at JFK/LaGuardia.
 
Holy shit! Court is a seven day a week affair in Queens?!

Nice of them to schedule her on a weekend evening so she can make it back to TTU by the next day if she decides to show in person.
NYC thangs, makes sense for such a densely populated jurisdiction.

She had to leave her current domicile at TTU due to the lease running out (11.5 months), and is planning on moving to a different one in the area. I imagine she may be staying in NYC for this .5 months at her mother's apartment in light of the court case, if she does have to show up in person.
 
No way anything will come from this. Most she will get is a slap on the wrists. And if anything else happens then glownigger daddy will pay a ton to get her out or get her charges removed.
