A: Specific statistics regarding the number of individuals who have gone to trial in Missouri under 18 U.S.C. Section 922(g)(1) over the last 20 years would require access to up-to-date court records and databases. 18 U.S.C. Section 922(g)(1) is a federal statute that prohibits certain persons, including felons, from possessing firearms. To obtain detailed statistics on this specific provision and its application in Missouri over the specified time frame, you would likely need to consult the U.S. Department of Justice's annual reports, the Federal Bureau of Investigation's crime reports, or the Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts. These entities may provide statistics related to federal offenses, prosecutions, and convictions.
