A Pacific Beach man was sentenced to five years and eight months in state prison for assaulting his girlfriend and possessing a loaded firearm with cocaine.
Christian Joseph Wydajewski, 28, also pleaded guilty to making a criminal threat along with domestic violence. He was arrested on Dec. 31, 2022, and posted bond, but was re-arrested on May 8.
Wydajewski was carrying a loaded ghost gun when he was patted down by officers, who found two unserialized AR15 ghost gun rifles, which police said were assault weapons, in a press release.
Ghost guns are weapons put together without serial numbers and obtained through the mail. Also seized at his residence were two Derringer-style firearms, a loaded Glock handgun, firearm silencers, body armor, and a fully automatic conversion device, commonly called a “Glock switch,” according to police. Mere possession of the device is considered possession of a machine gun.
Police confiscated the cache of weapons in response to a domestic violence restraining order and a search warrant of his home in the 2300 block of Grand Avenue in Pacific Beach. Also found were about nine grams of cocaine and $2,000 in cash.
Deputy District Attorney Jeff Dort said the firearms and equipment were ordered destroyed. Wydajewski appeared before San Diego Superior Court Judge Polly Shamoon last week and received credit for about 2 1/2 months in jail he has already served.
Other charges of disobeying previous court orders, vandalism, and assault of another woman were dismissed after he pleaded guilty to the additional charges on June 29, according to court records.
