Late one night in February 2019, a 31-year-old woman in a troubled marriage was rushed to an emergency room in a Birmingham, Alabama, suburb, with a gunshot wound in her upper right arm.
Jason McIntosh, 46, from Birmingham, Alabama, was handed the pistol despite being subject to a restraining order and 16 days later used it to kill 31-year-old Megan Montgomery.
The Montgomery’s family’s
‘worst fears’ were soon realized, as McIntosh used the returned weapon to kill her 16 days later.
‘We talked to her about it,’ her mother
Susann Montgomery-Clark told NBC about McIntosh’s violent temper,
‘but we didn’t know how bad it was.’
‘So the restraining order can prohibit him from ‘contacting, phoning, texting, harassing, stalking,’ but oh by the way, you can have a gun? That’s ridiculous,’ said Montgomery-Clark.
‘She knew if she left [him], she would be killed.’
‘Irrational and illogical…’ decision to return gun
McIntosh’s own lawyer expressed shock that he got his weapon returned.
