Police: Soccer mom video chatting when shot - USATODAY.com
The weapon was taken from her wrongfully but it was returned : "Hain made headlines in 2008 when she attended a soccer game of her daughter, then 5, at a park with a Glock handgun holstered on her hip in plain view.
Nine days later, the sheriff revoked her license to carry and conceal a gun, citing a state law that prohibits certain gun permits from being given to people whose characters and reputations make them dangers to public safety.
A county judge overturned that decision but questioned Hain's judgment and said she had "scared the devil" out of people at the Sept. 11, 2008, game."
The contention that the original confication of her weapon in 2008 causing her death is falacious becasue "Officials on Friday said her gun was in a backpack when she was killed. Scott Hain, a parole officer, owned the 9 mm handgun he used to kill her. "
The weapon was in her possession at the time she was killed therefore the confiscation of 2008 had absolutely nothing to do with her death.
Sorry but this statement of yours = "It seems to me that the idiot cop who confiscated her weapon caused her death. If I were the family, I would sue." is just not supported by reality.
