Man gets his gun back nine months after domestic altercation and uses it to shoot and kill his wife

An Alabama police officer shot and killed his wife after getting back his gun back from law enforcement who had taken it because of previous domestic abuse allegations.

Megan Montgomery, 31, told doctors in February 2019 that her husband, officer Jason McIntosh, had shot her. She was taken to the emergency room in Birmingham Alabama with a gunshot wound in her upper right arm.

Police took McIntosh’s gun away. Despite that domestic violence charges were pending and a protective order was active, Alabama’s top law enforcement agency deemed it safe to give the gun back to McIntosh. Just 16 days passed before he used the gun to kill his wife during an argument.
