I’m not sure how I feel about this one:

Allegedly, a woman’s estranged husband tries to kill her by running her off the road. While he is in jail, she allegedly goes over to his place, takes his guns, and gives them to the cops because she is afraid that he would try to kill her again if released. The police then arrest her for theft of a firearm.
I’m pretty sure that the woman mishandled her fear and should have considered other options. If the reporting is accurate and complete, I’m almost positive that the police are mishandling this by charging her with a felony - not to mention the damage that will be done to 2nd Amendment causes once the politicians and victims advocates are done with this issue. I could see a felony if the woman had destroyed the weapons or sold them for profit. That is not the case here and I’m not sure that someone in fear for their life has the necessary criminal intent to justify a felony when she immediately takes the stollen property to the cops.
