Gun violence restraining orders were sold to the public as a last resort. If everything else fails, we can stop someone who is about to do something terrible. Most people, including most gun owners, thought that sounded reasonable.
Then some city attorneys, district attorneys and police departments started running them as standard operating procedure. Gun owner, any violation, file the order. We asked San Diego County Sheriff Kelly Martinez what her office actually does, and the number is far smaller than most people assume.
In this interview:
- Why the Second Amendment community was never against protective orders, and still is not
- What changed when gun violence restraining orders arrived, and how they get used now
- Orders used vindictively, predatorily, and between roommates who simply do not like each other
- The cost of getting back out: money, time, and damage to a reputation that does not repair
- Where SDCGO draws the line: sane, trained and law-abiding, all three or we are not standing up for you
- The Sheriff's actual numbers for her jurisdiction, temporary and permanent
- Fifteen days to court, evidence from all parties, and a judge making the final call
- Why the City of San Diego's usage looks nothing like the county's
- The enforcement gap Dakota raises that she cannot answer: when a judge orders relinquishment and the paperwork never comes back, who goes and gets the guns
Full interview with Sheriff Kelly Martinez in the Episode 520 full show.
