Parents’ Gun Safety Failures Under Scrutiny

A gun violence restraining order was filed against Marco Vazquez, father of one of the mosque shooting suspects, after authorities found over a dozen firearms at his home — and he refused to let police inspect storage. The case exposes the tension between law enforcement and mental health systems, where intervention often waits for a legal violation. Vazquez later declared he’d removed nearly 30 weapons, restricted his son’s internet, and kept him under therapy supervision — but said guns wouldn’t be returned until both he and the teen’s therapist deemed it safe. The family admitted those steps weren’t enough to stop the teen’s mental instability. Now, investigators are probing whether either parent could face criminal charges for negligence — or if they did everything possible to prevent the tragedy. The mother of the other suspect also told police weapons were missing on the day of the attack. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
