The big question is, why would he be showing her a gun when the family repeatedly said that she did not like guns? She probably didn't even know he was about to show her one. When I was 22 I was terrified of guns and the sight of one in person would send me into a panic. Any time someone offered to show me a gun I refused. In no scenario would I have agreed to look at anyone's gun ever. Based on her familys statement on her stance with guns, I imagine she would have refused too. Her father had to have mislead her in some way to get her into that room. That's the issue. This case needs to be revisited. I think something was overlooked.
