Another Approach

KY,

Sounds like your wife has had a mental breakdown of one sort or another...

I'm not a shrink or a lawyer (and proud of the fact) but I do know a bit about the subject and may be able to offer a modest suggestion.

First, talk to your attorney... because you are still legally married you can take action to compel her to get medical (read psyco) help. Clearly she needs intervention.

Ask you lawyer what you have to do to get a court order for involuntary committiment to a mental hospital... she is dangerous to herself and others and her actions are not rational.

Committment will get here medical help and may resolve some of her problems. Worst case, you will find your situation improved by her being in a locked ward and not on the streets.

She may not thank you for your help... but it is the least you can do.

Chuck...

I just got home. I was downtown at my attorney's office. I've thought of looking into the "commitment" angle. I believe, at the very least, her guns and CCW should be taken away by SOMEONE.
Of all the crazy people I've encountered, every single one of them is a terrific shot. My ex is downright great. It's spooky! I don't know anybody else who can group all five shots of .38 special in an area less than 3 inches apart at 75 feet. (Two inch barrel!) Can you do that? I can't.

KR - I just got back from a trip & saw this thread.

I'm so sorry you're having to go through something like this. It sounds like you've been given some pretty good advice & I can't add anything to it.

Just remember that you have some pretty good friends here on THR. If you need ANYTHING, just let us know - if it's something one person is unable to help with, I'll bet there are many others who can. There's a lot of support available from all the great folks who hang out here. We "gun nuts" need to look out for each other.

Take care & keep us posted,

R-Tex

Getting your guns back

This business about her giving your guns to third parties sounds like shes trying to get you alone.I wouldn't meet with her without another person (a good friend or a LEO )close at hand. Just my opinion. Mike

I figured that I could get away with it, if I said it in Spanish...
