Family Plans to Destroy Stockpile of Inherited Guns and Ammo Worth Millions, Lawyer Says

Family members set to inherit a stockpile of guns and ammunition, worth millions of dollars, plan to destroy the weapons "to send a message," their attorney Daniel Brookman told ABC News today.

"They want these instruments of death to be destroyed," Brookman said. "They don’t want these weapons out on the street."

Jeffrey A. Lash, of Pacific Palisades, California, died last summer of natural causes, but left behind a stockpile of more than 1,500 guns, 6.5 tons of ammunition and nearly $250,000 in cash, according to local ABC-owned station KABC-TV. All of the purchases were legally made, KABC reported.

Good. They're misinformed crusaders. Better they destroy them than sell them and give the money to gun control groups.

Stupid is as stupid does.....

Good point!

You gotta wonder if all the heirs are on board or if one person maybe made that statement. That is a lot of loot to destroy, especially if that is the bulk of this person's wealth. But then they do weird stuff in Cali.

You can pick your friends.........but ...excuse me while I check my will.

I only have one relative besides the wife and daughter but he is in California...
Perhaps I should see to my Will as well?

 

[mnrivrat]

No shortage of firearms to purchase. If they want to throw away or distroy a sizable amount of their wealth ,then I think they have the right to be ignorant.

I hope they plan to toss that $250k in fire as well. They wouldn't want to be seen spending some dudes money that owned 6 tons of ammo. What would the guys at the country club think?

The government seized the guns and ammo. I wonder how much the storage fees will be.

 

[evan price]

Meh. They weren't mine, never would be mine, and they are just possessions. They can do what they want with their stuff.
My interpretation of the "message" is that they have more money than sense.

^^ what he said.

Man hate guns or not wish I was well off enough to burn a few mill for a message

 

[alexander45]

On that note if they really wanted to do something about violent crime in the usa they would be better off selling the guns and giving the money to a food bank or affordable housing project

 

[buck460XVR]

I'm with Evan,

Their property, their right to do whatever they want with it, even if we don't agree. Kinda the way it works.

 

[saltydog]

Their doing so is no worse than what our Government does to tax payer funded weapons that our Military uses.

 

[ACP]

America, freedom of speech, etc. Love it or leave it.

 

[Walkalong]

They "Had a revelation".

Yep, free country, but I wonder who is behind the media coverage.

 

[CajunBass]

As long as they don't want to do the same thing to mine, it's OK with me.

 

[pockets]

"his first cousins and closest relatives" are who the article says is making this call.

But wait....This gets even weirder....
Jeffrey A. Lash the guy who's decomposing body they found near his home in the car trunk last July!
He claimed to be an alien hybrid.
He had a fiance then; Catherine Nebron.....she drove his body around for awhile because she believed his 'agency' would recover it.
It is whack-a-doo central out there apparently.

 

[bannockburn]

Too bad they're so narrow minded and fixed on this agenda. I'm sure there are a number of local law enforcement agencies that could probably use some of that ammo for practice, qualification, or for on duty use.

 

[Salmoneye]

This is the case of Jeffrey Alan Lash...

The relatives may just want out as there is some question as to who he really was, and how the guns and ammo were acquired, and why...

[Slamfire]

The owners will be sorry once someone tells them what the equivalent value of those guns are in cases of Jack Daniels and cartons of cigarettes.

 

[jmorris]

Figures, only an alien would leave millions of dollars to someone that wanted to destroy it...
