Texas Shooter’s Assault On Wife And Child May Have Disqualified Him From Owning A Gun

The now deceased San Antonio shooter may have illegally possessed the weapon he used to slaughter and seriously injure church attendees in Sutherland Springs, Texas on Sunday.

Devin Patrick Kelley used an AR-15 style rifle to kill 26 people and wound 20 others, authorities said, making it the deadliest mass shooting in the Lone Star State’s history.

“At approximately 11:20 this morning a suspect was seen at a Valero gas station in Sutherland Springs, Texas,” said Freeman Martin, a major in the Texas Rangers and a spokesman for the Texas Department of Public Safety. “He was dressed in all black. That suspect crossed the street to the church, exited his vehicle and began firing at the church.”

Kelley had a bad conduct discharge from the U.S. Air Force in 2014 after being court-martialed in November 2012 as a result of assaulting both his wife and his child, The Daily Beast reported. The assault should have precluded Kelley from owning a firearm.
