Good For Thee: DEA Agent's "Previously Destroyed" Gun Parts Turn Up On Crime Scene As "Ghost Gun"
A report from the DOJ Office of the Inspector General reveals significant security lapses in the DEA and FBI's handling of employee-issued firearms pending destruction. "Ghost guns" made from previously destroyed government firearm parts, specifically slides and barrels, were recovered at crime scenes. The investigation highlighted inadequate storage and destruction protocols, allowing for potential theft and misuse of government property. The report criticizes the lack of accountability within these agencies compared to the strict penalties faced by civilians for similar offenses.
