Gun shop found liable in shooting of two...
#7
So as normal, there is more to the story. From other stories I read the negligence issue is because the underage kid basically walked around and picked out the gun, the clerk then helped his friend fix his application after he filled out incorrectly showing he wasn't going to be the owner of the gun, and the clerk did not properly verify the purchasers identity. All of these items combine show a disregard or at the least gross negligence of the proper procedures and gun laws required for them to sell the weapon.

Remember this is a civil case so they just need to show that it is more likely than not that the gun shop acted negligently, which the jury believes it did. I don't see this one getting over turned after all the facts are actually looked at.

Side note: Each story added items and left others out so it really is hard to try and piece together the whole picture.
