A man in Indiana choked a dog to death three weeks ago and threw the carcass in the dumpster. When that deed was discovered and the suspect taken to the hospital for observation, he was released and allowed to go back home. A week later, he performed another violent act and again was released and allowed to go back home.   Yesterday, he bludgeoned his own grandfather to death with a cast iron skillet.    So I believe the comment about Indiana having some kind of law for police to remove a weapon (be it a gun or skillet) if there is reason to believe that person is dangerous is inaccurate. If Indiana did have such a law, the police certainly didn't follow through.
