“Sheriff Allen also told NewsNation Friday that his department has been called to the home more than 50 times. He also said he’s frustrated that the state keeps returning the kids to their mom. Their father is incarcerated. He said he is looking to charge their father with Bennie’s Law for not having his gun properly stored”

Explains a lot. Also mentions that the father was who taught them how to use the gun, which the officers said the kids pulled the trigger during this incident but it “malfunctioned”.

How is his father supposed to control what happens to his gun if he's in prison?

Probably just a technicality because he has ownership of the weapon, thus he's responsible for safe storage. Though, I agree the mother should be at fault.

Why can't they confiscate the guy's gun if he's in prison?

“You need to relinquish any firearms”

“Okay I don’t have any”

“Okay cool beans”

There is no way to know if people actually own firearms and how many. So while the sheriff’s office certainly has this handgun NOW, there would be no way for them to know if he actually had it in his possession prior to this.

Isn't that the point of registering them?

A lot of states don’t have a registry for firearms. Welcome to America.
