Another Indiana case @SeesSeas - I'm really sorry to bother you on these "new" cases for you!

I search under his whole name: Austin Mark Smith.

 

[Reasonable & Just]

What on earth...how did he think it was a good idea to transport a loaded rifle like this? Why aren't people trained better? I'm assuming it was an "accident" and that she wasn't his hostage or something.
