Woman Sues Chicago After Being Shot by Gun from Buyback Program
 
AWR Hawkins14 Aug 2025668
 
Twanda Willingham is suing the city of Chicago after being shot with a pistol that had been “relinquished to Chicago police at a gun turn-in event,” according to the NRA-ILA.


FOX 32 reported Willingham was shot in August 2023 with a Glock 21 “surrendered months earlier at a Chicago Police Department gun buyback.”

Willingham subsequently filed suit against Chicago, after it was discovered the gun had allegedly “disappeared while in transit between the [location of the buy back event] and a nearby police station—just blocks apart.”

It just proves even a city as safe and well run as Chicago, bad things can happen. :headbang:

C'mon now... You just spent your whole damn day handing out food cards and gift cards, trading em for guns... All day long listening to whiney-ass John Q. Public... Putting up with it...

And you're finally done at the end of the day, driving off with at least a suitcase full of hardware, maybe 1 in 10 ain't a piece of crap...  But those 1 in 10 are worth something like 500 bucks each, and you are driving em off to get dumped into a smelter.

It don't take a rocket scientist to work out this math.

Priceless.  Normally, I frown on civil actions of this nature.  But I believe this woman has a good case.
