Family Plans to Destroy Stockpile of Inherited Guns and Ammo Worth Millions, Lawyer Says
By CATHERINE THORBECKE Jun 22, 2016, 4:56 PM ET
Family members set to inherit a stockpile of guns and ammunition, worth millions of dollars, plan to destroy the weapons "to send a message," their attorney Daniel Brookman told ABC News today.
"They want these instruments of death to be destroyed," Brookman said. "They don’t want these weapons out on the street."
Jeffrey A. Lash, of Pacific Palisades, California, died last summer of natural causes, but left behind a stockpile of more than 1,500 guns, 6.5 tons of ammunition and nearly $250,000 in cash, according to local ABC-owned station KABC-TV. All of the purchases were legally made, KABC reported.
The reason Lash amassed such a collection remains a complete mystery.
