Even if some weren't legal, what are they going to do.... arrest a dead man??

All the clean, legal ones could net the LAPD some good money if they sold them off. Then they could invest in bodycams!

The police can only seize and auction guns if there's evidence of a crime. If not, they have to treat it like any other kind of property and pass it to the dead guys next of kin. Like it or not, that's state law.

Of course, this being California, the person inheriting it will need to pay the registration fees for both the handguns and long guns, and go through the background checks. With that many guns, that's going to be a nice pile of coin.

If ANY of the guns were stolen or illegally imported, then the police can seize the whole pile and do whatever they want with them.

Hundreds of thousands of dollars (if not stolen) in guns and ammo. I guess they were safe from the gov'ment.

when they could pry his cold dead fingers from the grips.


Oh, well, sometimes things do really get strange.
