OLYMPIA, Wash. - The state Department of Social and Health Services is
starting to give names of mentally ill people who can't own handguns to
the FBI.
Police and gun shop owners use the list of names in the National Instant
Criminal Background Check System (NICS) to screen people buying guns.
The department says the computer will not identify people as mentally
ill but will say they are "state disqualified." If a court restores a
person's right to own a firearm the name will be removed from the
computer system.
The department says Washington is the first state to submit the names of
mentally ill people to the national computer database.
