The USAF failed to report a member who plead guilty to domestic violence to NICS. The man purchased a firearm and murdered 26 people at a Texas church.
"A federal judge in Texas ruled Monday that the Air Force must pay more than $230 million to survivors and victims' families for the church shooting that killed over two dozen people.
The shooter, Devin Patrick Kelley, should not have been able to buy a gun since he received a bad conduct discharge after pleading guilty to two counts of domestic violence.
But the Air Force failed to enter his name into the National Criminal Information Center, and Kelley was able to pass a background check and buy at least two guns because of this failure."
