30. He's on probation for assault with a weapon...

He pulled a gun on a family and threatened to kill them all. I’m researching whether he did this before or after the car accident and alleged brain injury. This is going to blow up, I fear. I called and emailed the court who released this guy in the hope of rattling a few cages. Letting him out of jail seems incredibly unreasonable to me. Brockway appears in court here in Missoula on August 14th before judge John Larson...I’m hopeful the tRump defense doesn’t play well there.
