[QUOTE="SoonerP226, post: 4216978, member: 26737"] For starters, being arrested for a crime and being convicted of a crime aren't the same thing. It could've been that she was a suspect but was exonerated (e.g, she matched a description but had an alibi) for some of the arrests, or there could've been insufficient evidence to file the charges, or she could've taken a plea bargain where she was convicted of a misdemeanor instead of a felony, or they could've all been misdemeanor complaints. The part about the emergency detention doesn't necessarily matter for NICS--she would've needed to appear before the judge and be "adjudicated mentally deficient," which doesn't appear to have been the case. There's also the possibility that any relevant legal action (felony convictions) weren't reported to the Feds, but I wouldn't expect that to be the case in a municipality the size of Houston. There's certainly a lot of smoke in her background, but apparently no fire. [/QUOTE]
