"Based upon what I know, he had foreseeable and discernable psychiatric issues a few months ago," said Michael Carpenter, a former Maine attorney general who was serving in the state Senate four years ago when the "yellow flag" law was negotiated. "I think this law was designed, absolutely designed for this kind of a situation."

.... As part of a deal negotiated with gun owners' rights advocates, the law also requires a medical professional to determine that the person poses a risk after they've been taken into protective custody by police.

"I don't know that that happened," said Carpenter, a Democrat who lives in Houlton. "My guess is it didn't happen. And that's the tragedy of this. The law is only going to work if the people do what they're supposed to do."
