OLYMPIA, Wash. — A new state law signed Tuesday could prevent situations like the one that cost a Spokane woman her life last year.

Sheena Henderson was killed by her husband with a weapon police had given back to him without her knowledge.

A year later – the newly-signed “Sheena Henderson Act” will allow family members to ask police to tell them if a person with mental health or domestic violence issues is about to be given back a gun police took away.

The bill passed both legislative chambers unanimously.
