might have been a shoulder holster

That's what I assumed but the article says "the lawyer allegedly brought a gun concealed on his waist"

An MRI is basically a gigantic fuck off strong magnet. There is a reason why you MUST remove all jewelry and piercings if you or a loved one you are in the room with is getting a scan.



It would rip the metal out of your body the moment it was activated if you didn't. Now imagine how that would affect a firearm.

Imagine finding out that your lawyer couldn't represent you because he was dumb enough to take a gun into an MRI room.

You'd feel like you dodged a bullet.

This apparently happened earlier this year. Though it could be a load of crap too.

Why wasn’t the safety on?

I had several MRI scans and you are always told to discard everything metal before the scan. There is even a big warning sign in the locker room. Even when I was already in the room, I was asked again if I had anything metal with me. So he had more than enough opportunities to get rid of it.

Most likely answer: they didn’t consider a gun a metal.

Let me guess,
they'll blame the gun and not the dumb guy

I'm gonna paraphrase what i wrote under a post where i found this:

Imagine being a staff member during the test and not a second after you turn this damn thing on the patient starts screaning in pain with a butt plug poking out his chest like a chestbuster from Alien.

This would scar me for life. FOR LIFE.
