I don't know about police departments in California, but in my county, police officers must register their personal firearms if the said firearms are carried while on-duty. How will she explain her lost gun to mysteriously turn up in a foreign country thousands of miles away. It will take 2 seconds for them to figure out she was connecting or visiting that country. Another 2 seconds to figure out that she was lying about a lost/stolen gun. Most likely she'll be fired and possibly face prosecution somewhere.
Self-surrendering was the best course of action.
Sure, she may get in some trouble, but if it was an honest mistake, she'll probably face nothing more than a reprimand.
It's the TSA guys at LAX who must be sweating like hogs right now...
I'm really having a hard time wrapping my brain around how someone who has an 8-year old child and who packs heat for a living "forgets" where their personal firearm is.

I really do know how the system is supposed to work. I also know LA pretty well.
