    If you wonder why the police kicked a door in guns blazing for a $200 yard tool st 11:50 PM, it’s because the tool belonged to a judge. Also, they were outside their jurisdiction, and there’s no evidence they actually had a warrant.

    Based on the video, it was probably one single cop who fired all the shots. His or her name should be plastered all over the headlines as a murderer who hasn’t been arrested despite video evidence of the slaying.

      Don’t downplay thee rest of them that were outside of their jurisdiction doing a midnight raid for a weed eater when the suspect was already in custody.

      Every person involved is guilty as hell, and that judge should face charges.

        Let’s say that person had been killed, and no one heard the shots and called it in…

        Would the executive judge had really continued complaining about this weed eater and would the “suspect” have remained in custody? No, it’s bullshit, they would have deleted that paperwork, let the “suspect” go, and that person being killed would be unsolved. They likely created all that bullshit in case someone called it in before the dirty cops could leave. That’s no fucking accident because there would be no reason to do a midnight no knock raid with a suspect in custody.

    This is pretty insane. They have the guy in custody that sold them the address he stored the stollen goods at. The city police go to the wrong address, outside their jurisdiction, at 11:50PM. They didn’t even inform the local county police whose jurisdiction this would be in. The address was repeated multiple times by the dispatcher and should have been on the warrant.

    Multiple officers are joined on the search with gun drawn ARs. After knocking on a door and a brief wait, when most people would be sleeping, they kick the door down and are “surprised” the person in the home responds with grabbing thier weapon and shoot him dead.

    Then, an FOI act is requested for the warrant non are found. All of this is none over a weed eater that is pretty useless in the winter and run on average $150-$250 for most models.

    This is a major mess up and all officers involved should be jailed

      Outside their jurisdiction? Isn’t that just straight up murder since they had no legal right to enforce any lass there?

        I am not a lawyer. The article mentions this should have involved the county police being notified and/or present during the raid, but this did not occur, according to the article.

      Was it a mess up? Seems like a very convenient “accident.”

      A lot of these people, judges police etc, are all part of the same social clubs. Piss off one bee and rest come after you.

      I don’t believe anyone, even the average “I can’t believe I barely got my high school diploma” police officer, is that stupid.

      No, there was some reason they wanted this person dead. It’s just that no one has found it yet.

        I am not a conspiracy theorist and don’t want to speculate. I am sharing what I could gather from the article. As far as the article and the deceased’s family, no connection has been established between the police, judge/cictim of th theft, or thief.

    How many more of these before we start to see some justice? Everyone knows what needs to happen.

    Edit: Got a 3 day ban from lemmy.world admins for “advocating violence.” LMAO. Funniest part is, I never advocated violence. How do you know I didn’t mean “everyone knows the cops need more donuts?” Purely in their own imagination, they decided that I must mean something violent. What a sad existence these “admins” must have.

    Now watch them reban me in retalliation for calling out their idiocy. That’s ok, there are other instances.

    If the police enter your home, even if they have a warrant, and you shoot them. How can the police ever claim that it wasn’t self defense, especially in areas where these things happen?

    And that is why gun rights are human rights. Also intrusion detection sensor rights and automatic turret rights. Automatic flamethrower turret rights, for the smell of burnt flesh to indicate consummation of civil freedoms.
