How a SWAT team upended my baby’s life — and got away with it
This is really really disgusting.
How do these Cops sleep at night? :mad: http://www.salon.com/2014/10/10/it_b..._away_with_it/ Quote:

Oh they do have many bad nights, no doubt. We should pity the poor cops.
I wonder who they were after that 'justified' the military-style assault? |

If you desire to blame something, blame an asinine and Republican (Nixon) launched War on Drugs not professionals paid to carry it out, using methods deemed legal, with tools readily available. |

According to you the Cops can do no wrong. Blow a hole in a babies chest with a flashbang grenade? No Problem! Just well trained professionals doing their job. |
Grand juries are tools of prosecutors, who can control the process enough to be pretty certain of getting the indictments they want, and virtually assured of not getting the ones they don't.
Given the presence of multiple children in the home, I must question whether due diligence was employed in verifying the targeting the house. In any case, only a previous record of assault on officers would justify the pre-emptive employment of weapons like 'flash-bangs,' and 'firing blind' with any weapon is negligent on the face of it. I have no doubt that the family will recover for civil negligence in this case, unless the police are shielded by special provisions of the law in their favor. The only thing to discuss is whether the use of the flash-bang weapon in the circumstances rises to the level of criminal assault. I'm sure it would in the case of civilians, but again, the police may have special immunity under the law. |
Tell me Zeke, would you toss a flash-bang into a dark room without knowing who was in it, to catch a person wanted for drug dealing, but not for a violent crime?

I might.
There are TONS of potential factors involved. |
Nice dodge.
So tell us a few of these tons of factors, that would make it Ok to toss a flash-bang into a dark room without knowing who was in it, to catch a person wanted for drug dealing, but not for a violent crime. |
