    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.
