I hope they know exactly what they are doing by letting this place burn, if some of what is supposedly in there survives the temperatures of the fire and gets cast about by the wind, it could be very, very bad. Keeping close tabs on the Zombie Forum for updates... |

Hmmmm... man is arrested. Evidence is "found" but can't be removed. Man has not been convicted yet. So they burn the house down. Something does not appear to be constitutionally correct here. Now, do I think this guy is innocent? Nope.... but I do think proper procedure is not being followed here. It goes like this.... 1. Individual is arrested and charged with a crime; this is possible because of probable cause, evidence, crime committed in presence of officer/official. Innocent until proven guilty. 2. Both the State and the Charged individual is prepare for the trial. Evidence is collected, statements are made, etc.... 3. Trial starts, evidence is presented, witnesses and charged individual testify, etc.... Trial ends and the jury decides. 4. If the charged individual is convicted, then the State can "remove" the explosives "safely". If burning it down is required, the State should reimburse the owner of the property (house) and also convicted individual for the lost property not related to the case. But of course in this day and age..... that's not going to happen. Shit like this pisses me off especially since I'm a LEO. I'm for defending the rights of others.... the State is not doing that. much as I believe this guy is guilty of even deeper crimes than bank robbery, this was my first thought too. I agree with you but according to a friend of mine "in the know" as it were, it ain't just grenades and improvised explosives in that house. There is supposedly some bad, bad things in there. Things of a non explosive nature. Some of the info has made it's way to the media, there is "unknown powder" in the home and I read something on another board about an official who went in that house having his arm blister after contacting one of the interior walls of the home. That is why they are making such a huge deal about the controlled burn (evacuating the entire neighborhood, shutting down a major freeway etc). Looks like overreaction to most, but I believe there is a very valid reason for the way they are handling this. I hope they know exactly what they are doing by letting this place burn, if some of what is supposedly in there survives the temperatures of the fire and gets cast about by the wind, it could be very, very bad. It is a conflicting situation for sure and they are not handling it all properly IMO. Have also read the city went out of it's way to get a ruling to declare the house a "public nuisance" thereby denying the owner of the property any compensation for his loss (it is a rental house). Poor guy will probably get stuck with the bill for hazmat cleanup too. Will be interesting to see what comes out in trial. Unique situation for sure and I am conflicted about the need preserve evidence and the right of the BG to a fair trial VS something very, very nasty getting out of that place and spreading. Well, besides the gardener it hadn't got out up to this point, what's a few more months or whatever until they let the trial run its course? On the surface, this certainly seems to be a pretty gross miscarriage of justice. Especially the part about not compensating the property owner. |

EOD guys, take a look - tell me they are not stringing det cord...

Fuck the Constitution.
Hell, Fuck the law. The law is what ever the state says it is, changing as the wind blows. Burn someone else's house down for alleged crimes committed by a renter... No trial, no jury. Somebody needs to start fighting back.... |

Talking head just said they will initiate the blaze by detonating small charges inside the house.... ummmmm

ok they backed off again... I could see them playing with the det-cord or whatever it was. It was getting tension on it off and on. COME ON! |
|
There it goes.
The State burning an innocent homeowners property for alleged crimes committed by a renter. Any evidence is now gone, assuming there ever was any. Liberty reigns. |
|
This is fucking stupid. They went from a contained, static HAZMAT situation to an extremely dynamic and not at all contained HAZMAT situation. I hope nobody gets hurt or sick down the road because of this.
ETA: Not to mention what he said^ |

Quoted:
that sounded like an small explosion Prolly spray cans going up - haven't seen any big kabooms yet. Really does set a lovely precedent, doesn't it? |

Talking head just said, " we have heard ammunition going off " - orly?

|
Quoted: I wonder what kind of toxic shit is spewing into the air? Nothing good. Hope this is hot enough to cook off what is in there or bad, bad things could be floating about right now. It does set a scary precedent though, for sure. Punitive destruction of property and evidence for "public safety" |
|
If there are people who like to make big booms as a hobby, they should AT THE VERY LEAST do it out in the middle of nowhere. This guy was just asking for trouble from the beginning.

Black smoke can be plastic burning, from the way they described the place, one would have expected to see a mushroom cloud the size of Rhode Island - experts: would the stuff he had safely thermally decompose in a fire or would we expect to see kabooms? |

Amazing how this guys and his family lived in this house for 4+ years, but it's too dangerous for the bomb squad to go in and remove the materials.
That guy must have been mad lucky to survive 4 years in that house, or something else is going on here that doesn't add up. |

I got $10 says the house on the right goes up in flames too...

wtf? ETA: WTF is burning just outside the front door? Natural cover. |

Next: ARFCOMMER's homes will burn because the authorities claim their homes are "weapons factories"
Then they burn the "evidence" before trial. |
