The homeowner was raided by the FBI.  So they obviously had some something.



The fed's don't just raid folks unless they have a good reason.

The only thing that shocks is that no dogs were shot, kittahs weren't stomped, and no pregnant women were shoved around. Guess they had no dogs, cats, or pregnant women living in that house or they would have gotten the full treatment.

Wow what a fucking joke. I also completely agree with what the guy is saying, if someone is busting in your door while you are asleep you will have no idea what is going on and your first instinct may be to grab your weapon and defend your family. Which will more than likely just get you, your dog, and a few family members killed in the process. Good to know we have the police to protect us

Care to quote me?  If someone at the FBI is that bad at their job I'd have no problems with calling them out - not sure what the appropriate punishment/discipline would be though.  I find it hard to believe the FBI agent(s) made 'good faith' errors but I would like to hear their side of the story before saying they should be fired/executed(per FLA1A beliefs)/etc.

Fair enough, I am also very interested in how the FBI allowed this to happen, I know in the other thread we where discussing search warrants and how much PC is usually needed to execute one, would I be wrong to assume that there is at least a basic investigation before someone kicks down a door looking for someone under an arrest warrant?

Meh, the homeowner deserved everything he got.

They wouldn't have been there if he wasn't a criminal or didn't associate with criminals.

He's lucky he didn't come down with a weapon, they would have been perfectly justified in defending themselves.

They were serving a lawful warrant, and had every right to be there.

Or so I have been told, repeatedly.

Quite possibly, and all quite 'legal' I'm afraid.

hey "good faith" makes it all OK



Certainly, and, since you have a higher likelihood of being struck by lightning and bitten by a shark, at the same time, than you have SWAT showing up to your door by mistake, it's evident that the whole series of errors was, without question, an expression of God's will.

Since it would be fair to say that the men involved in SWAT operations are men created in god's image, then if the homeowner, or any members of his family, had been shot dead, well, that could only mean that they were needed in Heaven more than on Earth.

Or, so I've been told.


Seems like if there were that many humans getting bitten by sharks and hit by lightning simultaneously, we would have heard about it on the news.

There better be a basic investigation - IMO 'basic' will depend on the circumstances though.  Exigent circumstances allow you force entry "immediately" - but there will be some "basic investigation" involved.  Any warrant in CA authorizes forced entry.

A bench warrant for an unpaid parking ticket automatically allows for a no knock with no other factors involved (not that most departments would waste there SWAT teams time on a bench warrant for an unpaid ticket with no other risk factors involved, but still)? boy I feel safe.

Wow - way to extrapolate the GD fantasy out of what I said............  Forcing entry does not equal "no knock".

If myself and another patrol officer go to the last known address for Joe Public to serve a warrant and we see him through the window sitting on the couch but he refuses to come to the door after we've knocked and announced ourselves we could forcibly enter the residence (doesn't mean we will). That's a far cry from your "SWAT no-knock" scenario.

You'd think after the first 30 or so of these to happen this year that LE would:

1) Check right suspect
2) Check right address
3) Ensure suspect is still at the address

I had a SWAT team show up at my door.......asking for the whereabouts of my last neighbor.

I can't put into words the sinking feeling I got in my gut when I looked out the peephole to see a row of guys in body armor.

To their credit they were nice and had a laugh over a comment I made.  The warrant was for a pedo that skipped town......a year earlier.

But hey, this will never happen to YOU!

Not sure what the punishment should be?  

How about  they say to the senior guy " Dude, you are incompetent. You, and you alone, are responsible for the massive lawsuit headed our way. You are fucking fired, and we will do our best to ensure your incompetent ass never again works in any position of authority. By the way, we are starting a criminal investigation against you to find out just where you fucked up in the procedures, so we can ensure it never again happens in the department.
