Okay... so...
I can't fault the cops here too much... They get a call about a burglary in progress. They find out the address they were sent to didn't exist. So they made an educated guess about which house. They happened to guess wrong. Of course, there was no right answer. Bad luck for the officers, and maybe they could've been a little gentler or something, but what are they supposed to do? |

The call to police said there might be a burglar inside 235 Southwest 4th Street. But there is no 235. Only 236 and 230.
Arriving police outside spotted someone inside 230 – Neville Scarlett was in the kitchen cleaning up the Easter dinner plates - and thought he might be the burglar. He was not. Moments earlier, the same person who called police also called the Scarlett’s to warn them about a possible burglar outside. Fearful, Carmita lowered the kitchen window shade. That’s when she heard someone hit the window with something metallic. She says she saw a gun pointed directly at her. Sounds relatively reasonable to me. I am by no means a cop defender or a holster sniffer, but this one doesn't sound all that bad. |

This seems to be one of the growing problems with LE today, looks like too much fucking guessing and very little verifying on the part of the LE followed by a lot of fucking attitude from them when they fuck up.

Burglars don't generally tidy up after Easter dinner. Morons. |

How much longer until a SWAT team no knocks a State Senator's house or Federal judge's home, that would be awesome and epic. Probably the beginning of the end for the no knock warrants.

ETA: "So what did you see upon arriving at the residence in question Officer Smith." "Well, as I entered the yard, and approached the window over the kitchen sink, I saw the suspect make a furtive movement with a bottle of dawn, a plate, and a dish scrubber. At that point I determined that the suspect was an immediate threat, so I drew down, and bladed at 45 degrees to deal with the situation sir. Can I has heroic award now please?" |

The cop said he felt threatened by a woman washing dishes in her pajamas! Time for that cop to find a new job that involves a mop and bucket of soapy water. |

Yeah, I guess maybe I'm too accustomed to "cops raid wrong house with SWAT team and hold family in their PJs in the snow at 6am for 30 minutes" and "cop chases roofer inside and shoots him", and this, by comparison, just doesn't do much to get my meter jumping. |

It sounds like a setup, trying to cause someone to get killed. Possibly an attack against the police, or the judge. |

Either that judge is going to be the darling of the FOP by showing grace and restraint, or she's going to have a cops head mounted on a pike in her chambers. It's her choice as far as I can tell.

Perhaps I am ignorant and naive, but I don't see why every single no knock raid isn't staked out by officers on the scene to make damn sure they've got the right address.
Don't trust what your dispatcher tells you or what you see on some piece of paper. Don't make a move until you've confirmed with your own eyes that what you're doing is right. If this means staking out a location for hours to see if Johnny Crackhead goes into or out of the house then so be it. |

About 10 years ago I was back in the woods deer hunting behind the house. Other then my house and the landlords, the nearest house is about a half mile away. After a few hours I casually make my way back to the house with my rifle and my brother in law came by asked where I had been. I told him and he asked "you didn't hear all the commotion?" I said no. He said he just happened to be driving by a little while ago and the house was surrounded by cops. Cop cars everywhere. So he pulls in to see whats going on. He said they were looking for a bad guy. They wouldn't go in the house but had my BIL go in and look for me.
A little while later dispatch calls and says they have the wrong address. BIL said they all jumped in their cars and went tearing down the road. I'm glad I came home when I did instead of suddenly appearing out of the woods with a gun in my hands. |
