A squad of heavilly armed cops raided a Long Island home Wednesday and removed a man, possibly for questioning in connection with the cold-blooded murders of four people in a pharmacy. The still unidentified man was hauled out of the Medford, L.I., home by police officers who had massed in front of the residence before barging inside. ETA for photo |

Bad raid!!
They should have sent the volunteer community officer up there to ring his doorbell and asked if he had killed several poeple. If he answered yes then they should have raided. Damn cops don't do any cop work anymore, they just want to play with their toys. |

Couple comments.
1) Arrest warrant, not a search warrant. 2) Murder 3) The murders came about because of a drug robbery. Legal drugs. |
|
hopefully they got their man. This guy did not hesitate to kill 4. Drugs make you do some crazy shit to feed the need...

Obviously fake cops. |
|
Shouldn't they just have sent a Detective and a Uniform to knock on his door for 5 minutes loudly announcing they were the police after running every tone on the siren box for an hour, after calling ahead to the resisdence to inform them they would be doing all that?
|
|
If that's the son of a bitch who did it I hope he rots in Hell.
|
|
My guess is that the dude in custody knows the dude who did it.......
Maybe they're gonna lean on him to get to the killer. |

Looks like the suspect "tripped" while running or resisting. |

The drugs are legal with written permission of a physician, provided that the person requesting the drugs has complied with the law in making his request and has consensually obtained them from a government-approved vendor. Otherwise, and certainly for this robber, they were illegal. In Florida, you can do 30 years in prison for possession of a couple of weeks' worth of Vicodin if they are illegal because not obtained through the proper channels. Whatever point you hoped to make by the claim that the drugs in question were legal fails because you are wrong on the facts. Tell us about a drug robbery for Tylenol or Benadryl if you wish to make a connection between drugs and crime unconnected to prohibition. |

There is a big difference between a no knock raid to execute a search warrant and a no knock raid to execute an arrest warrant for a murder suspect. Agreed. Im far from a police apologist, however, it's important that those of us with legitimate concerns on these matters point out examples of appropriate use of no-knocks so as to provide contrast to inapropriate use. |

I hope it's him. I'd hate to see this end up like the Lane Bryant Massacre in Chicago a few years ago where they never figured out who the shooter was.

Tell us about a drug robbery for Tylenol or Benadryl if you wish to make a connection between drugs and crime unconnected to prohibition. They are still legal drugs. Guns are legal but not to a felon. The point I was making was that just because the gov says some drugs are good, changes nothing. There's a "war on drugs" because "drugs kill" and "drugs are destroying blah blah" but only on a small handful of types of drugs. Why so defensive.... |

He was arrested on probable cause. If it were the cop's would not be able to talk to the suspect. But all of the ARF legal experts already knew that. And don't worry he will talk. |

Sorry pal but that info will be in the supporting deposition not on ARF or in the newspaper. Search warrants are a important tool used by police everyday and will continue to be used regardless of the opinion of the keyboard commando's of ARF. |

Shame of it is we don't have a Death Penalty in NY
Had this fucker come thru my Jail 15-20 years ago we would have made his stay " uncomfortable " Now we just about tuck them in at night |

Assuming they have overwhelming evidence, I wouldn't care if they had burned him out if facing resistance. |

Highlight's of investigation:
Cop's show surveillance video to public. Cop's receive several tips as to the suspects ID. Cop's show witness who saw suspect fleeing scene photo array. Witness picks out suspect. Brass recovered from scene matches brass on file of suspects registered handgun. (Required for all handguns sold in NYS) Cop's stakeout suspects house. Suspect is seen leaving and quickly returning back inside home. Cop's boom door and take suspect into custody. Suspects resists arrest. That does not work out for him. Suspects placed in line and ID'ed by witness. Suspect arraigned on Murder 1*. Unknown if suspects or wife made incriminating statements yet. |

"A pill-popping, gun-loving Army vet and his junkie wife were charged Wednesday night in the cold-blooded massacre of four innocent people at a Long Island pharmacy."
Nope, no bias in that paragraph. |

Somehow I knew the bad raid apologists would be here to applaud a good raid. A murder ARREST WARRANT is grounds for a no-knock. Some kid buying less than an ounce of weed is not. Please, end your faggotry.

From what I've read, his wife has already flipped on him. she's only facing robbery charges.

Quote from the NY post
But by Monday, police were staking out his house on Pitchpine Place after receiving a dozen tips identifying him as the man in the video, sources said. In addition to outside tips, the Special Narcotics Prosecutor's Office supplied Suffolk County Police with a list of possible suspects that included David Laffer. Laffer was one of several names given to Suffolk County Police because he lived in the area, had gotten prescriptions from Haven Pharmacy in the past and he had a gun permit.

Please, end your faggotry. For the second time NO ARREST WARRENT WAS ISSUED IN THIS CASE. The suspect was arrested on probable cause. For a arrest warrant to be issued an accusatory instrument would have to be filled in the case and the right to an attorney automatically attached. Meaning the cop's could not speak to the suspect. All of this back and forth about arrest/ search warrants that goes on here will never amount to a hill of beans. Search warrant are a valuable tool of law enforcement that are legal in this country and will continue to be used regardless of the opinion of ARF. |

By the way, he's ex-Army. Was in for 8 years and only made PFC. I don't know how it usually works, but that seems ridiculously slow to me. Is it? |

Is it? that means he's just continuing old habits.... and I doubt he did 8 - probably 4 of those were his mandatory time if he was active, reserve/guard he *may* have done 8 but only making PFC means he was busted down/non-rec'd |
