The cops relied on an informant who gave the wrong address. The man the cops were looking for had an ankle monitor and could have been electronically located.

Ms. Young obtained body cam video via the Freedom of Information Act; the city of Chicago sued to prevent publication.

Even if Miss Young were a known criminal the cops had no business treating her that way. It's a disgrace.

Poor Democrat cops, not even a pet dog to shoot.

I’m generally pro-police, but the War-on-Drugs creates crap like this.

The war is over. We lost. Let druggies go be druggies.

John Wayne would not have done this, nor would he put up with it.

She should sue the police department, the CI and the idiot judge that issued the warrant.

It’s much safer to arrest law-abiding citizens than actual criminals.

LOL! After several hit with the battering ram on an outward opening door one cop asks for the crowbar.

When someone invades your home, you have the right to defend yourself, with deadly force, if necessary. The wrongful invaders will shoot back and kill you. Thus the government has the power to kill you without consequence.

The cops relied on an informant who gave the wrong address.

On Peter Gunn character Lt. Jacoby used to rely on Gunn's "friends in low places" who gave precise and accurate information for a few dollars.

The factual element is some real life Chicago police are too stupid to do it right.

Elsewhere, some mistaken addrsess shooting of a place next door in some city was in the news a while ago. And locally police shot some rounds that went through the thin apartment walls and hurt the innocent neighbors and the cops found out the original bad guy listed at the first apartment was actually out of town, anyway. Be careful, guys.

Heck, if she had just told them she had a house full of hacked Dominion voting machines and blank Biden ballots, they would have left in a hurry.

Too bad her lawyer is trying to make it a racial thing.

It’s not.

Come on everyone. Jump on the back the blue bandwagon. Cops good, BLM/Antifa bad. See it’s so simple. Well except when the cops shoot dogs, raid random houses, protect Democrats and punish conservatives, watch old people being attacked, release bombers while incarcerating home defenders (or worse Kyle) ... I don’t back the blue or the red communists. They are all playing for the same team - big nanny deal state.

Truly horrifying. She deserve a huge settlement and a lot of cops need to be unemployed.

I see a future lottery winner, at least low six figures. And in this case will have earned every penny of it. Puts a new spin on “body cam”.

Chicago pays out oodles a year.

You know these modern cop shows have this diverse group of supercops chasing, usually, white supremists, and saving the day, solving every crime every time.

They are so phoney.

If they were realistic, I think they’d show cops not caring and filing and forgetting reports, and then ‘roiding up to raid the wrong house and shooting the dog.

The sad thing is this lady was traumatized beyond what we
could imagine. She will live with this until her death. She
will win a settlement in a court of law as she should and the
tax payers will have to pay for malfeasance in the Dept.

The Dept will be fined, chastised and will carry on. Any
financial award to the Lady will be borne by the Taxpayers.

This affects me in a whole other way. Back in the day, I had confidence that cops would do what was right if they could. I always pictured military and cops turning down an unlawful order. Back when Clinton was POTUS, He circulated a survey around a couple of California military bases and about 92% said they would refuse an order to fire on Americans to confiscate their guns, even if the Supreme Court ok'd it. Right after that Waco happened. Since then I'm almost positive if Biden calls for gun confiscation 80+% would say Yes sir and move forward.

My Daughter is LE and assures me no one she knows would do such a thing, even if a law was passed. We have the 2nd Amendment and Posse Comitatis and other insurances against such a thing. Democrats seem to think we will react like Britain or Australia, but I think you and I know better. I told my daughter that she would be the first one shot if she approached a door for that.

These guys obviously kicked her door in not knowing ANYTHING!! The caliber of LE is falling to the McDonald's fry cook level. They must realize every day that they are about to violate a citizens rights every time an action happens so they better be in the right! What if this woman had a gun and blasted the door not knowing who was coming in? What if they came in shooting and placed about 32 rounds in her body like what happened in Philly awhile back? I don't want to say her name. Being Law Enforcement shouldn't be taken this lightly and they need to be able to recognize lawful actions at a glance.

This is something that will have to be figured out very quickly by both sides because gun confiscation will be very quick on the Biden agenda. I will not pay a tax and register, and I'm not giving mine up. Either way I will probably be a felon with nothing left to lose. Here's a guy with nothing more than a few traffic tickets over 69 years turned into a subversive desperate felon overnight all because Law Enforcement lost their perspective. Being a left over patriot from the 60's I've been trained all my life to kill commies. I just didn't think it would be in the US.

Disgusting...and I’m not talking about the size of the blurred bubble to hide her naked body.

But also thankful for blurred bubble
