It WAS the wrong house. At the very least, it was the wrong house at the moment they idiotically decided to raid.

Idiotically? The search warrant on 'momma's house' was in addition to the one on the alleged drug dealer's house. This would logically imply that they were WATCHING his house. So... what to do.. Hey Honey, it's off to Momma's house we go. When is she 'out' for several hours ?

Nothing illegal, no additional evidence nor the individual were found.

As you say, "at the moment".

An innocent person's property was destroyed, an innocent dog killed and the property left unsecured.

If you're performing a raid that involves forcibly entering a property, you must be 100% sure that what you are looking for is inside and that no innocent people will be harmed in the process. Not 99.99999%, but 100%. It’s called investigation, surveillance and police work.

You’re putting innocent people’s lives in your hands because breaking into a home automatically invites deadly force. Countless people have been killed by such “mistakes” with no punishment for those involved. I worked in jobs where one mistake could have killed people. I made sure to check every single thing countless times before authorizing anything. If I made one such mistake, I would never work in the industry again and would be subject to criminal and civil charges. Cops and Judges should be held to an EVEN HIGHER standard.

If they do not find what is explicitly stated in the warrant, someone clearly did not do their job. All those involved in such “mistakes” should be fired and charged with the relevant crimes committed during the “mistake”- property crimes, burglary, murder, assault and/or animal cruelty.

Free nations cannot stand for such fishing expeditions, even for “super evil” things like drugs. The property owner is lucky these thugs didn’t “throw down” some evidence on her property and lock her up like often happens in the NYPD: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2095772/Cowboy-cop-Jason-Arbeeny-planted-crack-couples-car-seat-escapes-jail.html

Of course, the thugs never get jail time. Even after admitting to taking away freedom from innocent people like the piece of sh** cop in the article I posted. He should have been publically humiliated and executed as an example to all the corrupt cops.
