I felt this deserved posting...others can feel free to add other victims of no-knock raids that aren't listed here. If the mods think this doesn't belong here, they can delete it.

Bump. Somebody should create a Web site dedicated to kno-knock raids.

I'm sure you will get a bunch of responses along the lines of "all the damn hippie scum should be killed and their parents too, so there!".
Ah, too bad we don't live in a Republic where the citizens are protected by a Bill of Rights anymore. That must be some alternate universe.

Modesto 11-Year-Old Was Killed In Drug Raid.

The family of an 11-year-old Modesto boy killed in his home during a narcotics sweep has settled a wrongful-death lawsuit against the city and several of its police officers for $2.55 million. The total is in addition to the $450,000 settlement the family will receive from the federal government for the boy's death.

San Francisco lawyer Arturo J. Gonzalez, who represented the family of Alberto Sepulveda, said Wednesday that the $3 million total settlement is believed to be the largest paid by government for the wrongful death of a child.

[Conservative til I die]

The WOD needs to go, but that Aguilar fella, he died of his own stupidity. A guy is parked near your house so you go get a gun to scare him off of public property? What a kook. He pretty much deserved what he got. Don't go pulling guns on people without being prepared that they'll pull one on you in self defense. ALso, don't try and be a macho man and scare people away.

If I was a gun owner and some guy came out with a rifle because he didn't like where I was standing, I'd sure as hell pump a few holes in him too.

Now list the names of those who died because of drugs. Start with the fetuses or infants of drug users and drug criminals and work up from there. Leave out the inane rationalizations — they are not nearly as humorous as what alcolholics say.

What ever happened to minding your own business? It seems to have gone the way of the U.S. Constitution which is so much toilet paper these days.

What adult human beings ingest is thier own business and no one elses. I might add that the pharmaceutical industry should be deregulated. One should not have to get a physicians permission to ingest *anything*.

You go, girl.

I have a friend who got busted for growing eight marijuana plants in her back yard. They picked her up using a $10,000,000 CAMP heliocopter that was flying overhead.

The next thing she knew, she was face down on her floor in hand-cuffs. Twelve swat team people were in her house in full riot gear, complete with automatic guns that were drawn.

This makes sense?

Man sentenced for role in drug ring

4 law officers previously pleaded guilty in case

Associated Press

GREENSBORO - A Lexington man will serve a nine-month sentence for his involvement with a drug ring that revolved around four law enforcement officers.

Jonathan Eric Apt, who pleaded guilty in May to conspiring to distribute marijuana and steroids, will be under house arrest for the final four months of his sentence. During that time he will be under electronic surveillance but will be allowed to go to work. During a federal court hearing Tuesday, he was also ordered to pay a $4,000 fine.

Apt and two others, Chad Douglas Wilson and Elizabeth Ann Harward, were arrested after six others -- including three Davidson County sheriff's deputies and an Archdale police officer -- were arrested in December.

Former Davidson County deputies William Rankin Jr., 32, David Scott Woodall, 34, and Douglas Edward Westmoreland, 49, and ex-Archdale police officer Chris Shetley pleaded guilty to a variety of charges and were sentenced in July.

BTW - people in NC are very familiar with Davidson county and their Sheriff. These guys will be severely punished.

Even those who did and do engage in drug use do not warrant death. It was (and is) a personal choice and it was (and is) individual's own bodies.

It was an is against the law, too. What they warrant is prison, where we've got a lot of them and intend to put more of them every day until this complete disregard of the law stops.
