I am getting really concerned about these types of stories.
I read at least one a week, where cops dressed up like burglars (or a military squadron) kick in somebody's door and shoot an innocent person. This has happened here several times, once an elderly man was shot in Tennessee when cops kicked down his door (wrong address) in the middle of the night and he jumped out of bed and grabbed a gun to defend himself.Usually, if there is a dog present, it is also shot.
I don't know if this woman was innocent, but I suspect it is another such case.
The cops can't seem to arrest illegal aliens (many violent criminals) that are crawling that area, but they have time for this? I realize cops have a dangerous job, but could they not have STAKED out that house to see who was there, coming and going?
"I am getting really concerned about these types of stories."
Ditto. I have close friend who had a not so friendly encounter with plain clothes cops on his property in the dead of night. He owns a landscaping business, and has lots of trucks and equipment that he stores next to his property.
It seems that one of his workers backed a truck into a customer's car, and just left. No injuries, just property damage. His worker never told the boss, my friend. Anyway, in the dead of night, my friend heard people poking around his equipment. Fearing that he was going to have equipment ripped off again, he threw on the outside floodlights and walked out with his handy bat. He met the cops, in plain clothes, with guns drawn. They were investigating the crime. My friend could have easily been shot if he had a shotgun in hand.
And, the story ended like this: His insurance paid for the damage to the customer's property, and he fired the worker.
I agree with you 100%. Given that their job is dangerous, one would think that they would spend some more time getting the details to make sure something doesn't go gravely wrong.
