Friday, the informant told investigators he or she had not bought any drugs at the home and had not been involved in any work leading up to the raid.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Isnt it more likely the informant lied?
On one of the early threads someone asserted that to get such a warrant the cops would have to search the informant before the buy, keep him under solid surveillance going into and out of the buy, and search him immediately after the buy.
Either someone lied about this procedure being followed, or the informant lied about buying drugs or the informant is lying about lying about buying drugs.
We know the cop was enabled to get away with a road rage murder, maybe he figured he'd be enabled to get away with a cold blooded home invasion murder or two?
What's the over/under on Internal Affairs clearing him?
No, because the informant had nothing to gain from telling the truth, and a lot to lose. At this point he certainly isn't on the "friendly source" list of the PD officers who were involved in the raid. And he knows that they will lie to set up a raid and then shoot two people that they knew should not have been the subject of a raid.
How would you feel about ratting out a group of corrupt cops involved in a double homicide vs. just going along with them?
The informant is in a tough place, telling the truth instead of going along with the lie is not something that benefits him or her.
Maybe, but not likely. Per the article there are several other informants who also said they had no interaction with the couple. The article also states that the heroin came from another source, not the couple or their house.
No its not actually
There is zero corroborating evidence in this no knock
Completely contrary to how Ive seen personally the DEA do such things
No video of the buy
No audio
No surveillance tapes
No affidavit after all
I mean damn what did they go on....
These red dog units have issues more than any other cops
They are too jacked
