ALL HAIL THE WAR ON (some) DRUGS!!!
as for arrests, they could be forthcoming. these people do not seem to be flight risks.
How quickly do you think they would've been able to dispose of 32 lbs. of pot?
i do not think the cops knew it was the mayors house and as soon as they figured it out, politics came into play and they backtracked perhaps. if this was just some family, they would have all been in cuffs, IMHO.
No, really? LOL!
criminality was afoot in this house, the cops chose to handle it a certain way, and no one was hurt.
Now who's Monday-Morning QB-ing?
How do you (or the cops involved in the raid) know there was criminality? They didn't investigate the intel they got from the snitch? They took it as face value. You said so yourself. You wrote it happens all the time.
You do not yet know that they weren't set up, yet have no problems pronouncing them as criminals. Or, were they merely criminals who hadn't been caught yet?
I have a saying and I've yet to see it proved wrong. There's two types of cops in this world. Those who've been caught in their lies and those who have yet to be caught.
Sound familiar, Mr. JBT?
if your neighbor was receiving packages like this, would you want the cops to do something about it?
No, I would not. My neighbor's business is not my business. But, then I'm not one the animals that thinks I'm a little more equal than the other animals in the barnyard.
sorry brother, you just lost me. read the story. there was no snitch. it was a drug dog in arizona who smelled the package. so the whole 3rd party set-up thing is pretty much a non-issue.
i was referring to other no-knocks that rely on info from less than church-going individuals.
but this looks like a decent hit.
and i was not monday morning QB'ing. i was just stating the facts, not interpreting them and 2nd guessing them.
if your neighbors were dealing drugs, you don't think that is any of your business? HA! that's funny. i'd love to introduce you to some of the people who would be stopping by to purchase their drugs, and casing your house as they did it. you're a riot.
and i speak german. your accent is way off.
