This type of crime warrants a dynamic entry? Lemme guess, he was probably wearing the body armor while working as a repo man (and telling folks he's a cop).
Couldn't they just knock on his door and arrest him? Does every crime call for a battering ram these days?
Or just catch him when he's leaving or coming home.
So they, the UBER SWAT Local Yokel Anti Terrorist and UFO Watch unit can’t just ask the guy to
A. Not say he is a cop
B. Or ask him if he said so.
C. Or just charge him and serve him and see him in court and have a he said, he said case
But TWO police departments, say 10 guys, three or four supervisors, three or more vehicles, a judge, a warrant issued by the prosecutors office....
WTF.
Those town have way.....way too many cops and not enough good McDonald’s counter help.
