Our house was raided by mistake by the King County SWAT Team. Fortunately, I was not home since they were looking for a man. They pointed loaded guns at my wife and our dogs. No one was hurt, but my wife was pretty shaken up and they made a mess out of the house. I never could get a straight answer out of them as to what had really happened.
I am so sorry that happened to your wife.
But I don’t consider the raid a “mistake”.
A “mistake” is bumping a glass of tea off the counter with your elbow.
Forcing yourself into someone’s house is not a “mistake” but an act of willful intent.
The purpose of such raids is to condition honest, law-abiding citizens into a state of fear.
If they really wanted to catch the man they were looking for, they would do honest police work and not kick down doors for the thrill of it.
