Henderson police arrested a family for refusing to let officers use their homes as lookouts for a domestic violence investigation of their neighbors, the family claims in court. Anthony Mitchell and his parents Michael and Linda Mitchell sued the City of Henderson, its Police Chief Jutta Chambers, Officers Garret Poiner, Ronald Feola, Ramona Walls, Angela Walker, and Christopher Worley, and City of North Las Vegas and its Police Chief Joseph Chronister, in Federal Court.

Ain’t that Amerika....
They think it is their right and have completely forgotten who they work for.
I think Nevada forgot about that quartering troops in homes prior to kicking the Brit’s butt .....
Holy crap. You have to read the entire thing, it’s absolutely insane. This is like something out of a 3rd world Hell Hole.
I once had a cop who parked in my drive way occasionally with his radar gun, he asked my permission first, which I readily gave to him, to stop a few local teenagers from speeding down this residential street.
“Nice dog you have there. It would be a shame if anything happened to it ...”
Naturally, because their legitimate role to play in a marital dispute is undefinable, the police are on their worst behavior in all directions, including doing domestic violence to the neighbors.
The incident will not be repeated. Anywhere.
The only weapon people have against these tyrannical police depts is to sue them out of existence. They have no respect for the people or laws.
Sounds like a case of severe domestic abuse.
“You have to read the entire thing...”
I did and I am beyond stunned. They not only aimed their guns at the homeowner but shot him with “pepper balls” (not sure what that is...) Yeah and they did shoot his dog with the same things. I really just loved /s the part when they made the homeowner crawl to them and called him as “a&&hole”. Lovely. I hope they lose their jobs and do time over this... it is an absolute outrage.
More a 4th Amendment issue than a 3rd....
So now we will need protection from the protection that is now
Charged with our protection.
Over the last several years, more and more of these types of abuses are taking place.
Many times, the officers are on video either roughing up folks, shooting dogs, illegal entries.
I dunno bout y’all, but it appears the cops seem hyper-vigalent. Everyone is a potential suspect.
You're only taking taxpayer money. The officers don't care. They must lose their own money, their jobs, and maybe their freedom... THEN things might change.
Guess they all went to the FBI-VA School of Stupid. (see article about water turned to beer)
In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district wherein the crime shall have been committed, which district shall have been previously ascertained by law, and to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; to be confronted with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor, and to have the Assistance of Counsel for his defence.
-—at least they are still alive to sue , unlike several other victims of police violence in the greater Clark County area——
