I’d certainly be voting not guilty.

If officer and civilian safety is a concern...

Why not wait to detain the suspect outside the home, put him in a squad car and then execute search warrant?

Too simple I guess and they don’t get to play the role of Imperial Stormtroopers.

No drugs?

A grinder, would they regard my coffee grinder as drug paraphernalia?

Interesting, and a hopeful sign, that the occupants were not summarily executed, though...

No knock raids and the occasional loss of life are necessary to prevent criminals flushing evidence down the toilet. /s

How did it go wrong? From a government perspective?

Every no knock and informant thread deserves a mention about Kathryn Johnston.

People complain all the time that someone on deathrow maybe innocent.

Well, these people don’t get a trial, they just die.

“One cop slain and no drugs found. Yet we continue this no-knock insanity... “

It continues because most of the time, the dead person is the innocent citizen. Cops are fine with that. The city will write a check.

So, who shot the cops?

I’d give even money that it was other panicked cops.

"No Knock Warrant" is government-speak for "Armed Home Invasion."

Apparently most of these stupid cops get their training from watching cop shows on TV.
Getting shot really does hurt you dumbasses; you don’t just get a pretty little shoulder or leg bandage and then go out to have a drink with your cop buddies after work.

“a laptop computer, two walkie-talkies, a 9-mm pistol, and three cellphones”

Oh Crxx, I’m a dead man.

Thanks, bamahead.

>> raid that left one Killeen police officer dead and another injured

Unfortunate and unnecessary loss of life. I regret the casualties. Sadly, civilians are expendable with indifference as far as law/policy is concerned.
