That’s not how justice works.
A cop exercising good reason shouldn’t be held criminally liable for a mistake. Just the same as you shouldn’t if you acted reasonably and defended yourself. Whoever made the mistake of pointing then to that house may be criminally liable. They’re all certainly civilly liable. At least the department is. Criminality requires recklessness or malice of some sort and not simply “something bad happened”.
But having a drumhead trial isn’t how justice works.
"A cop exercising good reason shouldnt be held criminally liable for a mistake."

Did you just get off the truck in this country?? In the Real World Innocent people are put on trial every single day for exercising reasonable judgement, it is only if you have a magic blue costume are you spared the trial.
So why exactly do you believe in special rights for special people??

It is reckless that the cops involved never did bother to learn the difference between and even numbers and odd numbers.
On a North/South Street:
Standing facing North, all houses on the Right, or East side of the street, are ODD Numbers. Those on the Left, or West side of the street, are EVEN Numbers.
On a East/West Street:
Standing facing East, all houses on the Right, or South side of the street, are ODD Numbers. Those on the Left, or North side of the street, are EVEN Numbers.
It all seems rather simple.
