Looks more like an occupying army than a police force.
Some department also violated the Third Amendment in some state. I kind of have the feeling it will get incredibly bad before the situation gets better.
Any fingerprints on the drugs?
Did they find lots of money?
Did they find any scales?
Did neighbors mention lots of foot traffic?
Did the dead people ever get drug tested at work?
Did they have drugs in their bodies?
Were they drunk or high when they got murdered?
Inquiring minds want to know......

Never mentioned, probably not.

No.

No.

No.

work?
The Husband was retired. Do not know about the wife.
Did they have drugs in their bodies?
No mention of toxicology reports that I have seen.

Same answer as above.
Sounds like a grand jury investigation I would like to sit on.
I have lots of question
The serious crime fighting takes place with the plain clothes troops. And informants are their best tool prevent crime. It takes years to organize an undercover operation. I don't think that information is required to investigate this fiasco.
He is clearly threatening your life, how much worse could it be unless he opened fire?
It’s Houston .... corrupt and insolent about it.
The Houston mayors and police chiefs have been leftist weirdos for a decade or two. Maybe this explains their incompetence, corruption, and sexual pandering to gays.
I live in the Houston area and the reporting down this way indicated only a small amount of pot was found in this house. No scales, no heroin...no nothing that would point to sale/distribution.
This was a botched raid, based off of crappy intelligence from unreliable informants. The cops busted in to a home, the homeowner fought the intruders...he, his wife and dog were murdered. Plain and simple.
Now, add insult to injury, HPD is attempting to tamp down the evidence (obstructing justice) in order to protect themselves. Good grief.
The kicker, of course, is that most of the informants are either folks that have been arrested and squeezed for information, or are just fictional constructs of the cops.
It is the latter set, the product of a conspiracy of perjury, that need to be brought to light.
Unfortunately this double murder by the police has opened a big box of issues. It’s now thrown 2000+ cases into the spotlight of possible corruption.
The incident remains under investigation by the Houston Police Department, the FBI, and the Harris County District Attorney’s Office, which has also launched a review of more than 2,200 of Bryant and Goines’ cases.
Both of the cops leading this raid have retired quickly. They ruled the death of Rhogena Nicholas a homicide. No residue on either of the dead citizens hands. So the cops shot each other plus put 8 rounds in Dennis and 5 rounds in Rhogena.
These cops may have been very dirty and were enriching themselves with their efforts.
In addition.
I agree with you - you don't THINK, and it shows.
Two people are dead because of false "informant" information and a cover-up thereafter.
“I’m wondering if the consumer quantities of drugs found were planted by the cops.”
That happened to a grandmother in Atlanta a few years back. Cops kicked in the door based on info from an “informant”. Grandma was hard of hearing, grabbed her pistol, and the cops ventilated her. No drugs were present so the cops thoughtfully provided them.
That time the cops were caught and sent to prison.
That time.

It’s hard to turn over the names of imaginary informants who give anonymous tips precisely when they’re needed by crooked cops who want a pretext to kill people.
An update.

HPD hands over narcotics division files in raid investigation
Monday, June 24, 2019 10:59PM
HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) — Files dating back years involving Houston police’s narcotics division are heading to the district attorney’s office.
Late last week, the Harris County District Attorney’s Office demanded records about all confidential informants dating back to 2014, as part of the botched no-knock raid of a couple’s home on Harding Street in southeast Houston.
On Monday, the district attorney’s office said thousands of files were received and will be reviewed.
“An agreement has been reached for remaining records to be provided next week,” said Dane Schiller, the district attorney’s office spokesman.
The files requested include the names of informants, locations of buys, payouts to those informants, who approved those payments and who signed off on any operations.
The scope of the request is not limited to just the Harding Street raid, according to the DA’s Office, but is related to all confidential informants used by HPD Narcotics Squad 15 from January 1, 2014 to the present.
