U.S. Marshals Draw Guns on Bradenton Mother, Baby After Knocking on Wrong Apartment [FL]
WFLA ^ | Oct 27, 2021 | Jeff Patterson

Posted on 10/27/2021 11:32:50 AM PDT by nickcarraway

A young Bradenton mother says she was in fear when she looked at her Ring App and saw armed men at her door.

Kada Staples says the men had their weapons pointed at her door and when she said hello, they ordered her to come out and said “we know he’s in there”.

The armed men were U.S. Marshals. Staples believes they were looking for a murder suspect, but they had the wrong apartment. At the time she opened her door and still didn’t understand what was going on.

Florida elementary school principal arrested after driving BMW at neighbor, flipping them off, deputies say “I cracked the door open and they pushed the door open and pushed me and my baby out of the way. They are holding us at gunpoint, screaming, there is a gun about a foot away from her face, ” said Staples as she held her three-month-old baby.

She said the U.S. Marshals kept saying,” We know Jamar is in there.”

“With that, they run in my apartment. There’s probably 6 or 7 of them out there with guns. 3 or 4 of them run into my apartment and are running around. They are still yelling at me that I’m lying,” said Staples.

She says she had been napping with her infant and was the only one inside when the Marshals soon realized their mistake.

“Then one of the guys in the hallway is like, wait, this is apartment and then said my apartment number and then kind of repeated it again and then they ran out and said, that’s the wrong apartment,” said Staples.

Don’t change your voicemail: Ignore that viral Facebook post and do this instead She says the Marshals left, but never even apologized for their actions or their mistake.

“No sorry, no nothing, they tell me, you’re good and another one said you’re fine,” said Staples.

She says when she called the U.S. Marshals Service to ask why officers had entered her apartment, she asked if they could provide a mental health counselor to help her deal with the anxiety brought on by the event.

She says a man on the phone told her to take melatonin and “get over it.”

8 On Your Side has called and emailed the U.S. Marshals service to find out why officers were at the wrong apartment and to find out if the officers involved will face any discipline. The U.S. Marshals Service and the U.S. Department of Justice have not responded.

What does this have to do with the story? Oh, I see, it's just a careless FReeper not being careful enough with cut and paste.

I suspect the Preview button still works. Yep, sure does. Just used it myself before I posted this.

One of my buds here in Hollywood used to be US Marshall and didnt want any part of it. He made more money as a bounty hunter and film adviser. As a bounty hunter, you have to be extremely careful because you do this and it’s the wrong place, you WILL get sued. Sorry aint gonna cut it.

More dirty cops at the federal level. I am beginning to believe they are all dirty at that level.

“Suppose a husband had been in another room, heard men breaking in, and did what he has the right to do, defend his wife and kid, and self with the required level of force. What if he did what was right and just? He would be dead and possibly the woman and child.”

I’d expect had someone resisted the armed goon squad that they’d have been killed and then the woman would have been ‘accidentally’ killed or else arrested on bull$hit charges to make it look like the raid and killings were justified. The goons would cook up a narrative, the media would suck it up, and a bunch of jack boot lickers would parrot the story.

I hate to say but the answer here is for people who can pull it off is to make your home into a fortress.

I used to think the preppers who had bunkers were paranoid.

Now I take notes.

That’s good advice.

In such a situation it’s also good advice to attach the clackers to your Claymores.

Clowns are supposed to be funny.

These feds showed themselves to be armed idiots.

Her dog is only alive because she caged it before she let them in. If they had decided not to wait then the dog would have definitely been shot.

The FDIC is corrupt as the rest. They have entirely proved that in recent times. They are just another arm of the deep state. The FDIC is responsible for approving killer vaccines. Now even in small children. The FDIC is responsible for keeping Covid treatments from the public. They are scum.

Police pistols are like Gurkha knives. Once drawn, they must taste blood before being put back up. Dog blood is good as any. Sometimes just for the hell of it they [the Police] shoot both the person and dog. Or as in the Harding Street incident in Huston, Texas, they shoot both people. Bottom line is that the Police just like to shoot. And they get away with it too. Unless it is a Black person they shoot. They also lie to dislocate old ladies who have dementia shoulders. if you enjoy living it is best to stay away from them.

The County Sheriff should give the US Marshall’s Service written notice that they are no longer allowed to operate in his jurisdiction without prior written approval.
